"Magical Touch Painting was in communication from the initial start of the painting to completion. They were very responsive to my question and their knowledge of painting product and experience made me very comfortable they were the right company for the job. They cleaned up and were in direct communication every step of the process I will definitely use them again and I’m recommending them to my neighbors and friends"

"I ve used TPT Painting to paint 2 of my homes. Each time I left him unsupervised and gave him full access to my home. He and his crew were professional. They do a great job and clean up before leaving for the day."

"The difference between Sky Painting and other companies is that they take pride in their job. Pablo, the owner, does the paint job himself along with his coworkers. The job quality is consistent because they donâ t subcontract to others. Pablo is professional and detail oriented. I have used Sky Painting for exterior and interior painting jobs. They did excellent jobs on both at reasonable prices. I highly recommend Sky Painting."

"Steven is very professional, polite, and honest, honesty being of the utmost importance to me followed by quality workmanship. He provided a fair estimate for an exterior stucco repair. His team (Thank you Mart) completed the job on schedule, left nothing to clean up, and finished the project slightly below budget! I am very satisfied with the work. I will have them back soon for another project. Update 5.11.20 - I wanted to add that Petra Painting returned to completely paint the exterior of my 30+ yr old home, including exterior walls, doors, trim, gutters, and the garage door. The crew was excellent. Started with a thorough pressure cleaning and prepped the foundation to paint below the grass height, then caulked all cracks and blemishes. Primer and paint applied neatly, virtually no mess. Repaired, sealed, and painted the chimney top too. Also cleaned, primed and pained the patio and ceiling. Steven and his crew are friendly, professional and dedicated to providing excellent service and completed the job in a timely manner. Best decision I have made regarding painting professionals. Highly recommend!"

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.
