That green is gone. Notice how much brighter the front porch is. The creamy undertones of the new trim/siding really highlight the lighter bricks. Everything is so much cleaner and we love this fresh facelift.
This home had a lot of wood rot on the Tudor trim. We replaced all the rotted wood, primed, caulked and painted. We also filled some stucco cracks. Our color consultant helped our customer select some great color changes. The new softer colors compliment the stone and roof well.
This is a perfect example of how to use accent colors. The house before was all white with no definition, breakouts or trim. The black accent color on the shutters, door and garage door hardware is a great touch. The white on door frames and windows balances it all out.
We took this before photo after we power washed and began caulking. Notice how dull and faded the house paint color was. Now it has a beautiful sheen that will resist mildew and the sun’s ultraviolet light for years to come. Side note: Brilliant idea from our customer to have us permanently remove the old shutters for a cleaner look.

We removed the shutters, painted the brick an awesome modern grey that the customer and our color consultant came up with. The siding got an updated blue for a some pop and the trim was transformed from a peach beige to a soft cream. We joked with the customer they might drive right by their own house when they returned from…
