"Our little roofed deck/porch was badly in need of restraining. We had done it ourselves in the past, but just didn't feel up to it this year. Left a couple of message with contractors, and Monarch was the only one who returned our call. Hunter came on a Sunday morning to look at the deck, explained their process and emailed us an estimate. He had told us they were booked until September so when September was half over I called to check in. He said we were on the schedule for the next week or so. We were actually out of town when they came, and the deck was done when we returned.
It looks nice except for a number of spots that are still shiny and a bit tacky to the touch. Not sure if they'll fade as the stain continues to weather. So it isn't perfect, but we're generally pretty satisfied, and the price was very fair.

"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!"

"Jamie gave us a couple options and we went with the pressure washing. He also came back and sanded areas that he did not charge us for. We had some issues with weather as far as getting it stained but he kept in touch with us and now the deck looks awesome. He did a great job at a very fair price and would highly recommend him."
Before
The paint was in pretty rough shape.
The polyurethane has darkened over the years. You can see where pictures were hung.
Quite a bit of scraping on the lower portions of the porch trim.
Fence is in good shape, but heavily greyed by the sun

"We specifically joined Angie's List so we could find a good painter and it worked!  We got bids from four top-rated companies and decided to go with Bella Casa Painting.  Their bid was in the middle of the pack.   Alan and Roger were very easy to work with.  Roger did a fine job on repairing woodpecker holes and rotted siding and fixing sagging soffits.  It had been 13 years since the house was last painted and we were very concerned that the prep work - scrapping, sanding, caulking, filling, and priming - be done thoroughly because that's fundamental to having a long-lasting paint job.  Alan gave us confidence that they would do a good job on the prep and painting and we were not disappointed.  He recommended a new Sherwin Willilams paint (Emerald) that has a top rating for longevity, and he painted sections of our siding so we could confirm that the three colors we chose would be to our liking.  Because he had to power wash the house anyway, he did our deck for free.  He and Roger also installed new exterior lights for us at no cost.  The painting crew was low-key, polite, efficient, and cleaned up at the end of every day.  We needed to have our house painted in time for visiting relatives, and Bella Casa met our deadline.  Alan gave us a long list of houses to look at so we could see examples of their work and they confirmed the good quality work that Bella Casa does.  He also had no problem showing us the paperwork that confirmed Bella Casa workers are properly insured.  In summary, Bella Casa did a great job and we are very pleased. It's been 3 months since they completed the job and we have not had any need to call them back for any touch-ups.

"Tired of my 30 yr old oak cabinets. I opted to have them painted vs spending thousands more on new or resurfaced. Andres and Mario did a great job in transforming my drab brown cabinets into a more updated white color that makes my kitchen look bigger and brighter. I am very happy with the outcome and I would recommend their services to anyone."

"We were so pleased both with the carpentry crew that replaced the siding on the back of the garage and the painters. Victor and his crew worked very hard and were always personable, even at the end of a long day. They told us when to expect them to arrive and how late they planned to work. There were a couple of things I pointed out that I wanted to make sure they did and they completed them all! I would recommend them to others looking for exterior painting."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.
