"It went great! Noreen’s performed professionally and flawlessly each day until the interior painting was complete. This paint job included prepping and spraying custom interior Millwork trims, as well as ceiling and wall painting. The cut lines were razor sharp. They cleaned up well and even took the Ram Board that was on the floor before they started. This was phase one and they are coming back for phase two."

"I have nothing but good things to say about Rubumco Painting. We found them to be prompt, responsive, friendly, careful and thorough. We have a lot of wood fencing on landscaped acreage. Although we had trimmed back plants from touching the fence, these guys were so careful about plantings, draping them in coverings for protection. Part of the fence and garden area have panels of galvanized hog wire with wood trim, and I watched as they painstakingly masked off the hog wire everywhere so it didnâ t get painted. Amazing! The guys also stained a massive cedar arbor on the front of the house. Thank goodness they questioned the color I had chosen, and showed me the actual paint stain color. In reality, the color I picked was a garish orange! The guys were so patient with me and really helped to find the color I was going for. This is not our first time using Rubumco, as they also painted our homeâ s exterior, as well as the interior, several years ago. And Iâ m sure we will use them again on any future jobs. You get what you pay for: they are not the cheapest, but they are reasonable. You are paying for a quality job, customer service, and the knowledge Rubumco brings to the table! They just do it right!"

"Back Country Painting is absolutely the Best! We needed the interior of our house painted and were in a bind for time. Caesar and crew came to our rescue and did an outstanding job. Everyone at Back Country bent over backwards to quickly help us and at a very fair cost. The crew (including office staff) was professional, courteous and clearly all worked well together. We were amazed when our 2100 sq ft home was finished in only 3 days (and the crew worked over a holiday to help us out)! Our next project is the exterior and there is only one company I will call - Back Country Painting."

"Total Innovation Partners gave us a quote in a matter of days. Their bid was lower than others we requested. The crew pressure washed our home and painted a couple of days later. They were super nice and professional and the painting turned out great."

"Rick did a phenomenal job for us on a full-house, extremely detailed project. It was a lot of work, and he plowed through it with a great attitude. His finish work was excellent, texturing on point, and he even painted the entire interior of the house flawlessly. I highly recommend Rick's work and would hire him again when needed."

FAQs for painting projects in Mount Vernon, WA

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.
