"I hired Frida to fix long neglected walls for an office and power room, both were previously painted by a homeowner and needed a significant amount of rework. Frida did an excellent job restoring the walls and painting our quite detailed trim and accents in both rooms. Friday was very detail oriented and provided good feedback and guidance during planning to helping me choose what degree of restoration she would do. I would definitely recommend working with Frida for your painting project."

"Scott's a great guy, but not a professional painter. I found myself requesting a lot of touch-ups and re-do's, along with multiple requests for second coats of paint (which I made clear was agreed to at the outset of the engagement). I'm going to have to correct some of the work that was done, and add additional coats of paint here and there. Overall, I think the job was bigger than Scott realized at the beginning. However, Scott is very personable and a good dude. Hire him if you want a simple job done fast at a decent price. If you have a complex job, with a lot of drywall work, I recommend that you go with someone else."

"I wanted to get my house painted, wood stained and a couple leaks in the ceiling fixed. I reached out on Angi where they recommended MNM. I'm really happy that I decided to go with them. They have really good reviews and I saw some of their pictures on their website. Guillermo was super responsive and they started the project within days. I've lived in this house for 10 years and have done nothing with these walls so they had a lot of work to do. I'm so extremely happy with the outcome. They transformed this house. Guillermo and Sammy were both so kind and professional. If I had anything that I noticed that needed a touch-up Guillermo came back in about a week and fixed everything. Very trustworthy, Great price and extremely professional. They will be my go-to for any painting projects moving forward. Thank you both so much for all your hard work!"

"They started the work and did it really good for the first two days, but the third  and fourth day it seems to me that they were running out of time and were working in a rush, so the work in the third floor was not the same quality than the first and second floor the first two days: a clean, careful and nice painting. I can not say the same about the painting in the third floor: too many details, a lamp hanging in the bathroom, power and light switches painted (which means they did not take them out), my wood floor splattered with paint. Maybe they estimated wrongly the time they needed  to have all the house painting. Other than that, they did a good job.

"Rodrigo was polite and nice. He gave me a good price . He was prompt and the work looks great. I had a small walkout deck that needed to be cleaned and painted stained. I had it painted. Rodriguez explained to me the process and time He explained to me the paint and that it would provide protection for deck. I like being informed on time lines and process. The deck looks so great my neighbor ask for his number as well. I m very happy. I have several jobs that I plan to hire him. Thanks so much Rodrigo and home advisor for sending me a reliable person. I m a new , first time home owner and I m a bit nervous about everything. Glad now I have my Painting and etc company"

"Jasmine and Angel were very well informed on painting, wood, power washing, carpentry. They were fast and efficient. The house, deck and railings look fabulous! They are very nice, friendly and have a strong work ethic. Las Mela's Painting is a winner and I will certainly hire again and refer them. Rich and Jan S. in Wauconda"

FAQs for painting projects in Pilsen, 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.
