"The painters were on time, skilled and helpful moving all of my exterior furnishings, covering them and putting back in place. At the end of the job, they pressure cleaned my patio, driveway and dock removing any paint or stains. The owner was on site daily directing crew and making sure the project was moving efficiently. I would highly recommend and in fact I’m hiring them again to paint the interior of my home."

"I hired Clean Power and Painting Several years ago to paint both the interior and exterior of my home. I was delighted with their work and rehired them to paint my garage and interior again. The quality of paint is the best and the painters are the best! They do an excellent job with attention to detail and don’t stop till the job is done. The owner is also delightful. One of the best companies a person can deal with."

"Prisma just completed painting the exterior of our home, and we couldn't be more pleased! We solicited four different quotes for the job, and Prisma came in with a competitive price and excellent reviews. From start to finish, they were very easy and pleasant to work with. Wellington, who came out for the estimate and also performed most of the work, was always responsive, professional and meticulous - which is so important in a painting contractor. It took more than a month for us to choose and obtain approval from our HOA on the paint colors, and he made an effort to check in with us regularly on the status. Once the work started, he had help from Gabriel, who arrived on time every morning to pressure wash, prep and paint. They are an incredibly hard-working team, and spent the last day doing touch-ups where we requested to ensure we were 100% satisfied. It's so refreshing to work with a contractor you trust and that over-delivers! I highly recommend Prisma to anyone looking for a painter."

"They were all polite worked together like a well oiled machine. I was amazed at how much they paid attention to detail and what a fantastic paint job they did. I had a couple of accent colors and my house looks picture perfect! I was also amazed how they cleaned up they vacuumed and mopped all the areas, I would definitely give them the highest mark and would be proud to recommend they to anyone."

FAQs for painting projects in Fort Lauderdale, FL

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.
