"Revive Pro was a pleasure to work with. The owners were professional and easy to work with. The employees who painted our house were great and did a great job! We hired them to paint a large portion of the interior of our house, and we plan to hire them again in the future when we finish the painting. I could tell they wanted it to be right if they are going to put their name on it."

Several item had paint on, such as towel racks, door knobs, etc. for this expensive of a job I expected better. I was offered a $200 discount."

"Fantastic company. They did complete exterior painting, including staining large deck, metal railings, and complete refinishing of front door. They are committed to getting things right and are consummate professionals. I can't recommend highly enough. Our neighbors saw their work and hired them on the spot. Great company and we're very pleased with the results."

Great crew and great job. Over and above my expectations. Finished on time even after I added work. Harry is a man of his word. I will highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a reputable painting company."

"The team arrived early, worked late, only took on time scheduled breaks, did not waste time. Old roof and tarp and nails efficiently removed and taken off from property when job was complete. I have a complicated roof line and old roof was 10 years old. Whenever any rotted areas were found, crew did not try to hide anything, but surgically cut out bad and fitted new underlay precision. The interior painter, Miguel, who was correction stain damage inside while roof was being finished, was fast and proficient, protected intricate furniture, and put all furniture back in it's place after cleanup and removal of drop clothes. I am already recommending this team for two more roofing jobs, and more as they are heard about."

Customers say: Quality work

"I have worked with several contractors throughout the years. Johnny Gossett and his crew were, by far, the best of the best. We had the wall between our kitchen and living room removed, fully remodeled our kitchen, laundry/mud room, half bath, and our master bathroom. This was a large remodel on an older home. Any issues that were discovered from opening walls, were addressed immediately by having a knowledgeable contractor. Johnny went above and beyond to ensure that the work was done correctly and in a timely manner. His decorator shopped with us and guided us through the multiple choices for countertops, tile, backsplash, paint colors, light fixtures, hardwood floors, all while keeping us on budget. Johnny is a great communicator and had great ideas for some changes that we wanted to make. Remodels can be hard and inconvenient. Gossett & Associates made it easier by being efficient and professional. We liked and trusted each and every worker that entered our home. The end result exceeded our expectations! We will definitely hire Johnny and his crew for any future work."

FAQs for painting projects in Pelham, AL

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.
