Jesse, the owner, informed me on all steps needed, gave me a reasonable quote, and even helped me choose the right stain color. Jesse and his crew did an excellent job and we are very happy with the results. They efficient, thorough, and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for staining and painting services!"

"The experience with H&S painting was smooth. The crew showed up when Humberto scheduled and worked efficiently, quickly to complete the staining and paint job on the house prior to the targeted end date. Colors and staining came out just as expected. The crew was clean and courteous in the day to day interactions. Crew also identified a previous unknown issue with the fascia connection to power on the house so that was much appreciated. Very professional team. I highly recommend H&S painting to anyone considering painting and staining their house."

"I contacted Greg A. Bailor Drywall & Painting in September 2014 for interior texture and paint for a residential property built in 1911. When I called I was able to speak directly to the owner, Greg Bailor.  I explained that I was managing the renovation of the residence from Virginia, 2500 miles away. We discussed my needs at length and he scheduled a date the following week for a complete walkthrough of the house including the basement. He emailed a detailed estimate two days later.  That I was not able to be on site to see the progress would be a challenge, but he said it would be no problem and we both agreed good communication would be the key. His team started work three days later.
Over the next two weeks Greg and I were in contact almost everyday. He was great about keeping me updated on the progress of his team.  He and I also had many consults about the color scheme and texture for the interior of the house. He was very patient and walked me through many of his suggestions. In this case, I really left the creative eye to the professional and trusted his experience to deliver a beautiful result.  He did not disappoint. I was able to make a trip to Reno a few weeks later to see the work.  As I walked through the front door I couldn?t believe the stunning transformation throughout the whole house.  He really made it new again.
In February 2015 I contact Greg Bailor again to complete the final touch ups after the installation of new doors, a new kitchen and a new bath. He began work two weeks later and had the project finished in two days. Touch ups took a bit longer because the baseboards needed to be primed and repainted due to overspray of tung oil application by the hardwood floor refinishers.
Greg Bailor and his team were great to work with and extremely accommodating. Their professionalism and attention to detail are second to none.  I would hire Greg A. Bailor Drywall & Painting again and highly recommend them for any painting needs.  They do beautiful work at a fair price.

"This husband and wife team were top notch! They were always "positive" to all of my requests concerning the painting of the exterior portion of my house. We are very happy with the ways the colors came out for the house. They were very reasonable in the cost of doing the painting job. Would definitely hire them again!"

"Painter did an amazing job! Very professional and demonstrated a highly detailed paint job. He was on time and I really enjoyed how he brought his own color wheel and equipment and was able to consult with me on the best colors. He walked me though his process and then completed the job fast and efficiently. I love how the project turned out and it’s definitely worth the price. The price is very affordable because of his value he brings and years of experience and job that is highly professional. I will gladly recommend him to anyone! Derrick is a real pleasure to work with and anyone would be happy to have his services."

FAQs for painting projects in Tahoma, CA

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.
