"Joe is our go-to guy when it comes to painting and any carpentry work we need done. For $1,750 (not including the molding and paint costs), he and his crew put wood veneers on the risers of our new wood stairs and sanded and painted the sides (we got rid of the carpet & got our wood floors & stairs sanded & stained.) They also added molding all along the sides. Then, we got the molding replaced in our living room, dining room & upstairs hall. Plus, he painted a small bathroom. As an added bonus, he added new molding around the entryway into the kitchen- he just asked if I wanted it- for free! I got such a great deal from Joe! This is the third time he has done work for me and I'm sure I will be contacting him again in the future when I need carpentry and/or painting done! Professional, good communicator, great prices!"

"I am a proud repeat customer of Pride Painting, Brian and Penny. Brian, Penny and crew are the most professional and skilled contractors I have ever has the pleasure of using. Last time it was my kitchen, which came out perfect, and this time my living room, dining room , vestibule, front exterior door, and 18" high cement basement walling exterior. The skillful work will make my home worth thousands more, but more than that, is that they do help you find way to save you money on jobs. Penny thought of more creative way to do my baseboards and it save me a few hundred dollar and looks perfect. You should feel very comfortable with Brian and Penny, and any suggestions you have they will are very malleable and will accommodate any changes you wish to make to your project. As I wrote in the past, they take great Pride in their work. And I would be comfortable leaving them alone and going to the beach as the work on the project. I trust them , and all of their crew, implicitly. You will not find anyone out there that will give you the attention and skill, Brian, & Penny bring to their work. Repeat customer, and I highly recommend Pride Painting."

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.
