"Great, had my deck stained and house power washed, money well spent. Scott and his team have also painted inside my house and repaired a stair handrail and it was completed with great quality and a fair price."

"Marvin and his paint crew did an outstanding job painting the front and back of my house! As requested, they also caulked around the windows and painted my front door with the paint color I provided. Marvin even stopped in and touched a couple areas that required additional paint. Overall, I am happy with the paint project results on the front and back of my house. I would definitely recommend Paint the DMV to anyone needing their painting projects completed."

"Va Painting LLC is an outstanding contractor Abdul Ahmadi was the only company from the list to come out and inspect the job site and define the requirements with me. He gave me a reasonable quote and provided a digital contract at the same time. He prepped the job area to ensure no paint dripped on the rock base of the mailbox podium and mounted the mail box and house numbers. All the HOA requirements were met for street side mailbox appearance and mounting. This is a trust worthy and diligent contractor with great respect for the client. Put VA painting as first to call for any painting job."

"We hired Jeff and his crew to finish removing the stipple from our first floor ceilings, make them smooth and paint them. It is so beautiful now. They were within their time schedule, worked with us on pricing and very customer/family friendly. We plan to use them again for more painting work around our house. High praise!"

"BDL Painters, LLC was terrific from start to finish. They had by far the most competitive price of the three estimates we collected - for the exact same work. They responded promptly to our request for an estimate and our subsequent questions. They showed up when they said they would, did consistently high quality, (beautiful!) detailed work, and were pleasant to work with, industrious, and left our house and yard cleaned up 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.
