"Cliff came in on a Saturday and removed 3 walls of wallpaper. He did a great job with that and we hired him to paint the upper level interior of the house. Again a great job at a fair price. Cliff is a true painting professional and it shows in his work. I'll definitely call Cliff for future painting projects."

"I am retired military and am used to "attention to detail". Kind Home Painting Company did not disappoint. From the moment Jeff stopped by to tell us about their company, to the end of the painting, I found everyone along the journey to be very professional with much attention to detail. I have had my house painted several times, and Kind Homes is the best! Definitely, if you are in the market for a paint job, I highly recommend this company. Jeff managed the project and he and his supervisor, Kurt, came by frequently to inspect the progress. They have a great paint crew...Daniel Ford"

"Alpha Wolf Painting did a phenomenal job! They painted when we bought a new house and even managed to cover up a full burgundy room. I still need to learn their secret for doing the edges because they turned out better than mine ever have. I would highly recommend this company!"

"Alan and team were super responsive and easy to work with. They fixed a hole in our ceilings and repainted/textured them as well. I would recommend them for drywall repairs and painting and plan on using them again if needed."

FAQs for painting projects in Lakewood, CO

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.
