"The Marioni crew were amazing! The service was top notch! Removing wallpaper from 3 large areas and one small area was no easy task. They did the job and it looked fantastic. The painting was flawless. Above all, the crew were so accommodating to my special needs brother."

"I found Alcantara Painting through Instagram, I followed their work for a while and both my husband and I decided to give them a chance to paint our concrete porch floor and painting our front door. Frank was very professional and punctual the day he came to give me our estimate. While Frank was there giving us our estimate I asked him to also quote me on painting our living room high ceiling walls, which needed SO MUCH work (we have 2 boys so you can imagine), and installing shutters. The interior paint job was supposed to be a project for the near future, but we could not pass the AMAZING deal that Frank gave us, so we decided to go through with everything. The day Frank and his brother David and their crew arrived I was only expecting them to start on the exterior paint job but they actually prepped for the interior also. Everyone in the crew was 100% professional and friendly. We felt very comfortable with them, super sweet and funny and down to earth! The entire job was completed in 3 days including them having to come back for the third day because one set of shutters did not arrive on time. We have found our exclusive painting company and have recommended and will continue to recommend this company from here on out. Definitely give them a call!"

"The owner, Chris, was always responsive to my calls and questions. They did what they said they were going to do and I was extremely pleased with the patching of cracks prior to finish painting. They took pictures of each room before they started, covered all furniture and protected the floors. After the painting was completed, they reset all furniture, wall hangings and other items in the same location using the photos for reference. I would strongly recommend this company."

"Angel is a pro. In addition to interior painting, he accommodated our request to remodel our kitchen master bathroom. He also went out of his way to ensure that all the appointments were done expertly. I would highly recommend his services."

"Iâ m so glad I picked this business for our painting project. They did an excellent job with interior painting and drywall. We needed extensive repairs to tray ceiling drywall in primary bedroom. It looks better than ever! Will definitely recommend this business to family, friends and neighbors."

"The pro you referred to me, Robert, was excellent on so many levels. He got 2 heavy sliding closet doors back into working order, put new door knobs into 2 of my homes entry doors, fixed my problematic kitchen sink, and installed a new spigot system and pipes for my bathroom sink. All his work was of high calibre. Robert himself was fully professional, patient, and polite. I also found his prices to be more than fair. I fully plan to have him back for other projects this spring (power washing my house and staining my deck)."

"We originally reached out to Home Techs to do repairs resulting from a flood. Joe got back to us right away and came out to view the damage within a few days. We expanded the original job to include replacing the floors throughout the downstairs, putting in a new bathroom, installing a new water heater, rebuilding a closet, fixing our heater/circuit board and replacing the thermostats. Joe kept us updated throughout the process. He was respectful and kind and did everything he could to keep us within our budget. We then hired him to do the roof. Thereâ s nothing he and his team canâ t do. It was a great experience and we heartily recommend Home Techs for all your home needs."

We are completely satisfied with A+ Professional Painting, their work, their crew and the difference it has made in our home.  The crew was punctual and did the work as described on their estimate: (1) they caulked, spackled & sanded EXTENSIVELY, (2) the precision of their lines was RIDICULOUS and (3) at the end of each day, they cleaned up after themselves.  I would describe our job as particularly difficult given the over-sized rooms, the 25+ foot ceilings in the foyer and living room and the picture frame moulding used extensively in the foyer.  A+ Professional Painting exceeded our expectations and our home looks AMAZING!  These guys are the BMW's of interior painting.  We will use them again and we will be recommending them to our neighbors and friends.

FAQs for painting projects in Rio Grande, NJ

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.
