Before you book trim, baseboard & door painting
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Walk the house and mark the trim
Take photos of the worst baseboards, casings and doors. Include the rooms with nicks from furniture or flooring work.
Decide on sheen and color
Pick the color and the sheen you want, or ask the pro to match the existing trim. Bright white trim on warm walls can look stark, so check samples against your wall color.
Tell the pro what the trim is made of
Wood, MDF and plastic trim need different primers. A note that you have stained oak or painted pine helps the pro bring the right primer.
Move furniture off the walls
Pull sofas, beds and shelves away from baseboards. Open floor space around the wall makes masking quicker and gives you better lines.
Flag the home age
If your house was built before 1978, say so in the notes. Testing the old trim paint for lead is easier before sanding than after.
Plan for curing time
Fresh enamel feels dry long before it hardens. Avoid leaning furniture, closing doors tight or running a vacuum along baseboards until your pro says it has cured.
Say where in Woodside you are
Add your neighborhood, for example Central Woodside, Woodside Heights, and Skywood, or your ZIP code to your notes. Pros choose the neighborhoods they cover, and it tells them how far they have to travel.
