"Walt and his crew were amazing. Walt was extremely responsive, showed up when he said he would. We were having our bricks, painted a new color and our siding and windows frames painted a different color. My husband was concerned about painting the bricks, but Walt assured us that the product he was using would last many years. Adam, who did the actual painting, had an amazing attention to detail. On our final walk-through, he noticed things we did not. I would highly recommend them. They finish the job when they said they would and we ended up with a beautiful looking house."

He remolded my cabinets by painting them for me, also gave me an educational tip on which paint color I should use considering I have children who like to make messes! The job was done in a timely fashion, I love my kitchen now, literally looks like a brand new house! Iâ  m very pleased with his work and canâ  t wait to have him come paint my living room!"

"Very well done. There were some hard to remove stains on the old deck and several boards needed replaced. All were replaced and deck stains removed. The new stain was a new color and I had no places where I saw the old stain color at all. I would recommend this service again and I plan to have them do this again in three years. Very easy to work with also. No trash or paint items left behind. very professional workers."

"Had our whole house interior - 1,750 sq ft. - walls, trim, doors, baseboards were painted as well as staining our backyard porch. Tom Birman and his crew, Lorraine, Tom, Terry and Nick did a great job! They were friendly and professional. They were on time everyday and worked so well together! When they first came they all went in different directions and I thought uh oh, but I was surprised because they had a system of working together that was so smooth I was amazed! Job completed in 4 days. We are elderly and they were so very helpful taking things down for us that were up high on the walls, because we can’t climb ladders anymore. Cleaned up nicely too. Did a final walkthrough today. We are very happy with the quality of their work! Would definitely recommend and I would hire them again."

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.
