"We had the exterior of our single-story house painted by Hee Construction. Simon and his crew were timely, fast and efficient, and did quality work. The crew was courteous and quickly addressed any questions or concerns. I would use them again for any future painting projects, and recommend this painting contractor. — Ron E."

"Jon and his crew are great. They are fast, professional, and reasonably priced. We’ve had them paint our entire exterior, interior, stair railing, kitchen cabinets, and doors. Jon helped us determine color options for areas we were unsure about including exterior accents and cabinets. The fresh paint has made such a difference modernizing our house built in the 1990s that hadn’t been updated much prior to our purchase. I will definitely use them again in the future."

"Videma did a great job painting my exterior. The color matching was excellent and exactly what I asked for. Damian has exceptional customer service skills. I’m going to hire them again when I’m ready to get the interior painted."
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.
