"Two words: Smooth & professional. Bryan kept us up to date with start dates, painted our house in 2 days-on the timeline he committed to. Excellent, knowledgeable, easy to approach staff. Abracadabra employs multiple women staff members which you don't always see in this field. I have no idea why anyone would use any other company in Western Mass? Would use them again, no question about it."

"Jordan and Vinny did an amazing job! Our guest bedroom needed to be completely gutted and they installed new drywall, trim, doors, and painted everything. We have young boys at home and I worried about exposing them to construction dust. Jordan's crew was incredibly tidy and we're looking forward to hiring them again for our next project."

"I’m hired Zaque to paint my house (external). It is a cape cod w an extension w cedar planks. Zaque did an excellent job at each step - prepping, staining, oiling. I would hire him again to do the maintenance on the cedar planks in about 4-5 years. He’s extremely responsible and responsive. He was detail-oriented and answered all of my questions at each step."

"I had a great experience with Jose. He didn’t just paint the walls but got rid of all the imperfections and didn’t multiple coats of paint. The walls look brand new. Showed up on time and didn’t leave the job until the project was completed. I will defiantly be hiring him again."

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.
