"Jose and his crew are very thorough, and Jose is detailed and helpful throughout the entire process. I was satisfied with the interior painting his company did that I hired him again to paint the exterior, which needed extra work. They finished the work in a timely manner, and I was pleased with the results."

Customers say: Super punctual

"The weekend M&M Painting completed an exterior painting project at my primary residence. Rotted wood and siding was replaced, pressure washing of driveway and siding walk, gutter cleaning was done along with painting of the entire house. They were prompt, very knowledgeable, and friendly. They made sure we were taken care of. Very reliable and affordable. Will use this company again for future projects. Very pleased."

"This was a great experience from START TO FINISH. Mr. Drew Showed up early for the estimate. He and Cornelius were honest and professional. The project was a Deck Repair and my confidence in their abilities led me to hire them to remove the wallpaper and paint two bathrooms. The price was fair, he gave me updates throughout and he and Cornelius completed the project on time. I will definitely recommend them to others and they are my GO-TO business for future home projects GREAT JOB"

FAQs for painting projects in Locust Grove, GA

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.
