# Trim, Baseboard and Crown Molding Painting | Sharp's Painting

Trim, baseboard, and crown molding painting is the finishing of a room's millwork, the baseboards, door casings, window trim, crown molding, and the doors themselves. Sharp's Painting does that work in Huntington Beach and across coastal Orange County. Owner Robert Sharp is a California C-33 painting contractor, license 1048840, bonded and insured, with 27 years in the trade. Trim is the surface people stand closest to, so the prep decides the result. Every piece gets filled at the nail holes, caulked where it meets the wall, sanded smooth, and primed before any finish coat. Old gloss that is not sanded will not hold new paint, and uncaulked gaps open again as the house moves. Lines where trim meets wall and ceiling are cut by hand rather than taped, which keeps them straight on the uneven plaster common in older coastal homes. Robert runs his own crew, no subcontractors, and is on site. Estimates and paint samples are free, and nothing is owed until you are satisfied.

## How it works
1. **Walk the trim**: Robert looks at every baseboard, casing, door, and run of crown molding, checks for loose caulk and open gaps, and gives you a free estimate.
2. **Prep and protect**: Floors and furniture get covered, then each piece is filled at the nail holes, caulked along the seams, and sanded so the paint lays down flat.
3. **Prime and paint**: Bare and patched spots get primed first, then the trim, doors, and crown are painted with clean lines cut by hand where they meet the wall and ceiling.
4. **Clean up and check**: The crew cleans the space at the end of each day, and Robert walks the finished trim with you to make sure the lines are right before any payment.

## FAQ
### Do you paint baseboards and crown molding a different color than the walls?
Yes. Trim, baseboards, and crown are often done in their own color and sheen, and Robert cuts clean lines by hand so the break between the wall and the trim stays crisp.

### Will you fill the nail holes and gaps before you paint?
That is part of the job. Every nail hole gets filled and the gaps where trim meets the wall get caulked, then sanded, so the finish looks smooth instead of patchy.

### How do you keep paint off my floors and furniture?
The crew covers the floors and moves or wraps furniture before any painting starts, cuts in by hand near the edges, and cleans the space at the end of each day.

### When do I pay for the work?
You pay nothing until the trim is done and you have looked it over. That is a standing policy, and estimates are free. Call us if you have questions.

### Can you paint over stained or varnished trim without stripping it?
Yes, and the trim does not need to be stripped. For trim, baseboard and crown molding painting in Huntington Beach we sand the old varnish until the sheen is gone, then prime it so the new coat has something to grip. Skip that step and painted over varnish peels off in sheets right where shoes, hands and vacuums hit it. Robert Sharp runs his own crew, so the same people do the sanding and the finish coats.
