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.

exterior paint color advice

11 years ago

we just purchased our first home and are trying to determine what color to paint the exterior. we love white, but i was told that white doesn't always look good on stucco. any thoughts/suggestions on paint color or other ways to improve curb appeal would be welcome.

thanks!!

    White looks great on stucco, think Spain. If you love white as you say you do, go for white! Bright white! Especially if you live in a hot climate.
