Exterior Colour Advice
Good evening all,
I'm finally getting windows installed this week on my new build and need to to choose an exterior colour for the house. The windows will also be a charcoal colour similar to the roof. I would greatly appreciate some colour advice.

Comments (5)Hi Becky I'm not sure what style you are looking for but try www.solidor.co.uk These are the best low maintenance front doors you can get with lots of options on colours, inside and out. We are one of their installers in Colchester and have four on display, if we are near enough pop in, if not just find a local installer. if you are after timber we supply Bereco, again go to their website, not cheap but beautiful. We also can supply Grey windows, not in 50 shades, but in 3, so you can have from light to dark. Anything else just ask. Regards Joe...See MoreAdvice on House Exterior
Comments (4)Hi, I think that you could give this house a smart contemporary look with the grey windows that you suggested. I would break each window up into two or three panels though, this would give each panel a more elegant vertical emphasis. A timber front door is always nice though, the image above shows one of our houses with a similar hip-roofed style and grey frames (the windows here are openable too). It is good to match the window frame colour to the gutters and/or eaves fascia & soffit. In this house we had an iroko timber door and eaves which brings a warm high quality feel to the house. Best of luck!...See MoreAdvice on new window colours
Comments (2)I'm doing something very similar at the moment and I decided to go for a cold ivory colour with the windows divided into same size panels and a grey front door. The frames also have a foil finish that gives them a faux wood texture. I decided against the grey frames, as much as I love them, as I think they will probably date in the same way the pale green ones I see around have too....See More

2 years agoThe building has a rather robust architecture, so it seems to me that dark tones will combine it into one conceptual form. As well as greens - plants and shrubs will definitely look brighter on a dark background. Natural or red stained wood details, such as a terrace or canopy, can be used as a refreshing effect. Such a solution will be very conceptual and will look professional and thoughtful.

2 years agoFinally got the windows installed so I'm now ready to start painting and tiling. My wife likes these travertine porcelain tiles and the Natural Stone paint colour (third from the bottom). Do you think this will go well with the charcoal roof? I'm also in two minds as whether I should use the same tile throughout. I would love to hear you thoughts.
