"Greg Baker Painting did an excellent job. The crew power washed the house, taped up the windows, repaired any rotten shingles, etc., that they encountered. The house was painted in just over two days and the area was completely cleaned up. We had them paint our house back in 2004, and that job was so good, and looked good for so long, that we wanted to make sure we got them back."

"We have hired David and his crew twice. They painted our upstairs bedrooms including the ceilings and we were so pleased we hired them again to paint our dark paneling in our great room as well as our bar and a half bath. They did a great job and are so professional. David helped me pick out paint colors and made helpful suggestions. Everything looks so beautiful and we couldn’t be more pleased. We plan to hire them again in the future."

"The work is superior but somewhat pricey. However, I hired them for exterior painting after the awesome job they did removing my wall paper for the first bid that they gave me. This team is so good and trustworthy that I left them in my house to lock up for a week. Laurent has wonderful and professional guys working for him and I could say enough about the care they take with painting as well as cleaning up after they are done working."

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.
