Baseboard Painting

If your baseboards have dents, stains, brush marks, or peeling paint, they’re stealing the “clean” look from your home. We repaint baseboards properly, prep, fill, sand, and finish, so they stay sharp, white, and flawless for years.

Why Bernardo's Painting for Your Baseboards

Baseboards get scuffed, chipped, and faded faster than almost anything else in your home. They frame every room, and when they look worn, the whole space feels tired. Fresh baseboard paint changes that immediately.

We’ve been doing this for over 24 years, and honestly, baseboards are one of those things people overlook until they see the difference. The detail work matters. The prep matters. And the finish needs to hold up against vacuum bumps, shoe scuffs, and whatever else life throws at it.

You’ll work with painters who’ve been screened, who communicate clearly, and who treat your home like it matters. Because it does. We cover our work with a 2-year warranty, and we make the whole process as simple as it can be. No runaround, no surprises.

Keeping It On Budget and On Time

We know how these projects go. You want it done right, you want it done fast, and you don’t want it to cost more than it should.

Baseboard painting is one of those investments that doesn’t need to break the bank. The cost depends on how much trim you have, the condition it’s in, and whether we’re doing a full repaint or touch-ups. But compared to replacing baseboards entirely, a professional paint job gives you that fresh, finished look without the big expense. We give you a clear estimate upfront based on your specific space.
Most baseboard jobs take a few days, depending on the size of your home. We respect your time and your space. We show up when we say we will, we work efficiently, and we clean up when we’re done. You won’t have tarps and paint cans sitting around for weeks.

Baseboard Paint Finishes Explained

Finish Type Best For Durability Cleanability
Flat/Matte Not recommended for baseboards Low Poor
Eggshell Minimal traffic areas Medium Fair
Satin Living rooms, bedrooms Good Good
Semi-Gloss High-traffic areas, families with kids Excellent Excellent
High-Gloss Modern or formal spaces Excellent Excellent

Semi-gloss remains the most popular choice for baseboards because it wipes clean easily and resists scuffs better than anything else. If you have kids, pets, or just normal life happening, this finish holds up. Satin works well if you prefer a softer look, but you’ll sacrifice a bit of durability. We can walk you through the options based on your lifestyle and the look you want.

Signs Your Baseboards Need Repainting

Your baseboards will tell you when they’re ready for attention. Here are the clearest signs:

  • Visible scuffs and scratches that won't wipe away
  • Chipped or peeling paint along the edges or corners
  • Yellowing or discoloration from age, sunlight, or smoke
  • Gaps between the baseboard and wall that need caulking
  • Mismatched colors from previous touch-up attempts
  • Dingy or dull appearance that makes the room feel dated
  • Water damage or staining near bathrooms, kitchens, or exterior walls
Repainting before the damage gets worse saves you money. Once paint starts peeling or moisture gets underneath, the wood itself can deteriorate. Catching it early means a simple refresh instead of replacement.

Common Questions About Baseboard Painting

Most homes take two to three days, depending on the square footage and number of rooms. We work efficiently without cutting corners. Prep takes time because it makes the finish last, but once that’s done, the actual painting moves quickly. We’ll give you a timeline upfront so you know what to expect.
Not usually. In most cases, we can get a cleaner, faster finish by painting them in place. We tape off your floors and walls, sand and prime as needed, and apply the paint carefully. If your baseboards are damaged or you’re replacing flooring, removal might make sense, but that’s something we’d discuss during the estimate.
We use semi-gloss or satin finishes, depending on your preference. Semi-gloss is more durable and easier to clean, which is why most people go with it for trim. It handles the daily wear better than flat or eggshell. We use quality paints that hold up and look good for years.
Yes. If you’re only painting baseboards in certain rooms, we can match the existing color so everything flows. If you’re looking to go with something new, we can help you choose a shade that works with your walls and flooring. White and off-white are classics for a reason, but we’ve done plenty of custom colors too.
