"The painting project went very well. Micheal came, did measurements, checked paint prices, and gave me a fair and reasonable estimate. We signed the contract on a Friday, and the next Monday morning, he and his partner showed up ready to work. Everything was power washed, and the next couple of days they did caulking and prep work, including covering all windows. Then on Friday they spray painted two coats on my house and garage. A beautiful job completed one week from signing the contract! I particularly appreciated that Micheal showed up when he said he would, he communicated with me about his plan, and patiently answered all my questions. Both of them were clearly competent and meticulous to details, exceeding my expectations. They were both polite and respectful to me, an elderly woman. An unexpected severe windstorm came up, and they quickly reattached my downspouts before having to leave. But Micheal returned another day to reattach some birdhouses and brackets to my garage. I am very pleased with their work, even my neighbors are impressed. I requested a business card to share with others."

"June was an excellent choice for painting my living room, dining room, and crown molding in my home. She did a truly professional job. Can t believe how well she can stay within the lines! She is truly an artist. I thought her prices were really reasonable also. We also had a water stain on our master bath ceiling that she fixed. She not only paints, but she does an excellent job of filling in cracks and seams. I would recommend her highly to anyone needing a painter!"

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.
