Sis10336654 on Nov 14, 2016my contractor said he could refinish baseboards to match with stained crown moulding just as cheaply as he could paint them. Mismatched trim is not ideal.Helpful Reply

William on Nov 14, 2016Do not paint the baseboard. All moldings should be the same. If painted, it would look like there was no baseboard.Helpful Reply

Val Loseman on Nov 15, 2016i remodeled my kitchen. my house is almost 100 years old and has painted base molding 9" I added crown molding that I stained. I left it for quite a few years but something always bothered me about it. It looked just ok. last year i repainted the walls and decided to paint the crown white to match the ceiling. I love it. the stained crown was cutting the room in half by painting it it looks so much cleaner and correct. Stain your molding and if you don't like it paint it later, but if I add anymore in my house it's going white. (I have always been opposed to painting wood, not anymore)Helpful Reply
