Tips for Painting the Exterior of your Home!
Test Colors in Different Lighting
Exterior colors look different depending on sunlight, shade, and time of day. Paint sample patches on multiple sides of your home and observe them throughout the day. (tip: colours look lighter outdoors, so consider going a shade darker than you think)
Consider all the Elements that need painting
Not just the weatherboards or bricks, think about the Roof, Trims, Soffits, Fascias, Bargeboards, Front Door, Windows, Garage & Garage Door.
Choose a Balanced Color Scheme
Use a main body color, a trim color, and an accent color (for doors or shutters). This adds depth and highlights architectural details.
Consider Your Home’s Architecture
Certain styles suit specific palettes. For example, modern homes look great with neutrals and bold contrasts, while traditional homes pair well with classic, softer tones.
