"The estimator was extremely professional and the quote was very detailed. When we have another painting requirement, CertaPro will be asked to provide another quote. Given the work quality of the company we hired, CertaPro will be more strongly considered the next time."

"Erskine does a fantastic job! He has divided a room into two for me, replaced windows and doors, built railings and installed grab bars, put in a beautiful kitchen backsplash, installed bathroom mirror/light fixtures, and repaired drywall and trim. Painting is next on the list! He is extremely professional and responsive and I feel like I have a true partner in my home renovations. As a bonus, he is also reasonably priced! Highly recommend!!"

"Requested service and same day estimate for a living room wall and a bathroom ceiling paint job. Very reasonable price and they completed the work as scheduled. It nice having a contractor/painter arrive on a date they agreed upon. After the painting was complete he even came by to touch up a problem area on my ceiling that was putting up a fight. Great communication and service and follow up. I’m already planning my next project with them so y’all get in line"

"Started off very strong, but finished weak. Great guys, but attention to detail lacking. Good for general help and would definitely use them again, but would not use them for painting detailed projects."

"Daniel from Roberts Restorations & Handyman Services did an outstanding job cleaning my gutters and taking down a huge tree in my yard. I was impressed by his professionalism and efficiency. Not only did he clear out the clogged gutters, but he also ensured the downspouts were flowing perfectly. The tree removal was a massive task, but Daniel handled it with precision and safety, leaving my yard cleaner than before. I highly recommend him for any handyman or landscaping needs?you won?t find a harder worker or better service! - Bryan"

"Recommended necessary repairs And explained them with pictures of damage."
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.
