"Kara and Kevin did a great job. They arrived on time and laid out a plan in advance of completion. Each day, our home was left in very good order. They painted my kitchen cabinets and they are just beautiful. They also brought suggestions that we had not thought about. Great experience, beautifully painted interior."

"Santos, Kevin and the entire J & S team completed my project in one day and it looks amazing! My daughter purchased her first home (a one bedroom, one bath condo) and it desperately needed a facelift. J &S definitely took care of that for us. They painted her living/dining room; bedroom; bathroom; and kitchen (including ceilings and trim) in one day! They are truly amazing! If I ever need anything painted, I will contact them in a heartbeat. I will also recommend them to all of my family and friends who may need any kind of painting needs. If you have a project that needs painting, don’t hesitate to call J & S Painting. They are professional, kind, and prompt. They’re great!!!"

"Caleb did an outstanding job refinishing our cabinets. From the start, he was punctual, professional, and very detail-oriented. He took the time to explain the process and helped us choose the best finish for our kitchen. The quality of the work was excellent — the cabinets look brand new, and the results exceeded our expectations. He also made sure everything was clean and tidy once the job was done. His attention to detail and friendly attitude made the whole experience very smooth. We highly recommend Caleb and would definitely hire him again for future projects."

FAQs for painting projects in Mount Washington, KY

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.
