Baseboards that wipe clean after the vacuum and the dog have been by, finished in the sheen that fits how your house gets used. We cover Westmont, every room and every door.
We cover Westmont, and our trim work goes from the baseboard up: casing, crown, window trim, stair rails and spindles, and every door you want done. Scuffs, dents and nail holes get filled and sanded smooth, and joints get caulked where trim has pulled off the wall. Old oil-based paint gets a bonding primer so the new coat grips. You choose the sheen, and we cut a straight line where the trim meets the wall.
We come into Westmont on Ogden Avenue, Route 83, Cass Avenue or 55th Street, and the Metra station sits in the middle of town. It is a DuPage County village bordering Downers Grove, Clarendon Hills, Darien and Willowbrook. If your baseboards are scuffed from vacuums, shoes or a dog, the sheen you pick matters as much as the color. Satin hides minor dents but takes a little more effort to clean, while semi-gloss wipes clean the best and shows every flaw in the wood, so we fill and sand harder under it. We put both on a board and show you before we start.
Baseboard gets cleaned, the dents filled and the patches sanded flat so the new enamel does not show them.
We show you satin and semi-gloss on a sample so you can see how each one cleans and how much it shows.
The finish is a hard trim enamel made to be wiped down, not a wall paint brushed onto trim.
Gaps along the top of the baseboard and around casing get caulked so dust has nowhere to collect.
Doors and jambs get the same prep, and doors come down to be painted flat where that helps.
Older oil paint gets a scuff sand and a coat of bonding primer, which keeps the new enamel from letting go.
We visit, look at the trim with you and leave you with a free written estimate. It lists the rooms, the doors, the prep and the sheen you picked from the samples. If we find a cracked baseboard or a loose casing that needs fixing first, the cost goes to you in writing and waits for your approval. We book around the days we said and walk every room with you at the end.
