"Pacific Edge Painting did an outstanding job painting the exterior of our home. The crew demonstrated exceptional skill, attention to details, showed up when they promised, and were very organized and tidy. They went above and beyond in responding to additional work that was required to complete the job. Overall we had an outstanding experience in working with Pacific Edge Painting. I would highly recommend using them and will call them again for our next project."

"Everything went well, the work was completed as promised. I live out of town and only saw the finished product. My neighbors commented to me that the painters worked hard each day they were on the job site working on the mobile home. They also commented they were respectful of adjoining mobile homes. They did a great job and can be trusted!"

"DHR painting did a very nice job. We have a lot of trim work and all of it looks exceptional. Danny communicated well with us on timing and setting up a start date. The guys Brett and Scott doing the work were helpful and patient when coming across some color indecision mid job. My only negative would be they didn't always put in an 8 hour day and only seemed to work 3 days a week. They were supposed to have three guys painting, but only had two and often only one here at a time. The job could have been done faster if they had better team work. I was not in a rush so it turned out ok. All in all I would recommend them."

"Came and did an estimate for our deck railing. Scheduled a date, but the day before it looked like rain, so he initiated a change of date, then did the job then. No glitches, no problems. Seems professional and we plan to use him again."
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.
