"B & M Painting did some drywall repair, painting, and recaulking our crown molding. It did a great job and the crew were very professional, efficient, and friendly. Billy was very reasonable and pleasant to work with. Looking forward to hiring B&M Painting again. I highly recommend it."

"Wow! Not sure how to say it more...just wow! Edwin, Leo, and the Pena team are amazing. They painted the exterior and interior of my home. Took about 2-weeks which isn't bad for such a big job. They were pleasant, experienced, and went over and beyond my expectations. On the exterior of my home, they found rotten wood behind my chimney (which I never would have seen) and replaced the wood immediately. In the interior of my home, they moved heavy furniture to paint behind. Absolutely amazing! I chose wisely with Pena Brothers. I would hire them again without hesitation. I highly recommend Pena Brothers Construction. Thank you Edwin and team for a job well done. Extremely pleased with the outcome."

""Pete the painter" was incredibly patient with us as we had to push back the job a number of times owing to snafu's with other contractors. He was great about communications - always prompt to answer questions, fair, and very professional. Recommended paint for us and had us use his account to get the discount! We are already talking to him about an exterior paint job! Could not recommend him more!"

"I had Premium Coat Painters paint the outside of my house and they did a really good job. I?m not the best with this kind of stuff, but I could tell they knew what they were doing. They showed up on time, fixed up the old paint, and made my house look way better. The outside looks fresh and clean now, and my neighbors even noticed it. The crew was nice, cleaned up after they were done, and made the whole thing pretty easy for me. I?m very happy with how it turned out and would recommend them to anyone needing their house painted."

FAQs for painting projects in Shepherdstown, WV

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.
