"The walls had many issues it was painted in a flat off white to hide all the problems.They had to resurface the entire area in the kitchen and other areas then sand to make the walls look normal again before starting to paint. They prepped very well so as not to get paint or dust from sanding on any of your items and took whatever time was needed to complete the project in a beautiful manner and no unexpected fees added after the original quote, They cleaned up everything before they left were very respectful at all times and the areas of the house they painted look great. I'd like to have them back when I can afford to paint the other rooms mostly on the 2nd floor. I would highly recommend them."

Customers say: True professional

"Would recommend Curtis Painting for all painting needs. Jordan Curtis is great to work with and our Team Lead, Denise, was wonderful. Great communication, punctual team, and amazing work. We had most every room in our home painted (ceiling, doors, walls). The entire team was punctual, polite and definitely professionals at their jobs! Our home looks fantastic! Thank you Curtis Painting ð It was estimated that the job would take 4/5 days, it was completed in 3. The crew did a great job. The crew was courteous and they cleaned up each day. They fixed the holes and repaired the tape seams. They took off all of the outlet and switch plates. We had three different wall paints, a ceiling paint and a trim and door paint. Overall my wife and are very pleased. The house looks great. They use top quality paint from Sherwin Williams. The Owner was easily access1ble and he came and inspected the completed job."

"This is an outstanding business. The owner Brian came out quickly, gave me a great quote and started the work during the time I requested. Our house had not been painted in 14 years and he did a great job on the prep work and the painting. He even repaired some areas we had damaged taking out the vanities. I have recommended him to a couple of my friends and plan to hire him again to do some outside painting. I can't thank him enough the house looks beautiful. Thanks Brian."

"Garringer Painting recently stained my fence, and they did an outstanding job. The crew was prompt, professional, and paid close attention to detail. The stain was applied beautifully and really brought new life to the fence. They took great care with the prep and cleanup, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. 10 out of 10 — highly recommend! I’ll definitely be using them again for future projects."

FAQs for painting projects in Kettering, OH

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.
