"They didn't really pay attention to detail. They slept paint on outlets door knobs window sills that another company had to clean or clear the paint so that I could open the windows lock doors and to use the outlets. They also recommended me to purchase an enormous amount of paint that I never used."

"First and foremost in what we were looking for in the painting work was crisp and precise painting lines where walls meet ceilings and at the baseboards. Extremely precise. Also the pros at Paint were extremely neat in their work and how they left our home. Very professional and efficient in their work, and very pleasant in their demeanor. And I do not say these things lightly! What could have been something to dread having multiple rooms painted was the complete opposite. Would hire them again with no questions asked!"

"We just had a large portion of our home (the living room, stairwell, and second floor landing) painted by McEvoy Painting LLC this week and we were so impressed. Dave was prompt and organized when it came to scheduling our estimate and he gave us a very fair price for the amount of work being done. We have a 6 month old baby and he took that into consideration, using a non-VOC paint to keep the fumes low in the house. The job was finished a day early, the paint looked awesome, and my home did not smell like paint when I returned. I highly recommend Dave and McEvoy Painting! I will be using his services again in the future."

"Kiefer custom painting has painted two homes for me. They have been quick, affordable, and have delivered quality product by transforming the inside of my home. Both times kiefer custom painting was up against an old house with a lot of finish work to make the walls look new again. They completed the task and worked around my family needs and pets. Call them whenever you need any interior or exterior paint projects. 10/10"

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.
