"Leandro and his crew did a great job staining my house and painting the trim. The crew showed up when they said they would and came everyday (weather permitting) until the job was finished. His price was very fair for the work performed. Most importantly, Leandro returned all my emails within minutes. Highly recommend.."

"Great experience with Carlos and his crew painting my 1872 Victorian in Ridgefield. They spent several days prepping and sanding the exterior down to the wood. They re-glazed windows, removed and painted the wooden-framed window screens, and removed and painted the shutters as well. There was one section of wood rot that they replaced - all while staying within budget. No surprises. We went over all the details and expectations beforehand and I could not be happier with how my house is looking now. HIGHLY RECOMMEND if you have a daunting paint job. My house required several extremely tall ladders and these guys were up and down like it was nothing. Great crew, great work - top notch."

"I highly recommend CRS Painting for any home improvement needs. They recently completed several projects at my home, including painting the exterior of the house, installing vinyl flooring, and removing a popcorn ceiling in the bathroom. Their work was high quality, done efficiently, and the team was professional and respectful throughout the process. Communication was clear and timely, and they took care to ensure everything was completed to my satisfaction. If you’re looking for a dependable and skilled team for painting or general home updates, CRS Painting is an excellent choice."

"We had two homes and a garage which needed painting. We posted the job on Home Advisor and Fernando answered within 15 minutes. He came to our property that day, and sent us a very reasonable quote which was less than what another contractor had quoted us. Fernando's plentiful reviews on Home Advisor were ALL 5-star, so we felt comfortable in hiring him. Fernando was able to start the job within a couple of days, and worked with our schedule. He provided paint samples of quality paint for us to see the actual colors we liked on the exteriors. He was patient as we decided. His crew of Louis, Marco and Marcado were affable, friendly and hard-working. They even were willing to work on a Sunday and long hours to finish the job in time. Fernando always put a smile on our faces with his upbeat attitude and positive manner. We hired him to do other projects while there including repairing some stone work on a chimney, stripping wallpaper and interior painting, and putting on an exterior door. It seems Fernando and his team can do anything. Fernando always answered our calls and emails promptly, and said we could contact him up until about midnight. Fernando is a dream to work with. We think he should change his company name to Happy Home Painting and Projects - because Fernando is always happy and his work makes you happy. My husband is an engineer, and has always done our painting and construction projects. He is meticulous, and has an experienced eye. Fernando even made my husband happy, which makes me happy. We had a pizza party to celebrate our beautiful painted homes and garage with Fernando and his team. Fernando and his guys feel like family after knowing them a short time. We look forward on doing more projects with Fernando and Company. You will not be disappointed if you hire Fernando. He says his goal is to make you happy with his work. And he does!"

FAQs for painting projects in Trumbull, CT

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.
