Latest News Thu, Nov 30, 2023 12:12 PM

Are you looking forward to home renovation? Or you maybe want to refresh your curb appeal? Selecting the right exterior paint colour might be a tough decision if you want it to be exceptional. Although classic neutral solutions will never go out of style, you may also want to consider a bit bolder options. What colour should you choose to emphasize the architectural style of your house?

One solution does not exist

Shades of white have been obvious choices for years when it comes to exterior paint. Even when you ask the most renowned painting and decorating contractors in London, they will unanimously reply that white is still frequently chosen paint. Nowadays, new trends have become more and more visible. People crave for colour and they manifest it not only through stylish clothes, but also the front of their houses.

Modern and elegant look

There are many factors that are taken into consideration before choosing the right paint colour. The location is quite important, as well as the restrictions on the house paint colours, especially when you live in a historic district or a community. Sometimes you may also take neighbours into account, if you do not feel comfortable with your house sticking out.

However, if you have already decided to make the front of your house more attractive, it is time to set another goal. Hire experienced painting and decorating contractors from London and let them give you the best colour suggestions.

What to choose for positive impression?

There are people who prefer safe, neutral and warm tones for their house exterior. On the other hand, there is a vast number of those who opt for more vibrant shades. It might be a psychological issue, but if you want to increase the home value for any reason, here are the most popular options:

  • ivory – with this paint you will obtain both classic and warm look. It perfectly composes with summer and autumn colours, evoking positive associations. Creamy shades are the English favorites!
  • gray – perfect for houses in contemporary style, which serves as an ideal background for the surrounding. If you want it to be subtle, choose dove gray, but if you opt for something bold, a charcoal shade will be the best option.
  • pale blue – works great in urban homes, as well as in those located in the suburb. It greatly accentuates the details – elements and textures that might be unnoticed – making your property look elegant and well-maintained.

Uncommon solution

Shades mentioned above are extremely popular nowadays. Do you want your exterior to look more vibrant? Choose the help of specialists! Painting and decorating contractors in London can definitely suggest something more adventurous. Whether it is pink, sage green, black, red or muted brown – always consult the shade with experienced and certified painters. They will adjust the colour to the surrounding, your personality and architectural style, no matter if it is barn-style home in the woods, house in the city or Victorian property in the suburbs.
