"The whole process went very smoothly and efficiently. I had used Manor Works to paint the exterior of my house 10 years ago and so I was familiar with their process. I contacted Victor Tirondola and scheduled an appointment to discuss what I wanted done. It was nice to see him again. He provided me with a quote that included power washing the house, replacing rotted wood with composite, caulking all exterior windows, and using a double coating of Sherwin Williams Duration paint (I upgraded the paint). I was pleased to see the same gentleman, Francisco, who painted my house 10 years earlier was still with this family run company. It was nice to see him again too. They do an excellent job on everything. I am very pleased with the results and would highly recommend them to others."

"I hired Gibbs Painting to make some drywall repairs following a kitchen remodel and had them paint the ceiling in two different rooms. My interaction with them was very professional. From the estimate to the completion of the work, everything went very well. They completed the work In the amount of time they stated, left the house in excellent condition, and the on-site team was very easy to work with. I would hire them again to do work inside my house and would recommend them to others."

"Stephen and Marvin and their crew did an exceptional job from start to finish on our painting project. They are true painting professionals, and not only did they do a quality painting job but the whole experience of clean up and the time it took them to complete the project went very smoothly and at a very reasonable price! Without question we highly recommend Paint the DMV and would definitely use them again….they are the best!"

"They did an excellent job.  The companies service was above and beyond what I expected.  The customer support was great, they responded to my inquiry fast and kept me up to date on the arrival of the painters.  It was also short notice on my part during the holidays and they were able to accommodate me.  The owner showed up with a crew of two.  They not only painted what I asked but they also cleaned the windows (very high) and calked around the windows also.  The painting was difficult because of a narrow edge next to columns but they did it without a mistake.  I hardly knew they were here, they were quiet, professional and when they left they cleaned up everything.  I could not be happier with their work, courtesy, professionalism and I will use them again.

FAQs for painting projects in Merrifield, 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.
