"Work performed in a very timely manner and very detailed oriented. Will definitely be using them again. Our Front Porch had 3-4 layers of paint, all chipping. He transformed it, with our Exterminator even saying, “I noticed it right away. It just made it ‘pop’!” He was meticulous on the black railing as well. Thank you Generations Builders, LLC. Look forward to doing more business with you."

"I would rate a 5 on quality of work but I am a strict reviewer and just a few minor deficiencies. Specifically, didnâ t put blinds back in window and beam in living room ceiling was put back in place but side wood slightly separated. I put blinds back in 5 minutes and a few hits with a hammer and beam was ok. Overall, best handymen I have ever had. They knew what they were doing , price was reasonable and service very professional and reliable."

I would love the opportunity to paint for you. I’ve been painting for about 13 years now and I’ve done all types of jobs. I’ve got experience with most paints and stains and I believe I do good work. I work alone, but I work fast and I can do it all for a reasonable price.
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.
