"Luis and his team were great! He responded to my inquiry the same day, had a fair quote that evening and started the next day. Their work was thorough and conscientious. This is family business and each member is polite and very easy to be around. At all times, Luis’s team we’re tidy and respectful. When they were finished, everything was cleaned up extremely well. The quality of the work was very thorough and we are very happy with the outcome. Luis was not satisfied with one wall is returning to add a third coat at no extra charge. He is not just a perfectionist but was also very helpful and deciding on color. Great job! and lovely folks I would highly recommend Pro painting"

"Austin and Brian were great to work with. From estimate to completion, they were capable, careful and neat. We were so pleased with the end-product (wall finishing, trim staining/finishing, and texture painting). They also cleaned up after job completion to make our space look even better than when they began the job. I most highly recommend this company for your renovation and construction needs."

"Joe and Tina (Joe's Flooring and Painting) did an excellent job on our project! They were very clear in communication, budgeting and charged reasonable rates for quality work. They installed extra long vinyl plank flooring, baseboards, as well as remove and construct a new double wood staircase. They kept a clean work environment, were very polite and worked efficiently to complete the project in a timely manner. Would highly recommend Joe's Flooring and Painting for your flooring needs! Will definitely be hiring them again for their painting services this year."

"Jason, the owner, came and met us to discuss what we wanted done. He took the appropriate measurements and provided a detailed estimate a few days later (which included testimonials from prior customers). Once we selected him (from the 3 estimates we obtained) we scheduled the work at a time convenient for both parties. When the time came, the painter he sent, Keith Foskey, did a great job. It was apparent that Keith cared about his work and communicated well while he was here. All in all, we were very happy with the results and would use Summit Painting again.

"Saul was extremely curtious and friendly. Perhaps even morr importantly, he was skilled, diligent and hard working. We need dry wall repair, stucco, repair, deck repair, and wood refinishing. All was completed in a very professional manner. Highly recommended."

"Bob mixed his carpentry skills with his creativity and built a custom dining table and four stools to match for me. He was very communicative throughout the whole design process and his attention to detail did not go unnoticed. My table is the center point of my space and I couldnâ t be happier with the craftsmanship or the customer service. Thanks, Bob!"

"From my initial discussion with Antonio about my project to the conclusion of the work he was understanding of my requirements,was very professional in his communication and preparation of an estimate and he performed beyond my greatest expectations. He was truly a pleasure to work with. He assumed the initiative to achieve the best results beyond my expectations. My greatest appreciation to Azte-K painting and to HomeAdvisor for the recommendation."


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.
