Colors for the outside of your house
Tuesday, December 29th, 2009
Here are some considerations I thought I would pass your way as you decide on the color for the outside of your home:
1. Intense colors run the risk of fading. Oh, it’ll take a few years, but you’ll notice that the vivid colors will “ease up a bit” and appear to gently fade. Remember, as it becomes more subdued, the exact paint match becomes difficult when you do a small touch-up job.
2. On the other hand, dark colors won’t show dust and stains like lighter shades can.
3. Choose carefully. Dark colors absorb heat, yet can give a house a deep majestic look. Dark colors also run a higher risk of moisture problems than lighter shades. Weigh your options as you decide. Call us and we’ll help with your decision.
