"The Lagunas Painting guys were a fast team and were done in 2 days with only minor touch up work on the morning of the third day. I am very pleased with the work done. Overall it has been a great experience. The painters saved me a lot of work having to do a job myself. The house looks great! I will definitely be calling back to have them stain my back deck before the end of summer."

"Tim called me right away, came to look at the project, and had our fence painted for a reasonable price all within about 3 days. When we arrived home after work, the property was spotless with a brand new painted fence. We would definitely hire again!"

"Price was very reasonable. Marcos responded to any texts or emails quickly and kept all timelines that were set. He sprayed the house one day and painted the next, with no delays. The painting was good. He underestimated the amount of paint needed and had to get more, but still finished in record time. Found a couple areas of overspray, but we fixed it ourselves with the leftover paint. Was quite a bit younger than the other guys who gave us estimates, but took his job very seriously, and turned out to be the best choice!"

"It was easy to get the job done. And the painter had good suggestions on accenting the wall. My daughter was very happy with the room. We also had cabinets painted and it spruced up the bathroom. Over all a great paint job ."

FAQs for painting projects in Star, ID

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.
