"I have nothing but great things to say about my experience using Scarlett Painting for our interior painting project. Jorge was extremely kind, respectful, and had great communication with me regarding my project. He arrived on time and worked hard to ensure that our project was done in a very reasonable amount of time. It took him only 2 days to complete two interior bedrooms in our home, while still ensuring quality work. He did a great job covering our floors and furniture and cleaning up after himself when he was finished. His pricing is fair and reasonable! I would highly recommend Jorge and Scarlett Painting!"

"We wholeheartedly recommend this company!! Artis owners reviewed the scope with us, introduced the crew, and everyone was respectful of us and our home. The crews removed old paint, wallpaper, made sheet rock repairs and retextured large areas, including new ceilings. Their work was exemplary!"

"Abelardo was excellent. He did a great job renovating our basement with dry wall ceilings and painted the entire basement. He also put new bathroom floors in our basement bathroom. He was attentive, with great attention to detail. He communicated very well through each step of the process and is very dependable and was always there exactly when he said he’d be. The work is even better than we hoped. If we have home renovations on the future, Abelardo will be the first person I call. I can’t recommend him enough!"

FAQs for painting projects in Belton, MO

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.
