A husband-and-wife company
Ken spent fifteen years spraying stucco for Las Vegas home builders. In 2014 he and Tasha started Desert Willow to do the opposite: one house at a time, with the owner home and asking questions.
Tasha runs the office, the HOA paperwork and the color samples. Ken runs the crew.

"Tasha had our HOA approval back in nine days. Ken's crew color-coated the whole house in two days and masked everything like surgeons."
"Our west wall was faded nearly white. Now you can't tell which side gets the afternoon sun. Quote was exactly what we paid."
"They talked me out of elastomeric because my stucco was in good shape. Saved about $2,500. Honest people."

Common questions
Color coat or paint: what's the difference?
A color coat is a thin cement-based coat with the color mixed in. It breathes like stucco and won't peel. Paint (elastomeric) is a flexible film that bridges cracks. We'll tell you which suits your walls.
How long will it last in Las Vegas sun?
A color coat fades gently over 10–15 years. Quality elastomeric holds color 10–12 years on the west and south walls, longer on the others.
Do I need HOA approval?
Almost always, even for the same color. We pull the approved palette, bring samples and submit the form for you.
Do you cover windows and plants?
Yes. Windows, doors, lights and pavers are masked, and plants near the wall are covered and watered after.
Can you fix cracks first?
We always do. Cracks are cut out, patched and textured before any coating, or they show right through.
How do I pay?
Nothing up front for jobs under $5,000. Pay when we've walked the house together and you're happy. Card, check or Zelle.
