"Due to favorable weather Liedel’s got started on our job earlier than expected and it progressed quickly. It took about three and a half days, in all. They were very professional and made our house look like a brand new house. Even the neighbors were impressed! I should mention that we had them paint white all the trim that was previously brown, so the price we paid included two coats of paint for he trim. I’ll try to upload a “before” photo as well as After.” At the end of the painting, Benjamin And Joey asked us to inspect the house with them. I couldn’t find a fault anywhere, but they found several places they weren’t happy with, so they fixed them. It’s nice to know your painter pays attention to detail! We have some interior work that needs to be done, and we will be calling Liedel’s for that."

"They found the paint colors we chose. Other contractors said they would have to wait as there is a paint shortage. They also cleaned up â everythingâ when they were done."
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.
