"From the start the Preemo Painting company was easy to deal with. The crew that painted the exterior of our house was always prompt to work and always cleaned up at the end of the day. The work was of high quality and was complemented by many of the neighbors. Would highly recommend to use for all your painting needs"

"Hired Marty to paint 30 yr old 4' cedar fence around back yard. Offered fair price. Power washing revealed more repair required than initially thought. Adjusted price favorably to encompass increased scope of work. Did excellent job repairing & painting fence. He and his team honest, pleasant, good to work with. Highly recommended."

I started painting when I was 17 years old. My brother and I painted a whole condo when COVID hit, and that's what put food on the table. Even though it was a hard task to accomplish, I was able to watch and learn from a lot of people. Later, I entered into a fast-paced painting company with jobs brought by CertaPro. I learned the good and bad things about painting and drywall. Throughout the years, I have learned that my customers are the very first thing that comes to mind when I do a job for them. Quality goes a long way.

"Angel and his team were highly professional from the beginning. The estimate was detailed and accurate, and the pricing was well-explained. The references provided positive feedback. The work was completed on time and with great care. They made sure that the plants were not disturbed during the process, and the paint and resurfacing were done exceptionally well. I would definitely hire Angel and his team for any future needs."

"They came when they said they would come. They powerwashed the deck one day, two days later they sanded and stained it. After that they did touch ups. They were very professional workers."

FAQs for painting projects in Maple Park, IL

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.
