"The entire process of having my deck and window medallion painted by Image Works was extremely positive. Everyone who helped me with this painting project was very professional and helpful. Kaylyn in customer service, Nate who came out and gave me the quote, Rick who did the power washing, Rege who helped me choose paint color and Max who did the painting all were wonderful! I highly recommend Imagine Works this is my second time using them and I will continue to use them for my painting needs."

"Martin and his crew removed wallpaper and painted nearly half of our home and we are thrilled with how it turned out! He responded to my inquiry within a day and came out to give a quote within a week. Martin offered us a reasonable and fair price for the amount of work to be done and was spot on with the estimate of how long the job would take. The work was done in 5 days and they were extremely courteous, clean and efficient while here. We highly recommend Painting Pittsburgh and will definitely be using them for future projects!"

"I purchased an older home and had a few rooms that needed painting. Chris was the one of many contractors that reached out to me. I looked at all of his great reviews and we set up an appointment for a quote. Chris was on time, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I hired him and scheduled the job. Great communication in between and I gave him the paint colors for each room. On the day scheduled, two of his workers (who Chris identified for me) showed up on time. They were professional, friendly, respectful of my time, home and belongings. They had to move furniture to paint the walls and ceiling and cleaned up afterwards. It was a 2 day job and my bedroom, office and hallway look fantastic. The work they did was exemplary. No dabs of different color paint on the ceiling or along the baseboards. They exceeded my expectations in every way. I am happy that I chose Chris and his team and will be calling on him again for future projects."

FAQs for painting projects in Penn Hills, 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.
