What colours would look best on your house?



After nearly 15 years in the business, meeting thousands and thousands of people and completing several thousand homes, the most common question I am asked after someone hires us to do the work on their home is, "What colour do you think would look best on our house?" To me, it's a loaded question because we are all different and like different colours. I know what colours I like but its not necessarily what someone else likes. I generally give people advice but I always advise them of two things.

The first is to hire a good interior/exterior designer. These people are generally great with colours and can help people choose what colour would look best and what the customer would like. They are usually not expensive and cost around $150-$200 for an hour of time, which is more than enough time to choose your exterior colours.

The second is to use Gentek's Designer Services. Gentek is one of my suppliers and they have a feature on their website where you can upload a picture of your home and then put all kinds of different colours on it. You can also pay them $50 to have one of their Designers help you with uploading your pictures and help you choose what colours would look best on your home! How awesome is that?! Here is the web link to Gentek's Designer Service:

There you go! You are off and choosing your colours whether it's Black or Commercial Brown or even Wedgwood Blue!
