"Chris and team did a great job painting about 2000 square feet of our home this spring. They were conscientious and diligent, especially in the daunting task of covering up poorly stained doors, window sashes and baseboard heaters as well."

"We were completely happy with Al and his worker Dave. They did a wonderful job in painting our kitchen ceiling which we had done by another painting Co. and it was a mess. They were totally professional and friendly. Not one drop of paint splashed anywhere, cleaned up everything beautifully. Would hire them again without any hesitation. Great guys to work with."

"Charles painted the second floor of my in-law's new home in Brewster. It was a large room with cathedral ceilings, stained walls and a textured ceiling .as well as a bathroom. His workmanship is top notch; it looks like a new house! He was reasonably priced, prompt, cleaned up at the end of each day and made some recommendations to help make everything look perfect. Would definitely use again and highly recommend him!"

"BRAVO !!! I am thrilled with the beautiful painting job done by Regal Custom Painting at my home in Pocasset (Cape Cod) MA. The two Regal painters were courteous, careful to keep my gate closed, were pleasant, and did a PROFESSIONAL JOB for me. I had peeling paint on the windowsills ... metal baseboard registers that were showing their age, etc. Emerson, the owner, explained the process to paint the ceiling, walls, doors, and windows, baseboards ... using primer, sanding, etc. Additionally, I had newly installed flooring ... of course, one should have the painting done first ... then new floors installed, but I had to grab the floor installation date or wait until later in the Summer Not a problem, said Emerson, and sure enough, my new floors did not have any paint transfer to them while the baseboards were painted. I will be calling to have my Shed stained by Regal next! Highly recommend! Beautiful job using Ben Moore quality paint."

"FCL Painting did an excellent job. Felipe answered my emails when I had additional questions. His crew is hard working. I had walls and ceilings done and they look brand new. They showed up on time, cleaned everything at the end of each day and were just a pleasure to work with."

"I would highly recommend I.S. Painting Inc They gave me an estimate of all my projects to be done. I was very happy with their quote. I had my kitchen cabinets painted along with the walls. It was a much more time consuming process then I thought it would be. Carla informed me right up front what it would involve. She guided me through whole in her calming manor. They also sanded our deck and stained. Painted two bedrooms and two bathrooms. She and Italiio were very quiet and every time just went right to work. Always checking with me each process. My kitchen looks fabulous. Like a magazine for new kitchens. When finished they cleaned up all trash and took with them. Highly recommend. Iâ ll have more painting future. And highly recommend them for any painting projects"

"I needed the outdoor trim of my house painted so I went through Home Advisor to see what would come out of that. Andre responded to my need and provided me with a very professional quote. I selected his company to do the work and I am extremely glad I did. These guys went above and beyond to deliver excellent work. I was a bit nervous as I was coming up against the Holidays and needed to get this work completed quickly. His team showed up very early AM daily and worked until sunset. This was a challenging job to ensure the trim next to newly installed shingles was meticulously painted. They met the challenge!! All other trim work was equally well done!! My wife and I are super impressed and would recommend them in a heartbeat. If you need painting done you will not be disappointed."

FAQs for painting projects in Forestdale, MA

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.
