"I hired Elias to knock down a wall, paint a stairwell, stain and varnish wood paneling wall, lay down flooring and moulding in a room and a hall and patch up a few things around the house. Elias and his team were absolutely wonderful. They showed up on time every day, finished the jobs in a matter of days, and did exceptional, flawless work. Everyone was really nice, polite and straightforward about exactly what work was being done and what it would cost. I will be hiring them again to install toilets in a few weeks and would recommend Elias to anyone that needs work done around the house."

"After getting a few bids from companies to paint a 2 bedroom apartment, we decided to go with Precision Painting. Working with Ross and John, we felt very comfortable with their attention to detail, quick response to questions and the expected turnaround for completion. They actually finished a day earlier than scheduled. We were so pleased that we had them paint the building's hallways. This is a project that we had started but had been derailed by the pandemic. 2 different colors, stair ballasts, moldings for a 3-story building - all beautifully completed on schedule and within the estimated cost. I'd highly recommend them for any similar project you have in mind."

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.
