Restore Baseboards Without the Headache

They’re easy to ignore—until they aren’t. Baseboards might not be the stars of your home, but when they’re scratched, dirty, or worn down, they quietly drag the whole room down with them. The good news? We can show you how to restore baseboards, and it doesn’t have to be a headache.

Why Bother With Baseboards?

Baseboards do more than just sit there looking pretty:

• They protect your walls from daily wear and tear.

• They hide the seam between floor and drywall.

• They add visual polish and charm.

If your trim is dingy, cracked, or has decades of paint caked on, it’s time for some TLC.

3 Ways to Restore Baseboards Back to Life

1. Clean ‘Em Up

Start with the basics. Use warm soapy water and a microfiber cloth to remove dust, grime, and mystery smudges. For tough spots, a magic eraser works wonders.

2. Caulk the Cracks

Notice gaps between your trim and the wall? That’s where caulk comes in. A smooth bead of paintable caulk hides flaws and keeps things looking seamless.

3. Fresh Coat of Paint

You don’t need to repaint the whole house. A clean white semi-gloss on your baseboards can brighten a room instantly. Just be sure to tape off your floors and use a steady hand.

Pro Tip: Use painter’s tape and an angled brush for crisp lines that look like a pro did it (or, you know… just hire us).
