"Jerry was a pleasure to work with. He went over the work that would be done, helped me pick a good door color, was on time, the communication between us was good, and the workers left things clean. There were no spots that were missed, but I could tell Jerry wanted to make sure I was satisfied as takes pride in his work. He was almost $1000 less than the other bid. I would recommend Jerry at O' Shea Painting."

Customers say: Quality work

"Rombyk painting did an excellent job. They are hard workers and pay attention to details. My house was overdue for painting, it required a lot of scraping and sanding., they worked long days getting it prepped for the paint. The price was good and stayed true to the original quote even with extra work. I will hire them again for any professional painting and recommend them to others."

"Getting our house repainted became quite the experience with Hedlund. Started off great, easy to work with team eager to make us happy. Ended with salt in our mouth, feeling like pulling teeth to get them to finish project they had started which took almost a year to complete and only if we stayed on top of it. Team was easy to work with on planning with details easy to understand and pricing inline with competitors. Primary paint days went good even when we changed color of gutters and trim after first day of paint. Had many touch up issues and team didn't appear to have much attention to detail on our project as multiple call backs as we continue to find issues. We did have a issue with Hedlund on the cost of the change paint requests since a written quote was never provided for the change, instead a bill twice what was discussed was presented at end of initial painting. We also had an issue with an entire side of our house and paint drying oddly, like a surfactant drying issue. This is where the frustration started with Hedlund as first we were asked to wait a few months to see if the paint would just fix itself. Then it was lets get the paint company out to see what the issue is. Then it was blame the siding on the house. Then it was lets try some alternate solutions. Then it was we forgot we hadn't completed your project for 6 months and never once attempted to stay in touch with us. Then it was alright you keep bugging us and contacted our owner so we will come back and work on this issue plus the new issues shared where paint not even a year old is already cracking, peeling and calking also not holding all around our house. Finally the one side of the house that wasn't finished was finished a year later along with all the new issues but when the cracking of paint on our back deck was redone it was done with the wrong paint (house paint not deck shark skin paint) and done without covering the below brand new concrete patio resulting in paint drips all over our new patio. A crew member came back out and poured paint thinner on our new patio and told us to just leave it for a few days. It ended up staining our patio in multiple places. Hedlund's response was "oh sorry". We were able to power wash most of it out ourselves thankfully but still can see it in some areas. We really like the paint color of our house. The way this company worked with us just got worse over time which was disappointing and frustrating and results in us not being able to recommend them to anyone."

"Vadim, the owner of Pacific Pro Painting was very professional from the moment we met him while giving us an estimate throughout the course of our project. They were prompt and courteous. Vadim and David did an amazing job painting our two story house and staining the deck! They asked us to do walk arounds a few times to make sure everything looked ok. They didn t hesitate to make a change on my deck even though it meant the project would take longer. They worked 12 hours days until the project was completed. The final result exceeded our expectations! We couldn t be happier! I plan to hire Pacific Pro Painting for some interior painting next! For amazing results, don t hesitate to hire the professional, prompt crew at Pacific Pro Painting!!!"

"These guys are great! I have a few cabinet doors that needed to be painted to finish up a kitchen cabinet refacing project we started before we moved into our condo. We reached out to multiple people to get a quote for painting just a few cabinet doors. We were on a budget, and I didn't think we'd be able to get the work done until we could save up more, but these guys are so nice that they offered to work with us on our budget - it truly felt like a Christmas miracle (I may have teared up, it was so kind)! They did a great job painting the cabinets and turned them around in just a couple of days, even though I told them they could take their time. In the future, we hope to repaint all the walls in our home, and I will reach out to Color Cat Painting when the time comes!"

FAQs for painting projects in Tacoma, WA

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.
