When a homeowner in Nazareth, PA reached out looking to update the look of their brick without completely covering up its natural texture, I knew this would be a unique project. They had already chosen a specialty product—Romabio, an Italian-made mineral-based paint—and were looking for someone who could apply it properly and bring their vision to life.
Even though I hadn’t used Romabio before, I took the time to learn exactly how it was designed to be applied. Romabio is different from standard acrylic paints. It soaks into the surface and creates a breathable, natural finish. This allows the texture and character of the brick to show through. This product isn’t just about covering—it’s truly about enhancing.

The Importance of Preparation
Before applying anything, I did a full cleaning of the brick and soffits. Good preparation is half the job, especially with a product like Romabio that bonds differently than standard paint. We chose to spray the product, which provided a soft, even finish. This technique allowed the natural variation in the brick to come through beautifully. It’s a delicate balance—you want adequate coverage, but you don’t want to hide the character.
Client Reaction and Transformation
By the time we wrapped up, the homeowner was ecstatic. They were amazed not just by the end result, but also by how quick and clean the process was. The vision they had in their mind—that soft, European-style brick finish—became reality on the front of their home. The transformation was striking!
And best of all, it was done with care and constant communication throughout the project.


Why Choose Romabio?
Romabio is a wonderful option for homeowners who want:
A natural, mineral look as opposed to heavy painted brick.
A breathable finish that won’t trap moisture beneath it.
A coating that ages beautifully rather than peeling over time.
While it's not suitable for every project, when it fits, the results are both beautiful and long-lasting.
