"I couldn't be more pleased with Advanced Painting by Woody. Woody was quick to reply and easy to communicate with. The rate was very reasonable and the project was completed on schedule and was flawless. The site was left immaculate. I cannot recommend Advanced Painting by Woody enough."

"The job was done in a proficient and professional manner. The painting crew came in and went over the work to be done to confirm color choices and rooms to be painted. We had already moved all necessary furniture and the crew covered everything with tarps. The work was done very cleanly and fast. The finished rooms look very nice and we are very happy with the final look. Thank you Big Sky Country Contractors for a job well done. We will be giving you a call on our next project."

"Boaz, the owner, was cheerfully willing to do anything we asked to have done. He came when he said he would (or called to say he would be late) and returned to finish work when needed (another coat of paint or mud). We needed a couple of tweaks on the work and he cheerfully came and fixed them with no charge. His work was excellent and he knew just what to do for each task. He was referred to us by another handyman who was too busy and we couldn't have been more pleased with Boaz. He is professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I was very surprised at his work ethic. Many people do not seem to care about the quality of their work. Boaz wants his work to be right and his customers happy. He does what he promises, when he promises, stays until the job is done and does the job right. We hired him again to do more inside painting after our furniture was removed from the house and were just as pleased."

"Tylor & Jake were professional and courteous. They showed technical competency and finished the job as promised. They could have done a little better job in keeping me informed about scheduling, but this does not take away from my rating at all. Great job!"

"David and his team did an excellent job refreshing our rental unit! David was super communicative, responsive and prompt. Because of the paint color we chose, the job wound up over budget but David worked with us to make sure the updated cost felt fair. I will definitely employ Fresh Coat Painting again for our paint and remodeling needs!"

FAQs for painting projects in Milltown, MT

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.
