"Mike installed a tub and shower surround. Fixed the drywall, plumbing, and insulation. He had to do work under our crawl space and tons of other small things to get our bathroom up and running. Was more than fair on pricing and completed everything in a timely manner. Will definitely have him complete any other jobs that pop up around the house!"

I had 2 strips of wallpaper taken down and painting done,I did not know that a ceiling had to cost more,I thought that was part of room painting. He could not give me a quote prior to doing ceilings. costing me more than I planned.he did do a good job but I had already bought some of the paint. .he was always on time.He borrowed my paint roller and proceeded to take it with him.I let him know he took it but has not been returned/HEadvertises senior discount but I dont think i got one.to future customers get the quote ahead of time.HE should have gave me a price on ceilings before hand not surprise me in the end."

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.
