"Timely quote given. Project scheduled a few weeks later. Unfortunately will require some touch up painting but they left matching paint thankfully, otherwise would have been higher rating."

"Premier Painting was great. Pete has done two projects for me in the past few years. He did all the trim on my main home three years ago (siding itself is vinyl), looks great and has held up great. This summer he did the entire pool house, lots of prep, trim and cedar siding. Super happy with how it came out and how quickly he was able to get the job completed. All this and he is very competitive with pricing."

"Adam came the day after I called him and did a terrific, quality, job staining our pergola. While there he also kindly painted our bar supports at no extra costs! We highly recommend Adam and will use him for other projects in the future."

"I am very happy with the quality of the paint job that Silas Silva of KLS Painting company performed. He proved to be an excellent choice among 5 other pros who sent the quotes. He was hired for painting exterior of my house and fences. I was especially impressed with how he and his crew meticulously scrapping, sanding &oil primer of all of the imperfection of the existing shingles, replacing and repairing any areas need to be done before the paint job and the result was like I got a brand new house. My house can be considered big enough and aged so the work was very time consuming and thanks to KLS painting professionals. I strongly recommend KLS painting to anyone who needs quality & afforable painting job."

"This company repainted two warehouse units I own and did a great job. I have done some internal house painting myself so I can appreciate the fine job- good straight lines between paint of different colors on wall and ceiling, even quality paint coverage, just generally first rate. Would recommend."

"They are hard working and clean up everything. The crew were excellent and very polite. I would recommend Star Painting for anyone who is considering painting their house. They even did needed carpentry. Our home has never looked so good on the outside since we bought it in 2008. Thank you Eddie and the Star Painting Crew!!!!!!"

"I highly recommend Urbano Painting. They applied solid stain to the cedar siding and trim of our two-story colonial and performed some repair and replacement carpentry - at a price that was lower than all but one of the quotes I received. All of their work was impeccable. Jocimar and his whole team are a pleasure to deal with and went the extra mile to ensure our complete satisfaction. Everything was done with a high degree of professionalism, from prep work to staining to daily cleanup. The whole experience exceeded my expectations, and I hope to hire them again for interior painting."

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.
