"This was a very positive experience from the beginning to end. Brian was very responsive to my initial inquiry and in the selection of a paint color (which Iâ ve received many compliments on) to finalizing a quote that worked within my budget. Tom and Tammyâ s workmanship was exceptional. They clearly take a lot of pride in their work. I plan on having them back this spring to stain my deck. Highly recommend!"

"Our ceilings were painted in our kitchen, family room and entry way/hallway. Angel was careful to cover all surfaces of woodwork and furniture, to protect from splatters. 2 coats were painted where needed and the work took less time than expected. We're very satisfied with he job, and Angel and his helper tolerated our dog needing to know what's going on. Angel kept us informed of the progress during the painting. We highly recommend Trinity and will use them again if needed."

"I had a great experience working with this company. They were prompt in their estimate and advice on what to do, and I appreciated the mention that, as I was pricing out new vinyl siding, we could paint our vinyl siding and save quite a bit of money. It only took around two weeks from first conversation to completing the work. We're very satisfied with the outcome and the ease of working with Pro Painting & Restoration. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for both vinyl siding painting and brick staining."

"No need to look any further for a handyman service, just hire Finished Looks you will be glad you did. These guys have 30 years experience under their tool belts and they know what they are talking about. When nobody and I mean nobody would install my drip edge extenders and my Rainhandler system they came with a smile. They also corrected other issues with my roof and replaced the cedar siding and stained it. I have no more leaks in my foyer! Job well done and I would hire this crew to do all repairs in the future. Great to work with, fair price and quality work, what more could you ask for. Oh yes, they even cleaned up the job sight."

FAQs for painting projects in Richmond, 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.
