"Hired Paint it Right to paint the interior. Ken did a wonderful job, took good care to protect everything that wasn’t being painted, and cleaned everything up when he was finished. Started with a basically all white paint scheme and when it was done we had many different colors. 10/10 would hire them again."

"WOW 1 Day Painting Metro Detroit did an excellent job. The only challenge was Mother Nature... Jason was very good to work with on scheduling as we had to postpone a couple times due to poor weather, but it worked out well. Daniel and his team did a stellar job and clean up. I am very please and so happy..! I highly recommend WOW Painting and will use these folks again for other projects."

"KV Painting did an excellent job on trim painting and woodwork repairs around the exterior of my 100-year-old home. He and his crew were pleasant and careful, did a thorough job, and thorough clean up. His attention to detail and care for "a job well-done" were evident. I would definitely hire him again."

"The owner was very response and kept in constant touch with me and his paint crews. He was patient and understanding of some mild challenges in final paint trim/ accent colors. Paint crew stayed on the job and were very neat at the end of day. Would certainly hire them again."

"He was great! He came in, was extremely professional and polite, worked all day, and got the whole ceiling done within the day. And, he cleaned up everything. When he was done, the room looked amazing, and was somehow cleaner than it was before! Will definitely hire again if I need something else painted!"

FAQs for painting projects in Whitmore Lake, MI

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.
