"Jose did a fabulous job painting the interior of my house which some minor repair work and painting doors and trim. He communicates as promised and was even able to begin my job 4 days early. He's very meticulous about his results--I feel like I have a new house! I've already asked him to give me an estimate on a job painting my kitchen cabinets..."

"Marvin and his team did an amazing job. They were professional, prompt, and did an excellent job repairing drywall and painting. They were exceptionally neat and clean. We had to do nothing after they were finished. We look forward to them painting several other rooms in our house!"

"I had a great experience working with Jonathan and his crew. It started with some handyman jobs, e.g., repairing and staining a fence, replacing the flooring of a shed, replacing a post on the front steps that also required cement repair and painting. We talked about staining my log home because he had log pros who could repair a rotted spot or two, professionally clean the logs, and put a coat of semi-transparent stain on a 3,500 square foot home. His estimate was very acceptable given the tasks it included. I have never had painters wash the logs and prepare for painting like this crew did. It actually looked good enough to forego the stain! The rotten log was cut out and replaced, and the actual staining was smooth and beautiful! I could not be happier with the finished job. I was thinking of replacing my solid wood front door, but they painted it and it is is perfect! So is the repointed patio! They are skilled pros with a great work ethic. Thank you!"

"I had a great experience with Advanced Painting. Steven (Owner), responded promptly to my request for services and came out to assess the project the next day. He provided a timely detailed cost estimate that included painting my home interior and exterior, replacing exterior wood trim, and repairing/staining the deck to ensure it was structurally safe. He also kept me well-informed of the status of the project each day. The work crew was courteous, friendly and tidy. They did a great job protecting the furniture, doors and windows. The house looks wonderful. I really appreciate the care and attention given to my home; and the cost was reasonable. I would certainly use this company again."

"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."

FAQs for painting projects in Fredericksburg, 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.
