"We had Leo and his crew repair and stain our deck a few years ago, and had them back to paint our main level - bedrooms, bathroom, living room, family room, kitchen, and laundry. They also removed and refinished popcorn ceilings. Besides doing a great job. The guys from High Rollers are just fun to have around the house."

"We were very pleased with Brian's work in our new home! We had him remove some wallpaper and do a complete paint job of 2 bedrooms, the living room, and bathroom. I appreciated his communication throughout the process, as some of the walls and ceilings needed a little extra care due to some stains from moisture and nicotine. He left the space neat and tidy when he was done. He knows his stuff and I would not hesitate to hire him again as we continue to work on our home!"

Customers say: Super punctual

"Everything went great.  I have zero complaints!  They did an excellent job and I am happy with it every time I look at the house.  This is not something that, as avid DIYers, we are able to say often!   Since the completion of the job, I have had several friends and neighbors ask me for painting recommendations.  These friends and neighbors have gone on to hire Bella Casa for both exterior and interior projects.  Each was as happy as we were with the service and quality.  I always follow up on recommendations to make sure the company continues to provide the quality I experienced and they have each and every time.  We had one neighbor who did not choose Bella Casa after getting bids.  They ended up not being very happy with the work that was done for them by the other company.  I refrained from saying "I told you so"  but....

Bella Casa was not the lowest bid we received.  In fact of the three we got, it was the highest.  However, it was also the most detailed and complete, included the carpentry work that was going to be necessary and we were confident that there would be no surprises in the final cost.  We were right.  The lowest bidder is not always the best way to go.  Sometimes, you get what you pay for!  Bella Casa was easy to work with, kept us constantly informed of the project, everyone was professional and friendly, and there were no surprises about what was or was not included in the bid.  They were also very patient and understanding as we struggled to choose the colors.  The back of our house looked like a patchwork quilt by the time we made our choices!  We will hire them again and we continue to send our friends to them."

"We HIGHLY recommend Aaron and his awesome crew. Not only are they all great to work with, the work they performed (house, deck and trim paint) is impeccable. What tiny problems there were (the fault of the previous paint) they immediately fixed. We were out of town for a portion of the job, and our neighbors still talk about how pleasant and meticulous the crew was. I would hire Prime Painting Concepts for all our painting needs!"

"We had our kitchen cabinets and all of the upstairs rooms painted, and the results were fantastic. They had great attention to detail and the cabinets have the finish I was looking for. The crew was professional, reliable, and kept everything clean throughout the project. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality painting work!"

Customers say: True professional

"The workmen did not speak English and were not proceeding the task of refinishing my deck as was agreed on with the salesperson. After some difficulty reaching management, management indicated they would like the workmen to complete the work in the manor that the workmen wanted to do it. I agreed and the ultimate results were very satisfactory. It was just frustrating because management/salesman led me to believe the job would be executed one way but the workmen wanted to do the job "the way they always do it". The workmen did a very nice job so I am happy with the outcome."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.
