For construction professionals, accurately estimating the cost to paint doors and trim is crucial. In 2025, the average cost ranges from $70-$110 per side for standard interior doors and $120-$180 for French or panel doors. Baseboards and casing cost $1.75-$3.50 per lineal foot, while crown moulding ranges from $2.50-$4.75 per lineal foot. These figures include labor, standard prep, and mid-grade paint but exclude major repairs.
