Help Me with Painting the Exterior of My House

11 years ago

Hi All,

Im hoping someone can give me ideas for the painting of my new house. As you can see by the picture it is in need. I have decided to do the wrought iron in traditional black. I was thinking of doing the trim in grey or white with a red door. I am having a hard time visualizing however. Any advice would be appreciated.

I suggest using the Benjamin Moore Color Viewer. You can virtually 'paint' the photograph of your house and see exactly what it's going to look like. I did this several years ago, and though my painter had his doubts about the color before he applied it, he admitted afterward that it was the perfect choice!

Here is a link that might be useful: Benjamin Moore Color Viewer
