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.

Which grey to repaint my front steps?

9 years ago

We desperately need to repaint our front steps. The color in the photo is probably from when this house was built in 1947! Or at least the 80's when it was last updated. The front door is BM Red Rock and will be repainted in semi-gloss. The trim and soffit will be BM White Dove. The wood paneling on either side of the door is teak. What color to paint the stairs? We plan to rebuild them next summer so this is a quick cosmetic fix in the interim. Do you have a favorite grey? Also, the gables and garage door will be BM Brush Blue.
