"Donin and Dorian did a wonderful painting job! Everything--floors, carpets, furniture, etc.--was covered completely during the process, and the finished product was lovely. One would never know that there had ever been damage to the ceilings from Hurricane Florence. DLA Painting is the best. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"There was a misunderstanding on the days to begin the job because Lonnie arrived a day early. Lonnie arrived the next day on time with all the equipment for painting except the paint. He is professional and friendly. I purchased the red paint for my doors. I am happy with the result. I would recommend J Edwards Construction to anyone needing a professional painter."

"This is the THIRD year in a row that I have hired the services of Perez Remodeling. Their competitive pricing, craftsmanship and customer service is the best in the area. Tiling is like candy to them, I had a complete bathroom remodel, the tile work is perfect, so beautiful. I had my garage dry walled, taped and painted. Pressure wash and stain my deck and fencing. There isn't anything they can't do, very courteous, punctual and precise!!"

FAQs for painting projects in Goldsboro, NC

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.
