"I recently hired 775 painting to paint the exterior of my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The owner and his crew were professional, efficient, and did an absolutely phenomenal job. From the trim to the entire house, everything was done with great attention to detail and completed in no time. My home looks amazing, and I highly recommend this company to anyone planning to paint their house. You won’t be disappointed."

"Great work the painters arrived on time, moved furniture and prepared room for painting. This room has cathedral ceilings and the accent wall we decided to add came out amazing. When the room was finished everything was cleaned up they even checked the room to make sure there were no drips then cleaned the floors before moving the furniture back in place. The room came out beautifully and I forgot to mention the previous owners had not painted in over 15 years but now the house looks great."

"Henry's crew was fantastic. They prepped the project completely, protecting all non painted surfaces, lots of plastic and tape! We spent time choosing paint colors , matching colors that were 20 years old and no longer available. Colors were matched perfectly. Paint covered stucco and trim thoroughly and crew took care of all the details. I would recommend Henry's , a fantastic company"

FAQs for painting projects in Carson City, NV

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.
