"It went very well. We needed new flooring and interior paint done immediately and he was the only company that worked us into his schedule the following day to start the work needed. They were very thorough and communicated with us very well. This company was amazing from beginning to end and I highly recommend them, they truly shine far above the rest and will use them again for additional future projects."

"Quick, responsive, quality paint, quality work, and honest. We used Nashville Painting Company to fully paint our exterior house including brick and can't be happier with the results. Our home looks stunning. The job didn't go as smoothly as it could have but they stepped up and made it right. I can't speak more highly of them!"

"The original quote was for "walls, 1 ceiling, baseboards. Quote did not include door trim. Who paints baseboards but not door trim? 360 painting should provide comprehensive "trim" estimates. I paid extra $200.00 for door trim. I don't know how they come up with their estimate amounts. It is not based on sq. ft."

FAQs for painting projects in Nashville, TN

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.
