"The estimator came out on time and was patient with my many details. When the job was scheduled, they accommodated my start time of 9 am, and then worked very quietly for many hours. Within 2 days, the entire project was finished. There was not a single spot of paint to clean up and they were very respectful of my house. I will definitely call them again and highly recommend this company."

"Casey and his team did a great job painting our house. They were very thorough – they repaired our plaster walls and even called in another skilled professional to get the job done right. They were priced fairly, worked efficiently and supported our unconventional painting choices. Thanks, Casey!"

"Had 2 bedrooms, a hallway ( required wallpaper removal ) and a Great Room including vaulted ceiling painted. The work was superb. Painter was always cheerful, timely, professional and meticulous in his work. The rooms have been transformed. Excellent work. I'm already planning other paint projects and Amazon Painting will be my first call!"

"Amazing experience!! Alfredo was very skilled, meticulous, and did a fantastic job with the interior painting we needed for our new home. He not only painted the perfect color with high quality paints, but repaired the walls, ceiling, and trim to a brand-new state. He was extremely easy to work with, even working around our vacation schedule as needed. We would highly recommend Alfredo without reservation to anyone who needs painting (or other work) and plan to hire him again when we are ready to re-paint other spaces."

FAQs for painting projects in Lincoln Park, IL

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.
