"Got estimates from 5 companies - large and small -- to paint (dark stained) 10 cabinet doors and 7 drawers (to off-white). Estimates ranged approx $4200 down to $750. All were going to use the same store and type of paint (Emerald urethane). All but one would separate doors/hinges and use brush or spray on-site, one would remove all and paint in their shop. I couldn't imagine the results would be 4 times better if I went with the high end quotes. Went with Wing at approx $750 (not incl tax) to do job. Zach quoted and thought it would be a 2-3 day job to remove doors/hinges and spray onsite. Three weeks later I got 4 day notice they could start work. A 3 person crew showed up on time and got right to work. Professional, friendly, efficient. They decided to use brush only. I "thought" spray method would provide a better looking finish but "no", the brush method was very good (light stipple effect). One prime coat and one finish coat were accomplished on day 1. Returning on time for day 2, they finished another coat and cleanup in approx 4 hours. Overall: Very satisfied and would hire again."

"Joe turned three very imperfect ceilings in an 80 year old home into a work of perfection. His skills are 2nd to none. Joe was a pleasure to have in my home, neat, very polite, talked about his two boys and wife, and I am searching for other projects to have him back. There is more to your project than price. Joe made it a nice experience for me."

"Wonderful…I would definitely use his services again. He took extra care to cover all items. He was even helpful in the decision of the paint color for the bedroom. He had all the equipment needed for the jobs. The job took a few days and he made sure to clean up everyday. Glad I chose this company, he did a tremendous job. I am loving the new colors."

"For me to give a 5 star rating the job has to be perfect. I give these guys a 4.7 star rating. I'm very happy with the results, there were minor things that I needed to do that affected the rating. Paint or joint compound on the windows ( came off easily with a razor blade), paint droppings on the concrete for example. All the guys that were involved were excellent. Bottom line, I would use them again and would recommend them."

FAQs for painting projects in East Amherst, NY

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.
