Not sure how yellow you're wanting but if you're looking for a good 'greige' (yellow hue family) take a look at Sherwin Williams Drift of Mist or Contemporary White from Glidden which you can find at The Home Depot.

Can grout colour be changed?! :(

Thanks Steve. We selected the colour from actual grout samples (not a colour chart) and yes we also had the tile with us at the time... the lighting there was pretty poor though :/ A little confused, you say that raking out joints is no big deal but then that using grout sealear is very tedious... do you mean removing old grout not so hard but applying new grout is harder? Now I'm starting to wonder if they did indeed use the wrong colour, as we had also selected another even lighter grey for the wall tiles and wondering if they used that on the floors too... and even if they did, I'm not sure what can be done about it now :/

I Like the up down cylinder/square black lights but your lights are high set so it would be just down light. I have a light like the last photo but it's a chunky cylinder instead of square, I think I got it at Bunnings ages ago, it's on an internal courtyard wall and looks amazing when turned on. Could your cousin do one of each, ie: up down and just down, Just down on the entrance as you don't want to light up the entrance ceiling and up down on the tall wall, it would be great if it could be dropped down a bit. cheers

Thank you for your feedback. Black would tie in with the front fence & we need to buy a new roller door so having that in black too would tie it all together. I’m also thinking if we change the front door to Black it would work too. Does anyone favour white?

The green you have complements the red brick work quite nicely. It looks like you have powder-coated aluminium frames which I recommend you don't paint. Your security screen door and neglected and unplanned landscape is letting the house down. I would be trimming back, and engaging a landscape design professional for something that is attractive and suits your home and lifestyle, to make a better feature of your entry. Best of luck, Dr Retro of Dr Retro House Calls

Some of the nicer yellows are in the white/neutral paint chip sections.

Yellow is tricky... I used a BM that was called Desert Tan and it was quite yellow with no green.

How dark of a color are you thinking of? I agree that some of the better, light yellows are actually in the yellow-toned white section. Behr has a bright, cheery, light one called Lemon White. Or a more antique-white yellow tone called Spinning Silk. If you're looking for a darker color, I like Behr's Inheritance or Royal Gold (RG is one shade lighter) -- I think they're in the browns rather than the yellows. I struggle with true yellows so I'm not much good there. ;)

On the other hand, if the yellow has too much white there won't be enough contrast with white cabinets. I had good luck w SW Hinoki in a kitchen - definitely yellow, but softer - not screamy school bus yellow.
