"The detail to work is very professional. The owner and his crew are very polite as well as professional. They came in, cleaned and caulked everything first. Painted all of my windows, front and back porches, garage entry door and it all looks great. They also sanded to the bare wood my front door before staining and clear coating. They left everything very clean. The prices are very reasonable and the work is top quality. I would definitely recommend."

"I received four quotes to paint the exterior trim of our home. NJM's quote was literally half the price of the highest quote, and one of them said it was too cold to paint outside in December and said we should wait until March when the weather got warmer. NJM didn't have a problem with the cold weather and used Latitude paint. We picked out the color and they purchased the paint for almost half the price it would have cost us to buy it ourselves. NJM were on time, stayed late and got the exterior of a 3500 sq foot home painted in less than a week. The detail they put into the project was amazing. They pressure washed the trim, dormers and caulked every issue they found. Very flexible, good communication and great customer service. The house looks wonderful and we couldn't be happier with the result."

"We had southend do 5 rooms. 2 offices , a master bedroom with a large trey ceiling, a large bathroom with a barrel ceiling and a large closet. They are efficient, clean, very polite and did exactly what I asked them to. Down to picking up our bed to move it instead of dragging it as others have done. It’s a very large king. The Owner Todd Cahill called and discussed some questions I had and Billy the estimator and Otto the job foreman also answered all my questions and left me no doubt as to what would be accomplished. Thank you Southend painting for a beautiful job !"

"Kenia and her team did a great job! I hired them to paint my shutters and my garage door, as well as to revarnish my front door. Kenia was easy to communicate with, regarding scheduling. They showed up on time, were very neat and precise in their paint job, and did beautiful work! Everything looks brand new! They finished on time and cleaned up the work area. I am planning to get some interior painting done early next year and definitely hope to hire them again. Strongly recommended!"

"Garth came on time, and took care of all that I asked for. The curtain rod was falling off, it’s perfect now. The wall by the tub was moist and paint was peeling off, looks like new now. And multiple smaller items were fixed. Garth did a great job, had a pleasant demeanor, I would hire him again."

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.
