The selection of exterior paint colours can go from the traditional whites and grey to the bolder yellows and reds. There are some general rules to follow with exterior colours; although, the prevailing rule is picking the colour that you like best.<\/p>\n
We typically do not recommend bold and bright colours because they often fade quicker. More muted tones are the common choice in exterior painting because of their colour retention. There are so many colours to choose, and the right choice can still seem daunting. We will provide you with colour decision making strategies, tools, and support.<\/p>\n
A tried and true suggested strategy for exterior colour selection is a drive around neighbourhoods noting colours you like and trying to find houses with similar styles to yours.<\/p>\n
We can provide you with colour cards and charts to start your colour choice process.<\/p>\n
Our partner suppliers each have colours available online that you can view from home. These websites are a great way to start your search for colours; however, we do add a word of caution that colours on your computer screen may not exactly be as shown. The colour is only as good as the screen on which it appears. A client should never rely solely on these online resources and should get a sample of the true colour before proceeding.
\nColours within the below links are suitable for: siding, trim, cement, brick, aluminium siding, metal surfaces, plastics, solid stains, epoxy coatings, and porch and floor paint.<\/p>\n
A colour visualizer allows a client to utilise a picture of the side(s) of the exterior of their home and see it with the colours they choose. These visualizers are great tools that are easy to work with and can help with your colour selections. As with any online colour tool, the colour is only as good as the screen on which it appears. A client should never rely on the visualizer and should get a sample of the true colour before proceeding.<\/p>\n
If a client so desires, we can provide access to a designer to aid in the colour selection. We also have access to our supplier stores, many of which have in house colour consultants available, and we can refer you to them for a consultation.<\/p>\n
If a client has narrowed down the choices to a couple of candidates but is still not sure, we can provide paint samples for them to use. These samples are a cost-effective way to get it right. We can order paint samples for pick up, and a client can utilise them to ensure the colour is as expected.<\/p>\n
We can also provide a service whereby one of our staff members will put up colour samples for review<\/p>\n
Once you decide on colours, you should create a schedule for colours whereby you identify each area of the exterior for a colour (Colour identifications consists of \u201cName of Colour\u201d, \u201cColour Number\u201d, \u201cBrand or Manufacturer\u201d)<\/p>\n
You should email the complete schedule to us a s soon as decided. We appreciate if all colour information is emailed to us prior to job start<\/p>\n
