Help with choosing window style and colour
Hi guys, caoul you give me your advice please on what style window and colour you would use on the attached house. The windows are 1200mmx1200mm.
I would be looking to change the colour of the facia's and down pipes to match the window frame colour.
The door is currently a black composite.
Many thanks

Comments (8)I would go for a stone colour so not too dissimilar to what you've got. Little Greene does a good stone colour too but will work out a bit expensive. This is Oxford stone by farrow and ball. If you were doing the windows and front door then maybe an old white with door and windows in french grey...See Moreneed help with window dressings for unusual window
Comments (11)I have to agree that glass film is brilliant- we used Purlfrost online. You can either pre measure and they will cut for you you or you can buy a piece and cut to your own specs. It arrives rolled in a tube. We've done two rooms- the living room with full frost and the other, a bedroom- with just the bottom half of the window covered which looks pretty modern and sharp. It was supposed to be a temporary solution till we got shutters organised but it looks so effective and fresh that we've decided to save the small fortune that shutters cost! The help line was great- they recommended leaving a gap around the edge near the frame for a beveled glass effect which did actually work! You can get different levels of opaqueness - we used the less opaque for more light but still private- or patterns or stained glass effect. Its really easy to apply yourself too, and apparently comes off with no damage to the glass at all, so good if. Works out really economical as well. Can you tell I'd recommend it?! :)...See MoreNeed help choosing the colour of my hardwood floor
Comments (3)Matt finish walnut will show pretty much everything...the yellow 'doodle hair will show everytime it lands. The good news is everything is so dark you will only see half of the dog hair. A ligher floor in a dark home will have the same effect as a dark floor in a well lit home. You might want to look at a floor that is stained (like white or European Oak) with a mid-tone brown (2 steps lighter than walnut) and you will have your crisp definition between wood and wall AND you will have a floor that is more forgiving with 'doodle curls. And be aware that many people find a matt finishe VERY hard to live with. It shows every hand print, paw print, nose print, "skin" print you can imagine. Skin oils are SHINIER than a matt finish = shows up every time a finger, toe, foot, dog pad hits the floor. Everytime. A satin is easier to live with....See More- PRO

Hey, I've done a really rough mock-up for you in cream. It does look good, I'll admit, it will brighten it up but it depends on whether you really want your windows and doors to stand out?

5 years agoI think cream or white is a little bright with the brick. Maybe a deep cream / pale sand would work. You'll have to have your fascias, gutters and down pipes sprayed / colour bonded as you can only buy them in white, brown and black. I think it's a good strong building and it can take black gutters and pipes, I'm not sure i would paint them the same colour as the windows.
I think i'd also consider a sage / grey green
I think that colour works with your brickwork

4 years agoWe've finally made a move forward and have gone with a flush Casement Window. (anglian)
Still undecided on colour and are looking at Agate Grey or cream (the anglian cream is quite dark yellow) for the windows
Looking at making the door more central with a glass panel down either side. (solid composite door) sage green in colour.

4 years agoIt’s so hard choosing frame colours...I was looking at Agate Grey yesterday actually & am waiting for a sample. It’s funny how light can affect the colour so it will be good to have the sample to see it in the ‘flesh’ & compare against our brick. Good luck!
