"Don't hesitate to hire them. Highly professional. Hire them to repaint the whole house and baseboards. Top Notch - attention to the details (i.e. painting behind outlets). They filled holes in the wall professionally. Nice people, very clean work. Decent price. Highly recommended and I am very picky so take my word."

"Jerome did an amazing job! He is professional, easy to communicate with and very detailed. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his work. His pricing is extremely reasonable with is quality of work he does. When I had a few delays, he was understanding of it and worked around my crazy schedule. While painting he made sure everything was covered so the paint didn’t stain anything. He’s very knowledgeable and walked around the property with me and explained everything. He did repairs that were needed prior to painting that any other person probably would of just painted over. I’m very happy with his service and I will be calling him back for my interior painting."

FAQs for painting projects in Dover, FL

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.
