"Rob painted the hallway of our 4 storey condo, and also revarnished the much weathered front door. The entire project went so smoothly! Rob worked quickly, and neatly. The hallway looks fantastic. The entire job went so well, I asked him to paint our living room next!"

"Kris Winiarski Painting will be our choice for any future work we need done. We set up a time for Kris to come look at what we needed (pool deck cleaning and staining and painting of two interior rooms) and he was right on time both for the review and his submission of an estimate. Kris's estimate was right in line with other estimates received but what sealed the deal was his knowledge of what needed to be done, how to do it and the materials to use. Kris was on time each day, neat and exhibited a great work ethic. Would we hire KW Painting again? - We where very pleased with all the work Kris did therefore the answer is YES without a doubt. 5 STAR professional."

"I couldn’t be happier with my experience. Not only did the work come out pristine but the amazing customer service throughout the entire process made my home refresh even more pleasant. I debated doing the painting myself but I am so very glad I didn’t! They are precise, attentive and keep the space very clean during the entire process. Highly recommend"

"We got our house power washed and rooms painted from Nick. Awesome job ! House looks like new and painting job looks beautiful . My biggest fear of hiring contractors is that they never come on time or skip a day or two , but Nick was on time ( actually a bit early ) every single day and focused on his job throughout the day . He is very well experienced so won’t do jobs that are going to mess up your project , he knows exactly what to do , and how to do it right . I have two little kids , so the paint quality he used was awesome , barely any smell or chemicals- really appreciate that . I’ll definitely hire him again ."

"Peter did a great job painting our rain damaged ceiling and walls in our living room, transforming it into a whole new living space. Because of his great work in our living room we hired him again to paint our deck. We are so pleased with all of his work so far that we will be contacting him in the future for additional projects on our home. He is trustworthy, gives fair prices, easy to contact and completes projects efficiently within the promised time. Highly recommend!"

"Certipro painters did an amazing job painting my home. They arrived immediately to give me a fair estimate and started the job faster than I expected. They are professional and neat and also came back to make sure I was happy with the job. They did exactly what I asked with the paint colors and how I wanted my home to look. Now I love my house before it was dingy and old looking missing shingles holes from woodpeckers etc. Certipro repairs all of the holes and replaced missing shingles and repaired wood that was rotted out. This was no easy job. Im going to use them again to paint the inside of my home and will highly recommend Certipro Painters to my friends and family."

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.
