"Premier Painting was great. Pete has done two projects for me in the past few years. He did all the trim on my main home three years ago (siding itself is vinyl), looks great and has held up great. This summer he did the entire pool house, lots of prep, trim and cedar siding. Super happy with how it came out and how quickly he was able to get the job completed. All this and he is very competitive with pricing."

"Jordan Martinez came over promptly. We discussed what areas in the kitchen and dining room that were to be painted. Jordan contacted another painter named, Angel to see if he would be available to do the painting job the next morning. Angel, who is a very polite, and a hard working young man, agreed to do the job which was done on Saturday and Sunday. Both the kitchen and the dining room areas were painted with two coats of paint. Two coats on the ceiling, two coats on the walls, and the trim. We are very happy with the end result. We would highly recommend Jordan Martinez/ Putnam Coastal Painting, and Angel who did the painting job. Sincerely, Al and Liz"

"Steve did an outstanding job refinishing and painting our kitchen cabinets. He was meticulous about prepping the kitchen and his workmanship was first-rate. The spray painting went smoothly and because of his careful preparation, there was no paint on any surfaces where t didn't belong. He did a thorough clean up afterwards. The cabinets look brand new and we couldn't be happier. He is an excellent craftsman."

FAQs for painting projects in York Harbor, ME

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.
