"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."

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!"

"Dean recently painted my home. He was professional, timely, and did a great job. He communicated effectively and touched base on the progress frequently. He made sure that things were tidied up at the end of each day. He also scrapped and repainted two rooms ceilings in my home earlier this year, and he completed the job as good as he did the outside. I will be calling Durahome for my future painting needs."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.

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.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.
