Customers say: Terrific value
"I had a new construction home that I had Finish Concepts come in to paint the whole interior. The price was a fair price and the quality was great. I have a family room ceiling that has beam grids and needed the quality of painting to be perfect...it was. I was very pleased. Upon completion and inspection there were only a few minor items that I needed them to correct of which they did so graciously. The painting crew ("the guys") were all very courteous, respectful and thorough. Great job guys!"

"Jeff Desatnik painted our living room, dining room and front hallway. We had difficult flaking paint on the ceilings of both major rooms and detailed areas that required trim repair and wallboard new work and repairs. Jeff is a superb craftsman and has the critical eye for detail and the excellent skill set to complete the job on time and on budget. We are extremely pleased with his workmanship and his ability to work in our home with minimal disruption. We highly recommend him!"

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.
