"Costello Painting did an amazing job! Hugh and his brother were friendly, professional and super easy to work with. Early in the project, they had painted some of the railing and we didn't like the color we had chosen from the brochure once it was on the deck; they went back to get different paint twice until we were satisfied with the color - no problem. It was almost 90 and humid (of course) today and they still seemed like they were having fun staining our deck in the hot sun! Cleaned up after and even left us with some extra stain for down the road. These guys clearly love what they do and I would hire them again in a second! A+"

"The owner, Jon, was very communicative and provided a quick and competitive quote. The team who did the actual painting showed up on time and did the work quickly and with care, even with the added difficulty of vaulted ceilings. I had one touch up request (to be expected for such a large job), and Jon sent the team out the very next day without any issue. Great customer service!"

"The house looks amazing! In fact, a couple of neighbors asked who did the painting, we shared the contact, and they worked with JD Hostetter also. Finally, I had received 10 quotes for the paint job, and their price was easily the best."

"Martin and his crew with Mills Construction delivered a quality job at a fair price. He installed new flooring throughout my house. His staff also painted throughout my house. A new front door and awning were also designed and installed, flawlessly!! He takes great pride in his work. He went out of his way to do additional work as well. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Just outstanding work by his crew that is hard to find these days!"

"Hunter and his partner, Josh, came out to my house and gave me a written estimate for transitioning my gas log fireplace into a sleek, modern glass crystal one. Everything was explained what they would do and within a week the job was done and it looks great. I can't tell you how refreshing it is to have some young and personal professionals come out and do a fantastic job. They were also very easily accessible when I had any questions. Good help is hard to find so now that I know they do many other side jobs, I am already getting them lined up to do some more work. Can't go wrong with these guys and they are insured."

FAQs for painting projects in Ellettsville, IN

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.
