Ellison Painting brings Google Guaranteed, family-owned expertise to Romeo homeowners. 3,000+ projects completed. Quality craftsmanship you can trust.
Romeo runs on an older clock than most of Metro Detroit. Victorian-era homes that were standing before Michigan had paved highways line the village streets, with wood siding, ornate trim, and porches that have hosted generations. Painting these homes well takes patience and knowledge that generic crews don’t carry. Ellison Painting has completed 3,000+ projects across Metro Detroit, and historic homes are work we take personally.

A Victorian exterior is a preparation project before it’s a painting project. Old-growth wood siding holds paint beautifully when it’s scraped, sanded, spot-primed, and sealed correctly, and fails fast when someone rushes to the finish coat. Inside, plaster walls and deep trim profiles reward careful cut-in work. And because Romeo homes are often the most personal projects owners take on, we communicate every step so there are no surprises.
What this means for you:
Yes. Romeo sits at the northern end of our service area alongside Washington Township, Shelby Township and Oakland Township. Call (248) 617-8725 to confirm your address before booking.
We do. A third of Romeo's housing predates 1950, much of it in and around the village, with original wood siding, trim and porch detail that needs careful scraping and priming rather than a quick recoat. We plan that work into the estimate up front.
Surface condition matters more here than square footage, because older homes carry more prep. Trim, porch and window detail all add real labor. Everything is itemized in the written proposal before you decide.
Seven to ten years when the prep is done properly. South and west facing walls take the most sun and usually show wear first, and Michigan's freeze-thaw cycle is hard on caulk joints, so the sealing work matters as much as the paint.
Yes, and they are common on properties in this area. Outbuildings usually need more prep than the house because they have gone longer between coats. We quote them as their own line so you can stage the work.
Whether it’s a Victorian that needs real preparation or a newer build that needs a refresh, we treat your home like it matters. Get a clear, detailed proposal with no surprises.
