Unlike wall painting, baseboards require careful preparation because they collect dust, scuffs, and grime over time, especially in high-traffic areas near entryways and hallways. The process begins with a thorough cleaning to remove dirt and grease, followed by sanding to smooth out any imperfections or old paint drips. Cracks and nail holes are filled with wood filler, then sanded again before priming. A high-quality primer is essential to prevent stains from bleeding through, especially on older wood baseboards common in historic Des Moines neighborhoods. The painting itself involves two coats of durable, semi-gloss or satin enamel, chosen for its easy cleanability and resistance to scuffs from vacuum cleaners, mops, and foot traffic. For properties in Des Moines, where seasonal humidity and heating cycles can cause wood to expand and contract, using flexible, moisture-resistant paint helps prevent cracking and peeling. The work is done with angled brushes for crisp lines along the wall edge and floor, and careful masking of carpet or hardwood ensures no overspray. This attention to detail makes baseboard painting a finishing touch that elevates the entire interior, whether you are preparing a home for sale or refreshing a rental property. ## Areas We Cover in Des Moines Des Moines Painting Company provides baseboard painting services across the Des Moines metro area, including neighborhoods such as Accent, Arbor Peaks, Avon, Avon Lake, Beaverdale, and Brook Run.
