"Antonio and his crew did a fabulous job. The priming and painting were meticulous and the finished product looks great. They took care in scraping the old paint where needed, and did a very professional paint job. Would highly recommend Resolution Painting and will certainly use them again on my next painting job."

"These guys are incredible. Best contractors I've worked with in Ashburn. Two experienced painters spent 5 days doing a superb job. At first, I thought maybe there should be more painters so the job would be completed quicker, but these two guys had solid experience and worked extremely well together. When they finished a room, it was ready to move back into. They removed outlet covers, light fixtures, and anything that blocked the painting effort. They sanded the walls, and fixed every tiny flaw they could find. I am absolutely amazed at how good it looks now that they are finished. They clean everything up to perfection and left our house in perfect shape. I highly recommend Let's Roll. Their price was very reasonable and the quality was first rate. I will definitely use them again whenever I need painting done."

"Wilber's Painting was able to rehab the townhouse in an adequate amount of time. He knew that special paint needed to be applied to block odors and stains, before new paint could be applied to the walls and ceiling. He fixed ceilings with water damage and repaired drywall. He worked diligently and the rehab was very successful. I highly recommend Wilber's Painting."

"Elmer and his crew are true professionals and do excellent work. They arrived at my house by 7:45 a.m. every day and worked 12-14 hours continuously with only a short lunch break. He finished painting my house in 6 & 1/2 days (estimated time was 7-9 days). They take great care in details and pride in their workmanship. Very respectful and hard-working crew. I have recommended Elmer to several friends and scheduled to have him return in the summer to paint my kitchen cabinets. I would highly recommend this company to other people!"

FAQs for painting projects in Catharpin, VA

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.
