"Eric is the owner of EJ painting. He is honest and hardworking. His prices are the best and his work always out shines the more expensive competitors. Eric works in my house when I am work and he leaves my house as clean as when he started. He has painted and done sheet rock in the majority of my home. He also power washed my garage floor! He’s extremely versatile and aims to please. I have never once been disappointed in his work. I will be hiring him again to do my bathroom next. A+"

"Jeff and his crew were outstanding. They arrived promptly, prepared each room before painting and painted five rooms and two hallways in 2 1/2 days. They were friendly, very neat and my condo looks fabulous. Couldn’t have asked for more. I would highly recommend Jeff and his crew and would definitely hire them again, should the need ever arise. Thanks Jeff and crew ~ great job!!"

"I was impressed. They showed up on time. Did the work on a house that hadn't been power washed since the siding went on 20 + years ago. They also cleaned out my gutters. Now the house looks great and I would definitely recommend them to others! They are also doing some other work for me and so far that work looks good as well!"

"Everything exceeded expectations! I called Juan and his team in to paint pretty much my whole house as I had just moved in and it needed some refreshing. They were very professional, punctual, and flexible. They came in, knew exactly how to do the job as efficiently as possible and left with a smile. 5 stars!"

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.
