"The staff did an excellent job priming and oaint our first floor. The drywall work was terrific and created a great base for the painting. I love the blue they painted our kitchen. We will use their services again."

"Incredible job done by Sergio and his crew. We needed our kitchen cabinets painted and they got it done in 2 days! The guys were professional and proficient. They literally got every spot, and then went back over and to see if they missed anything. These guys are affordable and well worth their price. Definitely will be using them again when painting my house!!"

"I recently hired 360 Painting of York to paint the first floor within my house. The job was completed within 6 days, including prep work (my house had not been painted in over 10 years, so lots of prepping was required), priming (I went from dark walls to a pastel shade), painting (I have very high ceilings in multiple areas) and clean up. 360 Painting did an amazing job! Jen and Gabeâ s attention to detail is incredible. Once the project officially began, their customer focused approach to quality and satisfaction was top notch and epitomized professionalism. The only reason I did not give five stars across the board was the time it took to get started was beyond the original time frame. However, after seeing the completed job, I am a very happy customer and will be returning to 360 Painting of York for my next project in the near future."

"DnB was good with a complicated job here of using 5 different paint colors and 2 different stain colors all in close quarters, along with three or four areas of drywall that were a mess from prior contractor. Also they met their timing commitment to the very day that they promised arrival (two months prior)."

"We were so lucky to find William Braun to paint our Civil War Hospital home. He described each step of the process. He power washed the entire brick exterior. He then inspected each brick, fixing those that needed it. Applied 2 layers of primer, and then the final paint. His estimate of 3 weeks once he received the materials was spot on taking into account the weather. He is a perfectionist and it shows in his work. He would text us when he was on the way and when he was heading out. He moved items on the porch (including a pallet of pellets) and moved everything back when done. We could not be more happy with the finished product. He even cleaned out the gutters on our garage when we asked him to. We would definitely recommend William, and may ask him to do another project for us. The work needed to be done wasn’t listed on the review. William was contracted to paint the exterior of our brick house."

FAQs for painting projects in Ephrata, PA

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.
