"I am very happy with TNC Painting and Remodeling. Brian is a great, professional craftsman. He is very resourceful with solutions for difficult projects. He listens to your directions, and provides precise, quality workmanship. He installed decorative baseboard molding, removed kitchen cabinets, installed a kitchen cabinet, and hung an antique shelf. He is neat, respectful, and cleans up after himself. I will definitely contact TNC Painting and Remodeling again for future projects. Thank you Brian!"

We have hired him for multiple home projects including staining our fence, deck stain, painting both inside and out, and even replacing pavers and he did a fantastic job on everything! Great communication. Extremely conscientious. Fred will treat your home like he would his own and really cares about customer satisfaction."

Customers say: Quality work

"Overall, I think John did a good job with the upfront communication about the job and the painting. Where he fell short was with time management and job clean up. He must have not given himself enough time to complete the job and seemed tp rushed through at the end, leaving sloppy paint markings in my bathroom on the corners of tub area and all over my tile floor. I also noticed later he got paint all over the carpet at the baseboard in my bedroom. I did not really care much about that because I am planning to replace it soon, but he did not seem to even try to keep it off the carpet. Finally, there were numerous paint splotches on our wood floor in the kitchen table area. This is after we had already gone through and marked several areas that needed attention. To be honest, I do not think it is he does bad work, I think he may need glasses. I have contacted him NUMEROUS times to come back and clean up these mistakes, in which he says he will come fix, but then does not. Even with the mistakes, I had planned to hire him to do further painting, as long as he would correct his mistakes, because he had a very good price. Unfortunately, I paid him for the job and he has not returned to fix the mistakes he made and seems to be uninterested in doing more work for me. Sadly, I cannot fix these things easily myself, because I am in a wheelchair and have difficulty reaching the floor and corners, so I will have to hire someone to fix it or just live with it. I would not recommend him to anyone due to these problems."

"We used Malone Painting to prepare our new home for move in day. They also helped us paint our old home which helped our listing shine. It was nice to have this work completed by a professional during a busy and stressful transition. Mike at Malone painting was professional, efficient and completed the work on time and on budget. Itâ s refreshing to have a crew that will communicate and complete the job in the planned time-frame. I would use Malone Painting for all our future painting needs."

Small jobs welcome

"Steve did a great job at a reasonable price. He is professional, skilled and friendly. We'd had parts of walls and ceilings ripped out on 2 floors when our cast iron stack pipe broke. He replaced drywall, cut and replaced wood trim, baseboards, and wood paneling at the bottom half of one wall. Then he primed and painted. And, he cleaned up when done. We will definitely hire Steve for future jobs. Mary Thurmond"

FAQs for painting projects in Maryland Heights, MO

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.
