"Derik and his crew did a great job on resurfacing our bedroom doors, hardware, and repainting them. They look better than I expected! They also restored our old, heavily painted stair risers and sideboards to prepare for a carpet runner. These, too exceeded my expectations. Uncle D’s price was fair and a lot of work went into this project. I would recommend Uncle D’s painting to anyone!"

"I needed a quick turnaround wallpaper removal/new paint job for my mom?s room as I was in town for a short time. Five Star Painting got it done? a two-day, amazing transformation of her room! The FSP team moved the furniture away from the walls, taped all down airtight, and removed the old wallpaper and chair rail. They cleaned the *entire* work area so my mom was able to sleep in her own bed that night. Second day, they sanded down the dings, cracks, and imperfections in the walls, and had them freshly painted? in addition to the ceiling and closet ?by the end of the day! It looks like brand new drywall! They cleaned every speck of dust from their work area! The FSP team was always on time, worked fast, but also efficiently and professionally. I will definitely call FSP when my parents are ready to tackle the rest of the wallpaper in their other rooms. I highly recommend FSP for wallpaper removal and paint jobs. I would give them TEN stars if I could. Thank you, Five Star Painting team!"

FAQs for painting projects in Aurora, OH

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.
