"I am very, very happy with the work JH painting did in my home. I needed to have the interior of my 4 bedroom rental property painted. Mr. Taurino reached out to me immediately after I submitted my request on Angie’s List. He was very professional and patient with me because I had a lot of questions about the job. Pleasantly to my surprise JH under the supervision of Mr. Taurino did a tremendously job. They moved and covered furniture prepped the walls by patching all the dents and holes. I recommend JH Painting (Mr. Taurino) to anyone looking for a true professional painting contractor. Thank you JH Painting Services. God bless you and your crew."

"Jose and his team did a great job! Their price was fair, they showed up on time and completed the work very quickly. I originally hired them to paint the house and redo the carpets but I came back and hired them again to redo the shower. I will be hiring them in the future for any type of work they offer. Jose has a lot of expertise and gave a lot of great advice when picking out materials, colors, etc. Thanks so much!"

"Mr. Daza is a courteous and skilled professional. I had a hole in my dining room dry wall ceiling caused by a leak. He clearly explained how he planned to fix it and the time frame and gave me a very reasonable quote. He did a fabulous job spraying anti-mold spray, then patching the hole and another visible seam. Finally, he painted the ceiling. His work compared to other contractors I had for the same job in the past was more clean, solid and efficient. The ceiling looked absolutely brand new when he finished. I highly recommend this skilled contractor."

"Miguel’s Team painting services was truly exceptional. We initially hired Miguel to paint our kitchen cabinets from their original wood stain to a dark forest green. Our cabinet colors came out great, and the service was reasonably priced.  Miguel’s Team did such an excellent job that we also hired them to repaint our entire house."

FAQs for painting projects in Takoma Park, MD

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.
