Need suggestions for exterior paint color

13 years ago

Our house is just over a year old and the exterior paint is starting to peel off in certain areas. Not sure if it would be best to try to match or change the color (some shade of gray perhaps ?). Any suggestions are welcome and greatly appreciated :)

Do you have a warranty on the house? Paint should not be coming off in a year if it was properly done. Is there a moisture problem that is causing the paint to peel? Or was is poor workmanship? Cure house BTW.

Yes, the house is still under warranty but I don't think that they cover such things after a year. Though it might be worth it to double check, Ty
