Really like the color scheme

- What colors did you use for the trim and are they Dunn-Edwards also?

    The exterior color is called "Shaggy Barked" by Dunn-Edwards. Unfortunately, we don't remember the color of the trim. But it's likely it's Dunn-Edwards, as well.

    The stone veneer is from Eldorado Stone.

Garage doors

- Are these garage doors real wood or painted overlay doors? Thank you

    If I may humbly advise, never pick a stain color from a picture. It is best to always get a minimum of three stain samples of the same "color" but variant intensities. Bring the samples to the garage area and look at them there. Stain color is always different depending on lighting, permanent location and setting. I would suggest going to a flooring company and picking up some pieces you like then have a stain expert or the garage door manufacturer match that color. We do this all the time with our clients and the outcome is a success.

    Hi this project was a long time ago. All I can inform you is that it was a ledger stone.


    Hope this helps for the time being. Many thanks!

I am wondering if this is a stucco siding or if the gray siding is something else? Thank You!

  • jcfaur
    Is the home color grey or green? I cant tell if my computer monitor is rendering it differently. I googled "Shaggy Barked" and it seems to be more of a greyish color.

    Hi, it could be your monitor. The color is definitely more on the grey side.

Stone Veneer

- Thank you M. Designs Architects for choosing Eldorado Stone. Based on the photos it looks like the stone color could be our Pinetop or our Saratoga Rustic Ledge. Here is a link to both products: http://www.eldoradostone.com/products/stone/western-profiles/rustic-ledge/#/pinetop. We always recommend obtaining a sample from your local distributor to verify color and selection. To find a distributor nearest you click here: http://www.eldoradostone.com/locator/. For any additional questions or assistance please contact us at (800) 925-1491!

Which Eldorado stone is the veneer please?

- We are building soon and have a full wall of stone veneer on the front of the house. We have an Eldorado Stone broshure but are not sure which stone this is. Mountain Ledge Panels, Silverton perhaps?

    Hello Tricia,
    Unfortunately, we don't remember the exact one. I suggest you forward the photo (or even a link to this page) to the customer service department at Eldorado Stone. I'm sure they would be able to advise you.

    You can email them at customerservice@eldoradostone.com

    I have also attached some additional photos that provide a bit more detail.
    Hope that helps.

Can you send me information about the roof?

- We went for a similar stucco color, white windows and an ashy brown trim (called Potting Soil). We can't decide what color roof and style- yours looks to have a little dimension to it, too. It all looks great!

    Our style!

    - Love the colors used here! Some pics look like a "sage" color and others look "grey". What would you describe it as being? We have a ranch style house like this but we have a brown roof. Would the colors here go with a brown roof color? We are considering adding stucco to our home along with adding the stones to parts of the house as well. What are your thoughts? Thank you!

      Stucco

      - Hello! What brand and color stucco was used? I love the paint, but our contractor is telling us to go with colored stucco instead of paint.

          How is water kept out from behind the stone when it runs down the wall

          - I am thinking of adding a similar stacked stone veneer at the bottom 2 feet of my stucco home but need to know how to flash the sill to keep water from getting behind the stone. How did you do it on this home?
