"He bid using Duration paint, used Super paint instead a cheaper paint. If you hire him, I would recommend asking if he is going to paint this and that at the start. He was not going to paint the concrete floor on the entrance to the house, although everything else was painted. After a heavy discussion about it, he agreed to paint the floor, if I bought the paint. Where I was raised, when you are going to paint the exterior of a house, you painted all the exterior, not just the walls He is a nice man, but he did not inform me of the things, he wasn't painting and he is the pro not me."

"We had an outstanding experience with A1 Painting and I highly recommend them. From start to finish Anthony and Scott were professional, punctual, and incredibly detail-oriented. The crew took great care preparing the space and protecting everything before they began, and their workmanship was excellent. The finished result looks fantastic and completely transformed the area. What really stood out was their professionalism and work ethic. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, kept everything clean, and made sure the job was done right. It’s clear they take pride in their work. If you’re looking for a painting company that delivers high quality results and excellent service, A1 Painting is a great choice. We would absolutely hire them again. Mrs. Williams"

This can be prevented. If your paint is peeling and the caulk has separated? You need a painter.
Condo refresh
This was the most damaged part of the door. Bondo + a lot of sanding and 4 coats of paint. I also loved the color choice by the home owner.

"Extremely happy with the job. Bluefox Painting washed the tile roof of our single-family home, pressure washed, repaired and painted the entire exterior walls, including the garage door, the exterior lamps, all the trim and the main door. The crew was here with a supervisor on time and on the day we had scheduled. We had no issues with the job nor the paint colors that were chosen. Top-notch service and quality of the job, we highly recommend them."

"Innovation Custom Painting recently repainted the exterior of my two story home in Venice, FL I hired them based on the recommendation of a neighbor here in the Watercrest subdivision, as well as the great job I saw they did on his home, and the fair, affordable pricing. I was out of town for a month, so was not able to immediately check on the quality of the final painting, relying on the observations of a neighbor and the trustworthy reputation that Freddy, the owner, has earned in this community. Upon returning and carefully inspecting the house I was very impressed with the excellent painting and the reliable execution. Instead of a light coat of paint sprayed quickly on the stucco, Innovation Custom Painting rolled the paint on, giving a thicker, longer lasting coverage than most other painters who only spray. I am confident that this high quality paint job will last much longer than the thin coat that the builder sprayed on. I highly recommend Innovation Custom Painting!!!"

FAQs for painting projects in Sarasota, FL

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.
