"Got estimates from 5 companies - large and small -- to paint (dark stained) 10 cabinet doors and 7 drawers (to off-white). Estimates ranged approx $4200 down to $750. All were going to use the same store and type of paint (Emerald urethane). All but one would separate doors/hinges and use brush or spray on-site, one would remove all and paint in their shop. I couldn't imagine the results would be 4 times better if I went with the high end quotes. Went with Wing at approx $750 (not incl tax) to do job. Zach quoted and thought it would be a 2-3 day job to remove doors/hinges and spray onsite. Three weeks later I got 4 day notice they could start work. A 3 person crew showed up on time and got right to work. Professional, friendly, efficient. They decided to use brush only. I "thought" spray method would provide a better looking finish but "no", the brush method was very good (light stipple effect). One prime coat and one finish coat were accomplished on day 1. Returning on time for day 2, they finished another coat and cleanup in approx 4 hours. Overall: Very satisfied and would hire again."

"My painter for 40+ years retired. I waited 2 years before finding Dunworth Painting. I needed a study room painted. I am delighted to have found our new painter, Joseph Dunworth! He started on the date promised & was prompt each day. He was very professional & his work was perfect! He left no spatters or spills because every day he carefully placed drop cloths! Most importantly, his painting was immaculate, including windows, radiators, built-in bookcase, doors & door frames. Each night he left the workspace clean & passable. I am so thrilled with Joseph’s work & will only use him for all our painting needs! I highly recommend Dunworth Painting!"

"Haley Hills, owner of Pretty Painters does an excellent job at whatever she does! She went with us to the carpet store to coordinate our new wall color of paint with our new carpet color. She bricked our fireplace. She was always on time, neat, cleaned up at the end of the day. Very professional lady! I highly recommend her! You won't be disappointed ?"

Customers say: Terrific value

"David runs an honest, reliable business. He did what he promised and we were really pleased that he was able to address a few other small asks outside the scope of painting. Pricing was transparent and reasonable and results were all as expected. Would definitely work with this business again."

"I had the absolute best experience choosing JRC Improvement for a complete living room ceiling takedown and install. Any drywall work is always messy, however, Jason sealed off my living room so well, it truly contained the expected dust. Jason was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. After completing the entire ceiling, he primed, and painted beautifully. The craftsmanship and attention to detail he used, led to the entire project exceeding expectations. My ceiling is flawless, and he also installed a brand new fan. Extremely easy to work with, Jason, restored my faith in contractors. I would without hesitation, recommend Jason, and JRC Improvement for any home project!"

FAQs for painting projects in Lewiston, NY

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.
