"The crew at 360 Painting did a great job with this project. They took their time, asked for feedback along the way, offered suggestions, and did a quality job. The crew was kind, respectful, and professional. I felt like they treated my home like they would treat their own (if not better). They even offered to do some "hard-to-reach cleaning" for me while they had their ladders and scaffolding up. Before leaving, everyone made sure what they did met our expectations (which it did). The only reason I gave them a B for punctuality is because the job took longer than originally estimated. Although, they admitted there was a lot more work (fixing drywall) than they originally thought. However, they stuck to their original price and did a great job. I wouldn't hesitate to have them back in my home to do additional work."

"Bruns Remodel has done numerous projects for me including the removal of a cement utility sink, installing a new smaller sink, and moving my washer and dryer which involved plumbing, duct work, etc. Mr. Bruns also CREATED a new bay window sill from raw ash wood - very involved project requiring precise measurements and staining/poly to match my hardwood floors (beautiful!!). Other projects included attic insulation; AC unit removal/installation; installation of an outdoor motion light; power washing siding; toilet installation. Extremely satisfied with all of the many projects completed by Bruns Remodel!"

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.
