"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."

They were very professional and came fully equipped with paint, drop cloths, etc. They painted our kitchen, half bath, living room and children’s bathroom. They did a phenomenal job and we will be utilizing them again for more projects."

Customers say: Super punctual

"We were pleased with the job that Hetrick Painting did. Rob Hetrick came out quickly to give us a quote. Once we chose the stain color the work proceeded quickly. The deck looks much better than it did and is safer. Please note that the quote we received was for the labor only. The cost for the paint and other materials were then included in our final bill."

"I hired this company (Cleiton) to paint the interior of my home and he did an incredible job!! He’s more than a painter, he’s an artist! Every inch of my home was painted (ceiling, walls, trim) and it looks like a brand new house! His knowledge and skill set in this area are unbelievable as he went above and beyond what I asked of him! I will definitely be hiring him in the near. future for additional work. If I could I would give him 10 stars! His work ethic is par excellence!!!"

FAQs for painting projects in Henrico, 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.
