"We knew when we bought our home that we wanted it repainted. The big question was WHO. We are so glad we hired Mike with Van Meter Painting! We first hired him for a smaller portion of our home to see the quality of his work, and quickly knew he was the guy for the job of the rest of our home. He helped us find the right colors, was knowledgeable about colors and textures, and kept all his work areas very clean. We lived in our home the whole time, planning and adjusting to the daily schedule of a family with 3 young children. Mike always communicated arrival times and was never late. We love the colors we chose and how he was able to clean up old repairs and make our walls and trim look new. Highly recommend Mike for any painting job and look forward to our future painting projects with Van Meter Painting! We were so happy to have our house fresh in time for Thanksgiving!"

"Couldn?t be happier with the work Capital City Coating did on these built-ins in 2024. The glossy finish came out stunning and gave the whole room such a bold, elegant look. Every detail was done with care, from the smooth coating to the clean edges and overall craftsmanship. Even after time, the quality still speaks for itself. We constantly get compliments on this room! , talented, and easy to work with I would absolutely recommend them to anyone wanting custom cabinetry or shelving finishes with a Luxury look."

"I really like Ron. He is upfront and honest."
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.
