"Saul and his crew did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. They were clean, fast and paid attention to details. They power washed, repaired stucco, caulked all joints, masked, used drop clothes everywhere and painted stucco and trim. All painted lines were sharp and clean. They didn’t even damage any roof tiles. Couldn’t be happier and I highly recommend them."

"I recently hired Rex Painting Inc. for a paint job, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The team was professional, on time, and paid great attention to detail. They did a fantastic job prepping, painting, and cleaning up afterward—everything looks clean and flawless."

"I'm always a little nervous hiring a new contractor but I had a good feeling about Bryan and I could not be happier with how things turned out. We had some bedrooms painted and new baseboards installed, and also some drywall repair and everything looks great. They covered furniture and flooring well while they were working and were very professional."

"We hired Greg and the team at Fercho's to paint our home. It needed extensive stucco repairs, including matching of a pattern, and lots of prep work before they could even get started. Other painters told us someone else had to get the place ready to paint. Not Fercho's! They did the whole job start to finish, with an incredible attention to detail. You can see the pride Greg takes in his work! Stucco, soffits, garage door, front and back doors - all perfectly painted - looking like new. They cleaned up at the end of each day - meticulously. We are very happy with the work and the price. We have already started thinking about an interior project... It will be with Fercho's. Our house after Fercho's restored it."

"He fixed all the cracks on my Spanish home! He primed some areas, then he added a special chemical to his paint so water doesn't penetrate the home . He was so reasonably priced! They prepped the home before hand so they didn't spill a drop, very clean! I had something was missed, and they came right out no problem no extra charge! I'd rate a ten if I could!"

FAQs for painting projects in Palomar Mountain, CA

Most homeowners opt for semi-gloss or high-gloss paint to make the baseboards stand out against the walls. If you’d rather keep things subtle, matching the wall sheen with eggshell or satin also works well. When your trim has nicks or dents, reach for a flatter, matte finish—it hides minor imperfections better than a shiny coat.

Stripping old paint from trim costs $1 to $3 per linear foot. Pros use specialized tools and techniques to lift away existing layers without gouging the wood, then prep the surface for a fresh finish. While it adds to your budget, proper removal protects the molding and sets the stage for a smoother, longer-lasting paint job.

Tackling the baseboards first often leads to crisper lines. Painting trim first lets you tape off the boards instead of the walls, so you’re less likely to splatter color where you don’t want it. Any stray marks on the wall get covered when you roll on the final coat, making the whole process faster and tidier.

You can absolutely paint baseboards in place. Leaving them installed avoids the risk of cracking or misaligning the boards when they’re reattached. With thorough cleaning, light sanding, and careful taping, a pro—or an experienced DIYer—can achieve a sharp, factory-smooth finish while saving you the hassle of prying off and reinstalling trim.

Painting almost always beats replacement in cost. Swapping out baseboards runs about $150 in DIY materials or roughly $1,100 with a pro, while repainting costs about $50 in supplies and $1 to $5 per square foot for labor. Unless the boards are warped or severely damaged, a fresh coat delivers the same visual upgrade for a fraction of the price.

Paintable caulk and wood filler are the go-to fixes for nail holes in baseboards. Wood filler sands flush for a glass-smooth surface, while caulk provides a flexible seal that won’t crack as the house settles. Either way, patching those tiny divots before you prime ensures your finished baseboards look seamless.
