Good. They were able to get the job done earlier than scheduled. They were prompt and courteous. The finished product looks great so far. They did the job for less than 2 of the 6 quotes that we received, but we chose them because they use Sherwin Williams Duration paint. They did not seem to be concerned about paint chips/lead contamination, but we did not ask them to do anything specific before they started the job.
Description of Work: Prepped and painted exterior siding, trim, soffits.

Bella Casa overall is a company that I would highly recommend to anyone getting their house painted. From the initial bid to the final work being completed, Bella Casa was timely and detail oriented. Their team was efficient and left the site clean and organized everyday. I am very happy with the Bella Casa team.
Description of Work: We had Bella Casa paint the upper-half of our 1908 two-story house as well as do some cosmetic repairs to the tongue and grove wainscoting of the eaves of the house. We also had them replace some damaged cedar shakes on the side of the house.

They did an excellent job. It was humid weather and I had to close some windows before they had totally cured. Some of the windows stuck shut and had some chipped paint. I called Alan and they promptly came back and touched them up for me.

A really excellent experience! Alan and his crew were great, the surface preparation was very thorough, they kept the job site very neat and tidy. Alan was very helpful in discussing which types of paint to use where, and in helping me finalize my color selections. My house looks great, and I couldn't be happier with the result. My neighbors have all been highly complimentary and have asked me for their number.
Description of Work: Painted entire exterior of my house: the stucco, the trim, the shutters, the doors. Replaced broken glass in windows where necessary.

Everything went smoothly - they were quick to come out and do the estimate and ultimately were the lowest bid of the companies we looked at. Overall the work was excellent, very attentive to detail, kept us informed and updated as to progress, the painters were very good about cleaning up every day and were generally very easy to work with and professional. I would definitely use them again.

I contacted Bella Casa Painting in May 2007 via phone, after seeing their ad in our local news paper, which also referenced Angie's List. Roger came over the next day and provided an estimate on the spot and provided me with valuable information about the exterior painting process. The job was scheduled for late July. The Bella Casa Painting team arrived on a Monday and finished 5 days later. Roger and team were great at telling me what to expect each day of the process. The results were fantastic and Roger and his team were extremely professional for the entire experience. I may hire them for some interior painting work this winter.
Description of Work: Roger and team painted the exterior of our 1.5 story stucco home and detached garage. In addition, they fixed any broken window glazing, replaced broken or rotted wood trim, caulked around windows and fixed minor cracks in the stucco.

They were very knowledgeable, efficient, and fast. They had the house painted in less than 4 days. A number of painters were working together who really knew what they were doing. Everything was covered. One of the owners was here everyday to supervise and answer questions. They also gave me a very realistic bid and they stuck to their quote. They were very accommodating.

Outstanding! These guys are the best. Al and Roger know exactly what they are doing, their crews have worked together for a long time and the quality is the best. Results were far better than expected. Excellent attention to detail. Very neat and clean and done very timely. They work very hard until the job is done to your complete satisfaction. No $$ down to start the work, other than a minimal, refundable deposit to hold a place no the calendar. Why go anywhere else. High quality, great prices, custom work, complete satisfaction.
Description of Work: Complete exterior paint job of south Minneapolis home. Work included powerwashing home, scraping, sanding, caulking, replacing old boards, prime, and multiple coats of high-quality paint (3 colors, siding, trim and windows).

Allan and his crew are absolutely terrific, and we recommend them highly. In fact, our neighbors hired them for a small job while they were working on our house! All five of the Bella Casa guys were completely professional and efficient. They were very easy to have around, as they were always pleasant and left a completely clean work place. Most important: the paint job looks wonderful--and it's worth noting that theirs was the lowest bid (by far) of four we got. To sum up, Bella Casa did fine work quickly and well. The only complaint (minor) we have is that in a few spots the prep could have been a little more thorough, with a bit more caulking needed. But overall, we couldn't be more pleased. Quality work at an incredibly reasonable cost. Win; win!

Unfortunately, the latex satin paint used for bookwork was flatter in appearance than the eggshell walls. Roger and Allen repainted using gloss latex at no extra charge. The finished woodwork now has a gloss, but is less smooth than the satin, possibly because they had to brush and roll rather than spray these areas (masking and spray were no longer an option after walls had been painted). Still, I like the result and will definitely use this company again, although probably not the same paint.
Description of Work: Prepped and painted large bedroom walls, ceiling, woodwork, radiator and 2 wall sconces. Repaired and sanded many settling cracks in plaster walls, caulked gaps. Sprayed ceiling with oil primer, due to smoking in home. Sprayed 2 coats latex paint on ceiling and woodwork. Painted walls with 2 coats latex paint using brushes and rollers. Work was very professional, results beautiful. Roger and Allen are careful and meticulous. I cannot find any of the previous wall cracks. Work was completed in the estimated 2 days.

Alan was very professional when they came to give their estimate. His price was the best. He was helpful and patient in picking colors. Was willing to accommodate gutters being replaced at the same time. His crew did a nice job, paid attention to detail, getting the inside of the windows and everything. The house looks great, we are very pleased. We also ended up having them stain our deck and paint rooms in the interior of the house.

Alan and his crew had also painted the outside of our house and did just as nice of a job inside as outside. The trim looks great, gives each of the rooms a very clean look. This was four months ago and everything still looks great.

Roger came out for an estimate within 2 days of our call. Because of busy times our painting was scheduled for spring 2007. However, a month later we received a call that, if we wanted, the painting could be done this fall. Even though we were also installing a new driveway at the same time he worked around it. He cleaned up any mess and left us with a nice looking house.

Bella Casa did a great job on the painting of the windows and the soffit/fascia of our two story house. They replaced all the rotted wood and some trim that was missing. We are quite pleased with their work. The workers were punctual and cleaned up every day. We have no complaints. (There were some broken branches on a large bush on the side of our house). However, there was no way to place the ladders and paint without damaging the bush.
Description of Work: They scrapped, sanded and then painted the soffit and fascia on our two story house. They replaced all rotted wood as well. IN addition, they sanded, scrapped and painted all the window sashes in the house.

They are superb! They provided us with references (the only one of five bidders to do so) and those references couldn't say enough great things about them. Upon contract, they let us try a few colors on the house before selecting the final Sherwin Williams Woodscape stain (and WE LOVE our selection. Thanks to Alan & crew for offering suggestions as the right choice was definitely made), not to mention their bid was the best we received (lower by more than 1/3). It was difficult finding a company who knew how to deal with a cedar home and their work was impeccable. They were quiet, neat, extremely nice and truly exceeded our expectations. And they were the only bid that included a two-year guarantee (not to mention the Italian in us loved the company name). Everyone who sees our home raves about it & without a doubt we will use them again in the future! If you need any painting/staining done inside or outside your home, Bella Casa is the only way to go!!
Description of Work: Power wash, caulk holes/cracks/etc., nail repair and stain/paint (included insect/wood pecker repellent), the exterior of a 3700 square foot home which is completely done in CEDAR shakes. Also, painted trim boards, foundation, beams & shutters.

VERY RELIABLE, PRETTY CAREFUL AND HONEST. THEY ACCIDENTALLY RIPPED THE WALLPAPER IN MY DINING ROOM, LET ME KNOW RIGHT AWAY THAT THIS WAS THEIR ERROR AND STRIPPED THE OLD WALLPAPER AND REPAINTED AT NO COST TO ME. I WOULD HAVE LIKED THEM TO BE MORE CAREFUL ABOUT NOT GETTING PAINT ON MY WINDOWS WHEN DOING THE EXTERIOR TRIM, BUT OVERALL THEY DID A NICE JOB AND IF YOU KEEP ANY EYE ON WHAT THEY'RE DOING, VERY RESPONSIVE TO MY REQUESTS. THEY'RE EXPENSIVE, BUT WORTH IT.

THE OWNERS, ALAN KELLY AND ROGER APPELHOLM, WERE ENTIRELY PROFESSIONAL, COURTEOUS, RESPONSIVE AND ALL AROUND TOP NOTCH GUYS TO WORK WITH, THEIR CREW WAS TOO. THEY CLEANED EVERYTHING UP AFTER THEY WERE DONE. THE PRICE AND QUALITY TOGETHER MADE THIS A HUGE WIN FOR ME. THESE GUYS ARE A NEWLY DISCOVERED GEM! THEY ALSO DO INTERIOR PAINTING.
Description of Work: I SAW THE WORK THEY DID ON MY NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE SO I KNEW THE QUALITY WAS VERY GOOD. I ASKED FOR A BID AND THEY CAME IN BELOW ALL THE OTHERS. THE JOB WAS PAINTING MY ALUMINUM SIDED HOUSE AND WOOD GARAGE, NO TRIM. THEY PRESSURE WASHED THE HOUSE, DID EXTENSIVE SCRAPPING ON THE GARAGE AND TOOK OFF THE VIRGINIA CREEPER VINE, AS WELL AS PATCHING ALL HOLES IN THE ALUMINUM SIDING. THIS WAS EXTENSIVE PREP WORK AND THEY DID IT VERY THOROUGHLY. THEY PUT TWO COATS OF TOP QUALITY SHERWIN-WILLIAMS PAINT ON THE HOUSE AND GARAGE. THEY ALSO PREPPED AND PAINTED THE TRIM AND GARAGE DOOR ON THE GARAGE WITHOUT CHARGE, IT WAS A SMALL AMOUNT OF WORK AND IT REALLY MADE IT LOOK NICE. THE HOUSE AND GARAGE LOOKS FANTASTIC!
