"My painter for 40+ years retired. I waited 2 years before finding Dunworth Painting. I needed a study room painted. I am delighted to have found our new painter, Joseph Dunworth! He started on the date promised & was prompt each day. He was very professional & his work was perfect! He left no spatters or spills because every day he carefully placed drop cloths! Most importantly, his painting was immaculate, including windows, radiators, built-in bookcase, doors & door frames. Each night he left the workspace clean & passable. I am so thrilled with Joseph’s work & will only use him for all our painting needs! I highly recommend Dunworth Painting!"

"Kelvin and Ryan were nothing short of exceptional throughout the entire process. Their communications were always immediate, professional, and accommodating. We always felt like they truly cared about the job, its outcome, and our home?they quickly became trusted. Ryan?s expertise and devotion to the job were impressive. There are a lot of painters out there, but Ryan really went the extra mile at each moment?never rushed, always thoughtful, like he was working on his own house. It rained in the middle of the job which of course changed the schedule, but it was clear that once the weather cleared returning to our home was a priority. Lots of ?Buffalo? in this company, they named it appropriately, ?Gold Neighbors? for sure! We will be calling them for all of our future painting/staining needs."

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.
