"The team did a great job on some very old plaster walls. They were professional, quiet and kept to their word on schedule. The plaster repairs and painting were great - we will be using them again and I would recommend them to others as well."

"Kazi was recommended by a friend and he did a great job. I hired him to paint the front of a three story row house - the job was done quickly and professionally. He was a good communicator, and was willing to coordinate with my ground floor tenant who has a cafe so that her business was not impacted by the work."

"JCM Renovations was a pleasure to work with. Julio did a fantastic job with the rooms he painted. He was efficient, very clean and neat with all the rooms. He was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions and went above and beyond to make sure he answered any questions I had. I would definitely use them again to paint as my wife and I were very satisfied with the work. I look forward/plan to use them for handyman services as well in the future as I was impressed with the quality of their work."

FAQs for painting projects in South Richmond Hill, NY

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.
