"I highly recommend Dowell’s Painting, a contractor that was recommended to me. He did an amazing job painting my house, taking extra care to patch and caulk all the uneven areas before painting. He gave me choices in colors and finishes. The attention to detail really shows, what’s a difference… The finish is smooth, clean, and professional, and the place looks fantastic. Reliable, skilled, and thorough—couldn’t be happier with his work! Sonia S."

"We turned to Shaffer Painting to fix a botched job by the previous contractor who made a huge mess of our new concrete patio and benches. The Shaffer team was very neat, organized and pleasant to work with. They were great in working within our budget and even worked out their schedule to suit ours. They were able to stay on schedule and yet took the time to listen to exactly what we wanted or needed and were very helpful when we weren�t sure. They were also very patient in making any adjustments in color or design. The end result is fantastic and much more than we imagined. Overall, it was a very successful transaction!"

"Perry was on top of the project from the estimate to the finish. He stayed in contact with us through the entire project. He told us what he would do and was there when he said he would be. He managed his crew, the work was done professionally and we would recommend Pier and Son Painting to friends and neighbors. Very happy with the job well done! Dave & Annette"

"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 Volcano, 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.
