We recently decided to do some exterior renovation on our house and installed a red entrance door with white side lights. unfortunately the red bricks do not match the red door and we would like to replaster the house and paint it instead of the pebble dash we have at present. This may turn out too costly, so we are at a loss as to what to do. We would like to get suggestions on colors if we decide to go ahead with the plastering, regarding walls, trims (we plan on having) or, should we have to keep the pebble dash, how can we best disguise the red brick, at least on the porch. We also would appreciate any ideas regarding the front entrance steps (materials, color).
Any suggestions will be gratefully accepted.

Need help with redesigning front of house
Comments (10)Thanks for the feedback, we had something similar in mind. Would you suggest bringing the door out to the front? What about the windows either side, we would think about replacing maybe in a different colour, possibly grey, and add some cedar cladding to the house front and paint walls grey. We are also toying with the idea of bring double doors out to the front with arclight over head and then to add coving around the windows with arc that mirrors the arc light to try and soften the whole angular look to to the front. All suggestions welcome. Thanks Brian...See MorePaint colour help needed - please!!

Comments (2)I would use some tall grasses. The roots would keep that soil stitched together well. They have little maintenance and look fantastic in the light and breeze....See MoreNorthfacing red brick needs curb appeal suggestions truly welcome
Comments (8)Your house is very attractive but a little TLC is required. If possible depending on budget limitations, I would do the following to soften the edges and add a manicured, polished yet homely feeling to the house: Area needing attention: Front door and surrounds Issue: Lack of a focal point, has no presence and appears to recess into the house • Remove all potted plants from outside the front door • Remove the seat from under the main window • Rent/borrow a water power washer to clear away the moss/weeds • Paint the front door (if wood) a dolphin grey colour and add a door wreath (radiates warmth) • Purchase 2 potted Bay trees (Laurus Nobilis) to be placed either side of the newly painted front door to frame the doorway • Put up a postbox on the wall to the right of the front door • Add 2 external candle lanterns to enhance the ambience for house viewings...See Morehelen m.
