"My daughter found Alex and referred him to us for an interior house painting project. The job included painting the ceilings and walls in three bedrooms, changing all the window trim from black to white, and repainting the basement ceiling, walls, closet door, and the inside of the shelves from black to white. The project was completed in three and a half days, exactly as outlined in the contract agreement. The quality of the painting work was very good, and we are happy with the results. The only issue was that one item was accidentally left out of the contract. However, once I pointed it out to Alex, he immediately agreed to take care of it. Overall, we had a positive experience and appreciated his willingness to make things right."

"All the people I met listened to my needs. They managed to get a pasta sauce stain out of my ceiling! I am really glad to see that gone. The painters were both professional and meticulous. My ceilings have never looked so good. We have already started talking about painting the rest of the house and will call Brian and his team to do the job. Thanks for the great service!"

"I used Professional Painter for the second time. I hired them in March of 2024 as I stated in the review I posted at the time. Krystian is my painter for life. He arrived everyday on time. Almost every room in my house needed paint refreshing including base boards. After moving in we were left with wall dents and cracks. Krystian never fails he takes pride in his work and my house looks brand new. He loves painting I can tell. He checks each room one by one inspecting the finished product. His rates are very fair. He goes that extra step each time. No mess after he has completed the job. He is very clean and professional. I would use Krystian again in a heart beat. He has never failed to give his best. He is my family painter for life. Try him for yourself, you won't be disappointed."

"Miguel did a remarkable job painting the south side of our house. His preparation was unparalleled, and his detail in painting was beyond our expectations. We were so impressed with his work that we hired him to stain our deck. Again, he did a superb job."

"Taulant did a great job with my small drywall project. He arrived last Saturday morning and finished the job later that afternoon. I will do my own painting and I'm confident it will look seamless once painted. I strongly recommend him"

FAQs for painting projects in Mundelein, 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.
