Need help with Render and moulding colours
Comments (11)Hi Sarah I absolutely think what you have suggested is perfect. I love Paperbark for the mouldings and the double strength for render. The brick you chose is awesome. I think you've got it sorted. How exciting! All the best. Regards Lisa PS. I love the elevation....See MoreNeed help to choice brick and render colour for front facade
Comments (6)We recently finished our new house- we chose colorbond dune for the render and pgh bricks in nickel flash, we love it and have had so many compliments. We got tired of seeing every house with a dull monotone brick- ours has soft greys and brown tones. If you go on the pgh or boral brick sites you can check out different colour schemes....See MoreHelp! Need to paint render, but what color?
Comments (12)Go grey as advised above, don't paint window frames if they are metal but leave alone, plant sasanqua camelias along the side boundaries (they can be hedged) to screen out neighbours & add greenery plus colour, landscape the front. Don't do white stones as they look dirty after a while and are blinding in the sun. I'd get rid of the stones altogether. If you are a gardener, put in box hedging and some standard roses (yes, I know done to death but they are charming), or draw up something on paper first - play with shapes. A garden makes a house look good....See MoreNeed help with render colour
Comments (19)Thank you everyone for your input. It has been keeping me up nights. Yes Lesley, the house is built. The picture I posted above is the actual house , with the white being the render to be painted. Due to all the greys and browns I did think something in a brown tone might be best. I love the suggestion of Dune. I had looked at it but I think I overlooked it as I read that render should be four shades darker as it washes out in sunlight. (is that even true?). I do like the look of that linseed too. I now think the purple would be a bridge too far. I chose the Woodland Grey believing it would look like the swatches above..a lovely green/grey.the trouble is..it looks just like dark grey on the house unfortunately. The brick and roof are fine too but they are much like Ayer's Rock..the brick looks sometimes red, sometimes brown and the roof sometimes grey/green, sometimes light grey....See Moremonmou
