"Walter and his crew were great. They painted our main living area which included a 16ft tricky foyer area and an accent wall with a fire place that we had them paint the mantel as well. He quoted 2-3 days and it took exactly 2.5. His crew were punctual each day and they packed up each day right on time as I had requested so that by the time my toddler was home from daycare they were done which just made life so much easier. They sanded the walls to ensure a great finish and did 3 coats to make sure the coverage was perfect. We are very happy customers and would highly recommend Walter to any friends."

"Very professional with great work with a great price. Let me know everything I needed ahead of time and explained everything really well. Arrived on time, came from Charlottesville to Waynesboro Va. In love with the results, will definitely hire for future jobs. (Third image carpet stain is not paint)"

"When confronted with a crisis because of a copper plumbing burglary, Mr. Grady, of Grady's Painting, Plastering and Construction, willingly traveled many miles to come to my aid. Requesting only a $1.00 deposit against a $4,500.00 job, he masterfully reconstructed my nineteenth century lath and plaster hallway wall, also thoroughly compensating for a missing portion of a central stud unwittingly removed by a plumber! After his extensive search for appropriate composition and dimension of material, he replaced and replicated a section of my forty-year-old faux onyx tub surround with common white PVC sheet, tinted oil-based colors, glaze, paint brush, and a rag. His applied natural talents and superlative skills saved me thousands of dollars! On the basis of both professional conversation and knowledgeable observation, Mr. Grady possesses the intrinsic knowledge of old-world trades, the artistic capabilities, the problem=solving thought processes, and the personal work ethic to accomplish a broud scope of reconstruction and restoration."

"The personal and professional pride and attention to detail BWSS takes is reflected in the excellent quality of the work and is performed at reasonable prices. BWSS has repaired the roof and gutters, replaced the deck, and installed hardwood floors. The exterior of our natural cedar shingled house hadn't been washed or treated in 20 years. BWSS power washed and stained the house taking it from black back to it's original natural splendor! I plan to use BWSS for several more projects."

FAQs for painting projects in Shipman, VA

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.
