"They stained my cedar siding and painted the vinyl addition. They taped things off nicely and even painted a spot that was missed high up previously. I am having them back to do some interior painting! Looks great!!"

"We hired Clean Cut Painting to update the interior surfaces of our business location, and the results were truly impressive. Their team demonstrated excellent craftsmanship and professionalism throughout the entire project. They carefully prepared all areas before starting and ensured every surface received a smooth, consistent finish. The painters worked efficiently while maintaining a clean and organized workspace, which allowed our business to continue operating with minimal disruption. The fresh new look has made a noticeable difference in the atmosphere of our building and has received many compliments from customers. I highly recommend Clean Cut Painting to any business seeking high-quality painting and staining services."

"Had them paint majority of our new house including a full 2 story living room. Excellent work, on time, and went above and beyond and put an extra coat on the ceiling in the kitchen at no extra cost to make it look better. Would highly recommend and will use them for any future paint projects."

"Doni made sure my office was painted in time for the tech installation before opening and I could trust him with a key. All of my equipment waiting for install was accounted for. The paint job was done well and we’ve gotten quite a lot of compliments on the improvements."

"We have hired Woodbrook Painting several times over the last seven years. Our most recent project was painting our kitchen cabinets, we are delighted with the outcome. Our 25 year old cabinets look like brand new and like they just came in from the factory. Keith, Ryan and the crew were professionals from beginning to end and got the job done on time, within budget and with minimal disruption to our routine. We will be hiring Woodbrook again soon."

"Larry is the best! He was thorough, neat. And even offered painting suggestions to help get our house ready to sell. He also worked with and around the wood flooring contractors and carpet cleaner. We got our first full price offer one day after he finished painting and we think his work was a big reason our house looks so good to potential buyers. Anyone who needs painting done should definitely hire Larry; he is a true professional!"

"Their work was beautiful. They did a great job. Tony was the one I speak for. He was excellent, nice, and did a walk around the time that works for me. When I called up and asked for an estimate, I was not ready for them to do the work yet and I just called them on the time when I was ready for them to paint. They did a beautiful and excellent job. I would recommend them to my family and friends."

We used oil on the glossy columns because that's what they used when they built the home.

FAQs for painting projects in Highland, MI

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.
