"Mr. Vandermark and crew did the best job I could imagine. We have a two story house built on a slope so just getting to the walls was quite difficult. We also have a front deck and a back balcony that was included in the job. We have been in our house over 20 years and have never had the whole thing painted, so there was a lot of scraping to be done. Well painted and site left impeccably clean after more than a week of painting. Our neighbors were so impressed they will be having Vandermark & Son for their house painting, too"

"I managed the Quality Assurance /Control for construction of a large Hospital Corporation for over 30 years and worked with many painting contractors. Parker's Painting was very professional and easy to work with from start to finish. I defined my scope of work and schedule expectations, including working around my flooring contractor, moving furniture and keeping the house livable during their work. Their estimate and schedule met the needs of my project. They were prompt and very clean while working minimizing disruption to my wife and 2 Yorkie'. Work was completed on time with no additional charges or extras. They exceeded my expectations for a residential painting contractor. I would suggest you develop a scope of work defining what you want your contractor to do in writing, prior to asking for a price. This will minimize misunderstandings and prevent making changes one the work has started. Good Luck on your project."

FAQs for painting projects in Sparks, NV

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.
