"Working with Edwin was a real pleasure, from start to finish. He worked with us to develop the project since we only had a rough idea of what we wanted. He made suggestions during our initial visit like you might want to paint this or stain that; things we didn’t necessarily think of. Since we live 500 miles from our cottage scheduling a return visit is not always easy. Edwin made sure to have everything completed in the time agreed to. Needless to say, driving up to the cottage took our breadth away. The final results far exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend this pro for any project you are considering!!! Thanks Edwin."

"I was doing a kitchen remodel and desperately wanted to paint my cabinets, wanted to diy, but ultimately lacked the time and space. I hired Jake and he was professional and prompt, and very respectful of my space as the whole project was a live in remodel. He's now my go to painter!"

"I hired Zac to fix an Eve on my house. It came out exactly the way I hoped it would. He was fast, clean and very friendly. The price was exactly what we agreed on. He showed me the receipts for the materials and put what was leftover in a safe place at my house. Iâ m extremely happy with the way everything worked out and I look forward to hiring him for more projects in the future."

FAQs for painting projects in Friendship, ME

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.
