"I recently had pleasure of working with 2nd Street painting for an exterior pain job, and I could not be happier with my decision. After receiving several cuts from different companies, I chose 2nd Street painting, largely due to needs thoroughness and evident passion for his graft. From the start, he demonstrated deep knowledge of exterior painting and provided valuable insight that reinsured me that I was in good hands. The team, consisting of Claritin and Josh, took the project to an entirely new level. There are attention to detail ensure that the final result was not only fabulous but also flawless. One challenge week based was then need to replace several would in both on my home. While this task took Josh longer than initially anticipated, I was impressed by the professionalism and courtesy displayed by both Clayton and Josh throughout the process. The honor the retinal code without adding any unexpected charges, which is a testament to their integrity and commitment"

"Jason and BJ painted our kitchen and laundry room cabinets. They did a great job and we could not be happier! We spent some time researching different finishes, resurfacing and even installing new cabinets. So glad we went with 2nd Street Painting - our cabinets look brand new! The work was done efficiently, cleanly and with great care. All of our questions were promptly answered. The guys were very friendly, polite and easy to work with. Great communication too! We will have them out for our next painting project. Highly recommend!"

"Bob came in and looked at the job(s) and gave his opinion about what to do in the bathroom. He tore out all the old stuff and completely remodeled my bathroom and added shelves for storage. Wired in better lighting and replanned the tub. Put in the flooring. Painted walls and ceiling. Bob was more than fair in his pricing, does the job quickly. He also cleans up afterwards. I have since had uncle Bob in my house to do other jobs for me. He is my go to guy for home repairs and remodels."

"I contacted World Painting after CertaPro dropped out of sight.  We quickly got an appointment with them and they were ready to give us a bid that day.  The price was reasonable and it included power washing, caulking, and painting our porch floor along with the entire house.
They were able to start within the week and kept us updated through out the project, letting us know what was the next step and when it would be completed.  Customer service was excellent.  When I had a question they called me back within the hour. 
They did an amazing job and we have gotten tons of compliments on it.  We would definitely use them again.

FAQs for painting projects in Oakwood, IL

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.
