Choosing a new color to paint your home's exterior can be a bit of an adventure. Finding the right colors to brighten the outside of your home means doing a little research. Your professional painters can help you know what's popular at the moment and provide recommendations. You'll also want to do a little legwork to find out what suits you and blends well with the style of your home and neighborhood.
Take a Trip
Drive around your neighborhood and see what other people have used to dress their homes. Don't forget to speak with your homeowners association, because they may have some pointers on exactly what palettes are allowed. Pay attention to your own architecture; if you live in a planned suburban neighborhood, take a look at home similar to yours to get an idea of what different colors look like in real life.
Surf the web and utilize home design websites for inspiration. You can see how other homeowners adopted particular color schemes to get a better idea of what a color will look like over a large area. Finally, talk to your paint contractor and ask if they know of particular colors or combinations that have been popular in recent times.
Do Some Experimentation
Ask for swatches or an entire color chart from your professional painters. You can purchase small quantities of paint that you can use to apply to the exterior of your home in patches. Try base and trim colors next to each other and in as many different areas of lighting as possible. This will give you a better idea of how the color will look over your entire home and from every side.

Your home's paint is its skin. It is its armor, and its first layer of protection from the elements. It is also the first thing you and other people see when they look at your home. A beautiful home has a strong and vibrant coat of paint on its exterior. If you see a dull and tired house when you look at your own front door, then it is time to contact your local painting contractor for a fresh coat of new paint.
- Protect your home. Without a quality coat of paint, your home's siding and other exterior components are exposed to the sun and weather. Moisture can infiltrate your walls and cause damage and the sun can slowly deteriorate the integrity of your siding. Eventually, sustained damage can compromise the building envelope of your home, impacting your energy efficiency. A fresh coat applied by professional painters not only protects the exterior of your home, but also makes it look beautiful.
- Make a statement. Perhaps it's time for a change. Dressing up your home from old and faded color to a new coat of the same can change the appearance of your house. You can also get adventurous and choose a new color entirely, which is a great way to freshen up your home and enhance your curb appeal.
- Seek longevity. Choose professional painters that use acrylic paint. This type of paint is able to resist the effects of ultraviolet radiation, temperature changes, and long-term weather exposure. It remains colorfast for many years, so your home stays vibrant. It readily adheres to multiple surfaces, including vinyl, metal, and wood.
- Update your look. If you're looking to sell your home, then a new coat of paint is definitely a good call. Homes that have a similar look to those in their neighborhood can be easily passed over, but a home that stands out is more likely to attract potential buyers.
