"Angel Painting does an excellent and thorough job. They repaired drywall holes prior to painting. I have used them on three occasions and find the employees to be polite, reliable, honest, and diligent workers. Her estimates are accurate and fair. After each job, she does a final walk through to confirm your satisfaction. I will continue to use her business for any future jobs I may need."

"Working with Primo Painting was a complete joy and breeze. From the initial estimate visit to the day of painting, and the final walk-through, Sean and his team were professional, very timely, and did an excellent job on painting our kitchen, kitchen ceiling, dining room and living room with adjacent foyer and gallery. I would highly recommend Primo Painting for all your paint projects!"

"Nashville Painting Company was recommended to us by Romabio to paint (and stain I guess?) our brick house white. They came out quick for the quote, and despite us deciding to move forward with the job nearly 6 months later they still honored the quote and got us on the schedule quickly. It was originally thought our red brick would only require 2 coats of white tinted Romabio (Sherwin Williams "Greek Villa") but after the 2nd coat it was clear that the coverage wasn't enough and they very quickly worked to rectify with another coat. They also painting our foundation and our porch without issue. We had a color match issue during the porch painting (very likely our fault based on paint samples the previous owner left in the house), but NPC again fixed the problem very quickly and we were left with a perfect porch. The communication is exceptional from beginning to end. Highly recommend to anyone."

"Fernando and Jorge were an absolute dream! After posting the need for interior paint job, Fernando responded within the first 30 minutes and was there same day to provide an estimate for the project. Jorge arrived on time just a few days later to get started, and had the job done in just a few hours (where other quotes expected the job to take days). Both gentlemen were so polite and professional. I would 100% recommend this company for any project, and look forward to hiring them for my next project as well."

FAQs for painting projects in Nashville, TN

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.
