We were hired to do the first repaint of this Hardie Board house since it was built. The owners wanted a fresh colour scheme with more impact. They choose a deep blue for the siding and a soft, warm yellow for the accent in the gables. The trim work was repainted in the same bright white.
We did a complete repaint of this house exterior which included the Hardie Board siding, trim work and doors. The owners liked the earthy tones that the house was originally painted with so they had us repaint with similar colours. The brown shades work well with the brick on the front of the house.
The only change we made was bumping up the trim work and door colour to a slightly darker brown so that it gave it more contrast with the body of the house.
Take a look at this exterior transformation! An extensive amount of scraping, sanding and priming was required to get the cedar siding looking good again. Unfortunately it was left far too long in between paint jobs. The new dark green colour looks fantastic, it’s completely changed the look of the house.
A small change made a big impact to exterior of this cape cod style house. It lacked a sense of cohesiveness. The fascia boards were brown and the front door, window boxes and shutters were blue. We needed to find a way to bring this attractive house up to its full potential. When we looked at the house from a distance it was clear that the roof was the dominant colour that couldn’t be ignored. We picked a dark charcoal paint colour called Iron Ore to use on the fascia boards, the front door, window boxes and the overhead garage doors. It was the perfect compliment to roof shingles and worked well with the brick work next to the front door. The house went from being a wallflower on the street to a classy, eye catching property.
We love the stylish blue-gray colour of this house. It’s one of Benjamin Moore’s historic colours called Templeton Gray. The owner contemplated a change, but opted to have us repaint it in the same colour. Why change what looks great! It had been years since the faded siding looked like the colour it was supposed to be. So the owner still felt like they got a new colour regardless. The trim may be coming across as white in the photos, but it’s actually a light gray that works as a nice compliment to the body colour.
This house looks refreshed after some much needed T.L.C was performed. The trim paint was flaking, peeling and faded. It was scraped and sanded down to a sound surface and then a primer was applied to any bare wood. Scroll down to check out the before and after of the front door!
After a thorough cleaning, some sanding and applying a specialized primer we applied two coats of high quality exterior acrylic paint and the door looks brand new again!
The owners wanted to add contrast to the all white exterior of their home. The roof, gutters, downspouts and soffits were already black so it made sense to paint the trim work and front entry door to match. The classic black and white colour combination has added sophistication and curb appeal.
You can make a big impact to the look of your house by changing just the trim colour. This exterior was looking rather bland with the faded green trim. The owners had us repaint it in a deep brown colour to add more contrast with the vinyl siding. The overhead garage doors and front door were painted with a light taupe.
This Hardie board house was well overdue for its first re-paint since it was built, especially on the back where it receives intense sun exposure. In that area the wood trim work barely had any paint left on it. This leaves the wood unprotected and it has started to show signs of cracking and warping. The caulking on most of the house had deteriorated leaving areas of it susceptible to water penetration.
The new owners were not fond of the original earthy green colour scheme. They had us re-paint the siding in a vibrant blue colour. They didn’t want white trim so a light colour called natural linen was used for the trim work and the overhead garage door. The new colour scheme has refreshed the house and given it some character.
