"Rogelio Rodas and his team are extremely punctual, professional and meticulous about their work. I hired them to pressure wash my townhome (corner unit) and the deck. They then sanded and stained the deck, replaced all of rotted wood trim and parts of the wood garage door, and painted all exterior trim (including windows) and the front door. The house looks great and I’ve received many compliments from neighbors. I will definitely rehire Rogelio and his team."

"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."

"Great experience from receiving quote to revising estimates to getting the job done. Quality was excellent and professional. There were a few places where paint had gotten onto our wood trim and they were able to get it cleaned up immediately. Only area for improvement was estimating how much paint was needed. We had to make 3 trips to the paint store over 2 days because they kept needing more paint!"

"MENDEZ Painting did an excellent job in matching my existing engineered wood flooring, removed carpet from steps and repalce with white oak with stain to match flooring. Also installed a 20 x 30 wall tile in basement that looks outstanding. Very professional crew with expert results."

"Elmer was absolutely fantastic on this project. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would! He's extremely responsive to queries, very courteous, friendly and truly cares about doing a good job. I hired his company to plaster multiple cracks in the ceilings and paint the entire basement (5 areas total) -- ceilings, walls, trim, doors and baseboards. He provided the paint for the ceiling and trim, while I provided the paint for the walls. We started the project on a Wednesday so we'd have Friday as a third day for the project if needed, but Elmer and his crew finished within two days -- working 12 hours each day! Even though I'm changing the carpet in the basement, they took care to cover it up and clean up after themselves. They also laid down drop cloths across my hardwood floors leading to the basement steps to protect it. The basement looks like it belongs in a brand new house. The walls and ceilings look incredible! They caulked and sealed all the gaps between the trim and the walls, and respected my wishes to remove all light fixtures and switch plates to paint behind them. I have two more floors to go and definitely plan to call Elmer when I've saved up to move forward. Highly recommend hiring EDE Painting for your project!"

FAQs for painting projects in Fort Belvoir, VA

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.
