"I hired Terry from Reyes LLC to remove our popcorn ceiling and paint afterwards. He did a fantastic job in a quick time frame getting everything stripped, painted and ultimately improved in a matter of days. Will hire again for my next project and I recommend others to do the same."

"John did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. The estimate he gave was accurate to the final cost of the job, and he completed the job in the amount of time he estimated. He was communicative in the lead up to the job and promptly addressed any concerns. He kept a clean worksite and did a very neat job painting. He was also very helpful in pointing out a few areas for me to keep an eye on in the future for possible repairs. All, said, I had a great experience hiring John."

I am a painter serving clients in Burlington and surrounding areas. I have painted for large companies as well as private contractors before starting a career weatherizing homes for Champlain Valley Weatherization Services and going into business painting for my clients on the weekends. My reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job. \n3 years of experience\nCC acceptance Venmo.
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.
