Best Colors to Paint Your House

What are the best colors to paint your house? 

Painting your house is one of the easiest ways you can improve the exterior of your home. Hiring a painting services company for your house can be exactly what it needs to feel fresh or get ready for the market. 

The color you decide to paint your home can have a huge impact though. And a bad paint job with unflattering or unsightly colors is hard to recover from. It’s not as easy as picking a color and going. 

What are some things to consider when picking colors?

The siding of the house will draw the most attention, but the impact will be determined by the smaller elements of your home’s exterior – things like the front door, window trims and even the railings can make your house pop.

So you have to pick multiple colors that work well together. Sometimes this means varying shades of the same color, or it can mean colors that add a nice contrast. And if your house is close to other houses, you’ll want to take their colors into consideration too.

What colors work best for home exteriors? 

A professional painting services company will be able to tell you what colors would work best for your home. But right off the bat, there are a few colors that you can’t go wrong with. 

  • Gray: Gray in all shades will work well for an exterior color, mostly because of how well it works with other colors. Pair it with similar earthy tones or with bold colors, gray is sure to be a hit. 
  • White: You might be tempted to shy away from the color. But really, a fresh white coat of paint can make accent colors fun and give your home a clean look. 
  • Navy: Bold colors might seem scary. But if you pair them with the right accent colors, navy can be a great way to make your home stand out.
