Customers say: True professional

"Neil came out and gave us an estimate along with recommendations on what shade of white would look nice. The first working day he came out to remove all of the cabinet doors, drawers (36 of them!) and a few shelves and he painted the boxes. He took the doors and drawers home to spray them (he hand-painted the boxes so we didn't have to shut down the room which was nice). while painting the doors he discovered a slight difference in the door paint vs the box paint (he showed me and honestly I would have never known) so he came back out and repainted the boxes. At this time he brought a sample he had done of the cabinet door antiquing detail (he hand-painted some of the grooves) so we could approve that. When he finished the cabinets he even went back and caulked areas and touched up our walls in spots that may have needed it. Even with the paint color issue, all the hand-painted detailing and Christmas coming up, he still finished ahead of schedule and we had a new kitchen for Christmas! He was incredibly professional throughout the process and an easy-going nice guy. It's been 4 months and I still walk into my kitchen and just stare at the cabinets because I love them so much now! I would (and have) highly recommend him to anyone looking to have any painting done!"

"I am absolutely thrilled with the work they did. Not only did they do a great job with painting our walls and trim but the patching work was amazing. They made some spots we dealt with being a mess for years, look brand new. They were super polite and easy to work with as well. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for interior painting!!"

"Wall to Wall Painting painted the entire interior of my home and did a wonderful job. The men are very professional and are excellent painters. They moved the furniture and covered everything with drop cloths and taped and masked the walls. We were very satisfied with the finished product and would highly recommend them."

"We had an excellent experience with PC Painting! From the initial estimate to the final walk-through, their team was professional, punctual, and respectful of our home. They paid incredible attention to detail, patching minor cracks and ensuring perfectly crisp, clean lines between the walls and trim. The crew was friendly, tidy, and finished the project on schedule. The final result is stunning—we will definitely be hiring them AGAIN!"

"Johnny Rafferty / IPC did a great job with my deck project. I would recommend them to anyone looking for this service. He was very efficient, neat, and made sure that I was satisfied with the work. He used modern tools that made the job more professional than other contractors that I have used in the past. He was able to do the project in 2 days - 1 to wash the 2 decks and 2 to apply the stain / paint to them. He did the work when promised and was easy to work with."

FAQs for painting projects in New Kensington, PA

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.
