"David Hitchman painted our six unit condos and waterproofed our decks. He was thorough in his preparation and exacting in his painting and waterproofing . And he delivered exactly as he indicated in his bid. In fact, I have hired him, independently from the HOA, to paint my bedroom. I highly recommend him to other clients."

"Alex responded quickly for a RFQ on deck staining. Upon request, I sent pics to Alex for further review. He responded quickly stating deck just needed one more coat of stain. I will complete the project myself. Because of Alex’s quick response to my questions AND his honesty, he will be the first one I contact for any future deck projects. 5 star rating!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Jesse (owner) was great to work work. Communication was excellent throughout thr project. I felt confident that the work was top notch. Jesse took the time to explain to me the what's and why's of what they were going to do and helped with recommendations on long-term maintenance and care of my siding, how i should coordinate painting with other maintenance (i chose to install a new roof prior to painting, on Jesse's recommendation, plus need to replace windows in the near future). The crew was courteous and respectful, and I have recommended them multiple times since."

FAQs for painting projects in Kingston, WA

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.
