"I had two rooms painted recently and I’m so happy with how they turned out! She was extremely kind, respectful, and treated my home like her own. She took her time making sure everything was covered and cleaned up perfectly when she was finished. The color looks beautiful and completely brightened up my space — it honestly feels like a whole new home. It’s such a good feeling walking into those rooms now. I’d recommend KC Precision Painting in a heartbeat!"

"Tony was consciencious about providing an accurate quote. When he found something underneath that needed fixing, he contacted me even though it was only $60. His final bill was the original quote plus that $60, no more. The work was quality and he spent time repairing in the cold and working around the rain when it got to the painting. He did some difficult repair work and sealed my house from the weather, after it was damaged. He was good at returning calls and keeping me informed of progress and plans. I highly recommend him."
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.
