"This was the second time I worked with Shecki and Jose. The first was painting the house exterior and it's still holding up well 5 years later. The second time was a re-staining of the deck. Work was done beautifully. Paint was neat, no streaks, carpentry was done well and we're very pleased with the end result. Pricing was a little high this time around. Hope that stabilizes in the future, would definitely look to work again with Shecki and Jose."

"Matt prepped, skimmed, primed, painted - advised on type of paint to buy, showed up right on time, keep me informed throughout and offered solutions. Reasonably priced. Work looks great and I will be hiring him for my next painting project."

"Junior and his guys exceeded our expectations!  My husband and I could not be happier with their painting job of our bedroom.  We put off painting the bedroom because we thought that the price would be outrageous - it's a very large room with super high ceilings.  But we decided to shop around.  We had more than five painters come by to give us quotes.  When Junior showed up, we could tell that he was a pro but also easy going - how someone is when they are confident about their work.  We decided to go with him.  He confirmed the start date days in advance and showed up when he promised.  The work took exactly as long as he said it would.  It's not an easy room - height of ceilings, tons of white beams.  Not a speck of slate blue paint where it should not be and the room is as clean now as it was when they arrived.  They prepped the walls beautifully.  The painting around the white beams, ceiling and baseboards is perfect.  Did I say that we're super happy!  Thank you Junior and your team for being very reasonably priced, proficient, neat, courteous, and respectful.  I highly recommend All Painting Decoration Corp!  "

"My 1995 oak cabinets were painted white and the doors and drawer faces were replaced and then painted. They look beautiful! I also had a custom cabinet built along with a kitchen island. The craftsmanship is on point! My kitchen transformation looks amazing. I would definitely recommend Palette Pro!"

"What a great job they did painting my house. They were quick, the price was great, and they did a great job. They even went above and beyond and painted the front of my garage without charging me a penny. Will definitely hire them again for any interior or exterior painting jobs. Thank you so much my house never looked so nice before."

"Great experience with Carlos and his crew painting my 1872 Victorian in Ridgefield. They spent several days prepping and sanding the exterior down to the wood. They re-glazed windows, removed and painted the wooden-framed window screens, and removed and painted the shutters as well. There was one section of wood rot that they replaced - all while staying within budget. No surprises. We went over all the details and expectations beforehand and I could not be happier with how my house is looking now. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you have a daunting paint job. My house required several extremely tall ladders and these guys were up and down like it was nothing. Great crew, great work - top notch."

"Although Precision Painting Plus services a large area, I never felt lost in the shuffle. Requested help to paint master bedroom. Received immediate phone call to discuss project. Project manager then stopped by to talk particulars. Account manager organized every step of the process. Painters showed up when scheduled and left everything in order. I was very pleased with PPP from start to finish. Would definitely hire again"

"I have used Taurus Painting Services multiple times throughout my home’s many remodeling projects. This was a small project to paint walls and accent paint my foyer and stair risers leading to the second story. Steve communicates well and confirmed color choices and paint finishes before starting the project. He set eta’s and he and his small crew worked quietly and efficiently to complete the project as expected. All surfaces were prepped and furniture and flooring was either moved or protected. I highly recommend Taurus Painting Services for all your painting needs."

FAQs for painting projects in Thornwood, 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.
