"FCL Painting did an excellent job. Felipe answered my emails when I had additional questions. His crew is hard working. I had walls and ceilings done and they look brand new. They showed up on time, cleaned everything at the end of each day and were just a pleasure to work with."

"I would highly recommend I.S. Painting Inc They gave me an estimate of all my projects to be done. I was very happy with their quote. I had my kitchen cabinets painted along with the walls. It was a much more time consuming process then I thought it would be. Carla informed me right up front what it would involve. She guided me through whole in her calming manor. They also sanded our deck and stained. Painted two bedrooms and two bathrooms. She and Italiio were very quiet and every time just went right to work. Always checking with me each process. My kitchen looks fabulous. Like a magazine for new kitchens. When finished they cleaned up all trash and took with them. Highly recommend. Iâ ll have more painting future. And highly recommend them for any painting projects"

"We Absolutely recommend VGK painting company! Vinny and Gisella were honest, and had great communication skills, they kept us updated throughout the whole process. Vinnie is a skilled painter and he saved our second floor windows by replacing the rotted sills. Our home was severely faded on the South side and the stain was peeling on the East sides. He sanded and primed the problem areas, applied 2 coats of premium solid stain bringing the appearance back to like new! The work on the trim included painting the shutters, replacing the worn downspouts and painting the faded ones. We are delighted with the result, many neighbors have commented on how nice the house looks! Support local businesses! Thanks for a great job!"

"I couldn t have asked for more when hiring Claudio to stain my deck That had new and old pressurize wood from an extension I did a few years ago. I reached out to multiple contractors For estimates and when talking to Claudio I just knew by his professionalism his knowledge on paint and especially staining was superior to the rest, He would pick up my call every time I tried reaching out to him texted back immediately. The job was a two session job so on one day he sent out one of his workers what you have to say came right on time 8 AM in the morning to power-wash the deck, He was there for about four hours and you could tell by his meticulous work that he wasn t rushing the job even though it was just power-washing, The next challenge was waiting a few days for it to dry and as you know this rain wasn t helping but we got a couple of sunny days and Claudio booked for a Saturday to start staining. He arrived at my house promptly at 8 AM to start the project on my 10x24 second story deck. Everything that I researched about staining is exactly what I notice he was doing he made sure to mix or stains into one bucket to confirm a unified color, Also he use a spray gun with a back brush technique which is the best way to get it even color throughout your deck and make sure all the pores in crevices are covered. The project wrapped up around 2 PM. My wife and I were extremely happy with the outcome I m glad we picked Claudio for the job. What I didn t mention was he did not ask for any money upfront he specifically said you can pay me when the job is done and you are satisfied with your deck. We was able to pay via credit card which always makes life a little easier. We would definitely be hiring Claudio again from multiple projects at our home. Always good to meet solid people that work hard and that our professional and that I m not trying to rip you off ."

FAQs for painting projects in Onset, MA

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.
