My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Need color scheme ideas

12 years ago
I am repainting the eaves/facia shutters and front door. I need help matching up colors to my bricks.

    Perhaps just a neutral cream color instead of trying to match the bricks.

    I was also thinking cream facia/eaves with very dark brown shutters.

    If you go light grey trim such as Warm Stone Sherwin-Williams, classic black shutters, then you could have fun with the door color.

    Re: Dytecture's advice should I do all (shutters, doors and facia) all cream color? I was looking at Whispering Wheat (Glidden)
