"Matt Raymond, the owner of Crescent Hill Painting did a wonderful job of painting interior rooms in my home. He made sure all areas not to be painted were protected. He was always on time. Very polite and patience with my questions. My husband and I are very satisfied with his work. He left the rooms cleaner then when he arrived. His price was reasonable. If need something painted get on his listð"

"Javier is the best! He tore up old carpet flooring and installed wood floors incredibly fast and did an amazing job. We also hired him for some interior painting that was done in no time and looks great. We would absolutely use him again for all our flooring and painting needs!"

"I hired J.A.C. Painting to do some work for my mother due to distance, not being able to do so myself. My request for quote was responded to same day as request. In the course of five days the work was completed (it was outside work, weather was a factor). My mother is so pleased with the quality of work, she has taken J.A.C. on for additional work. I HIGHLY recommend J.A.C. Painting!"

"Anton did a very nice job cleaning and staining our log home. It had been neglected by the previous owner and needed a lot of work. He also replaced rotted siding on our barn, fixed some significant structural defects and stained it. A nice job and finished in a timely fashion. Anton was here supervising the job all the time. Would definitely hire again"

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.
