Customers say: Quick response
"Jamie called me back within minutes of my first inquiry online. He arranged to come out the following day and provided a quote. He was able to complete the roofing job in one day, arrived early, and stayed onsite for the entire day. He was thorough , professional, and straight forward in his assessment . He completed the job in a timely and thorough manner, along with a very complete clean up prior to leaving. Jamie came in just under his quote . I would certainly have Jamie do more work here, and hope he can help us in the future."

hey there- My name is Jamie Dickson- i'm actually a senior pastor at a central maine church. Before pastoring I started one of the larger more successful painting companies in maine and before that worked with Sherwin williams company closely with product and specialty knowledge on job sites. Currently just looking for small jobs to help pay for my kids tuition to school. thanks!
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.
