"The process went smoothly from start to finish. 247 Painting did an excellent job painting my house. Since I bought the house it had never been painted so I really needed a freshen up and they went above and beyond. Every line is so crisp and I’m so much more happier with my house now."

"I had use this co once before. They are absolutely the best. They cover every surface that is not suppose to be painted. Furniture that is left in the room is completely sealed. All light fixtures are covered. They have now painted my entire house although this time it was two large bathrooms and the master bedroom. The did an amazing job. You can barely tell where I had light boxes. It took one day to cover and mask everything and a day and a half to paint. The crew is quiet and respectful. R Belasco, the owner is such a gentlemen. He was so accommodating to what I wanted. I would not hesitate to hire him again."

"Martin returned our call promptly. He was very courteous and explained everything he was going to do. Once he completed it, I was not completely satisfied so I asked him to come back. He once again explained something I missed from previous explanation but with absolutely no hesitation he agreed to fix it. Came a couple days later and completed it to my satisfaction. He is very professional I would recommend him to anyone."

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.
