"Nick did an outstanding job painting the interior of our home and we will have him paint the exterior of our home next spring. He is very professional and a pleasure to work with! Nick painted all walls and ceilings in our new home, which included 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, pantry, study. and living room with cathedral ceilings. His painting is superb and he pays attention to details. He also worked with us on our time frame and completed the project ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a great painter!!"

"Mark and Nick were great! They did a thorough walkthrough both before and after and made sure everything we wanted done was done to our liking. They were very clear in communicating what their plan was and when they planned on doing the work. The work completed was top quality and I will be reaching out again if we need any more painting/staining/ finishing done. Would highly recommend their services."

"This was the 3rd time we used Walls N All Painting and they continue to exceed expectations. They painted the interior of our entire condo (except ceilings) and they did an excellent job. They completed the job on time, did very professional work, answered any questions we had, cleaned up after themselves, and inspected the job for any flaws (there were none). The crew was great to work with and we would highly recommend them for your painting needs."

"I hired USA Custome Painting after receiving 5 estimates to paint/black out the ceilings of my fully furnished basement. Ben and his crew took the meticulous time to cover all my furniture, electronics, walls, and carpeted floors. The work completed by Ben and his team was beyond excellent! The paint job was fantastic and there was not a drop of black paint on any of the protected items. Ben and his team were courteous, professional, and punctual. Would I recommend USA Custome Painting? HECK YES!"

"Had them paint majority of our new house including a full 2 story living room. Excellent work, on time, and went above and beyond and put an extra coat on the ceiling in the kitchen at no extra cost to make it look better. Would highly recommend and will use them for any future paint projects."

"From the first contact through Angi, and along every step of the process, this company was exceptional. Tony did a wonderful job staining my deck in two colors and balcony in one color. Communication with Tuvia was very easy and exceptionally professional. They were the highest bidder and worthy of the investment. I highly recommend them and will use them for any future painting project."

FAQs for painting projects in Rochester, MI

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.
