"This is a follow up review on the work done by Atlanta Painting Company. I hired them to for exterior painting. The workmanship was fine but the cleaning up was sloppy. After they left I discovered that an upstairs soffit was left out. I called the company and the project manager arranged to replace the soffit as well as tidying up stains on the roof carefully. The work was nicely done to our satisfaction."

"Sofio and his team did a GREAT job. We requested they paint ceiling, trim, doors, and walls and he went above and beyond patching holes/sanding/staining other doors. He was willing to work with us and ensured the work was done well. Not only did they do a great job, they also work efficiently. Not to mention he provided all quality paint and supplies. I am so happy we chose this company. Will hire them again in the future for exterior work/floors. 10/10 recommend!"

"I couldn’t be happier with my experience using 360 Painting. From the initial estimate to the final walk-through, everything was handled professionally. The painters were courteous, hardworking, and very precise. They completed the job on schedule and left the space clean and spotless. If you’re looking for a trustworthy painting company that delivers top-quality results, 360° Painting of Dekalb County is the one."
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.
