Home Exterior Painting in Dark Colors

Posted on May 8, 2023 by Scott Bardash

Painting has always been a great way to make a big change to your home while saving money over replacing materials. It’s a chance to customize your home and make it a reflection of your personality! Our professional painters know the secrets to achieving beautiful painting results. Something we have been seeing more is using dark exterior paint colors, and we’ve created some dramatic transformations!

We encourage our customers to follow their hearts when choosing an exterior paint color. While we can match the current color of your home, it’s a good time to consider making a change. Choosing colors can be overwhelming, so we are happy to offer a complimentary color consultation to many of our customers!

We’ll send a professional designer and color expert to your home to understand your goals, see your home, and help suggest and guide you to the right colors to achieve the results you’re dreaming about.

Take a look at some recent Guy Painting transformations using dark colors for exterior painting:

Grizzle Gray and Iron Ore

Dark gray siding with black trim makes this North Indianapolis home stand out! In addition to replacing rotten wood, our carpenters removed some decorative trim to keep things clean and simple. You can follow the process from wood trim replacement, cleaning and prep work like covering anything we aren’t painting, and then finally the actual painting. As always, the prep work makes all the difference in a painting project!

The homeowner kept the black Iron Ore trim to just the roofline, giving a dark gray monotone look to most of the home using Sherwin Williams Grizzle Gray. Gorgeous midcentury accents add a finishing touch to this dramatic look.

We love a job well done, and there’s a reason we have the best painter reviews in Indianapolis! As a local, family-owned painting company, our management team works to ensure every project deserves a five-star painter review and a “Straight A” grade card.

Monotone Black Modern

For a more contemporary look, many of our dark exterior color schemes go monotone. That means the trim, siding, and everything on the house is just one color. These Westfield homeowners wanted to make a statement, and they did that going with Sherwin Williams Tricorn Black.

The transformation is dramatic, and our team will be watching over your project from start to finish.

Though an all-black house sounds like it could look dark and foreboding, this home still feels exciting and full of life! Black paint makes other colors come to life, and the stone accents and landscaping pop against the dark home.

Stately and contemporary, this home had no problem selling quickly and for full asking price when the homeowners decided to sell.

Your company is amazing. At closing today on our home, we told the new buyers and both agents how amazing you were. They all took down your information too! 😊 God Bless you all!

Black Magic for a Modern Craftsman

Sometimes you find the perfect house for your family… but the color scheme feels bland and doesn’t match your personality. This Fishers/Fortville/Geist family knew exactly what they wanted to do to fix that! With photo inspiration, they met with our Designer and Color Expert to select just the right colors to transform their home.

They went with a unique palette using Sherwin Williams colors:

Black Magic for the body
Rookwood Dark Brown for the trim
Copper Pot accent colors

The homeowner worked with the HOA and won them over by showing examples of similar color schemes on other homes. In the end, the results speak for themselves! Black Magic is just a bit warmer than Tricorn Black, perfect for this family. When combined with the brown trim, copper accents, and red brick, this home feels warm and welcoming.

What’s the next step?

You may be wondering if a dark or bold color will look good on your home and in your neighborhood. Many of our customers across Indianapolis have older homes in established neighborhoods, and are concerned about making sure their homes still fit in their neighborhoods. Even in Carmel and Fishers neighborhoods with strict HOAs, dark exterior paint colors have been approved and the results are stunning!

Experienced painters and carpenters, professional quality managers, and a management team focused on creating an exceptional painting experience. The Guy Painting difference is noticeable and reflected in our work and painter reviews. Reach out and discover why we are commonly rated as the best painter in the Indianapolis area!

Brick Painting Makeover

Posted on April 26, 2023 by Scott Bardash

The homeowners of this Carmel home called us to get a quote for painting the exterior of their house for a modern update. They wanted a full makeover, and for that they were going to need to paint the brick! We were happy to come by and give them a free quote for exterior siding and brick painting.

The first thing we always want to do is understand your goals for your painting project. We walked around with the homeowner to review the entire house and put together a quote for everything. They had some wood rot, so we pointed that out and included wood replacement in their detailed quote for painting. This family also wanted some interior painting completed, so we put together a full proposal based on their painting goals.

Color Selection

When painting, color selection can be an overwhelming decision.

How do I choose the best color for my house?
How do I pick the best shade of white for my home?
Should I paint my brick the same color as my siding?

Luckily, we’ve got you covered! Like many of our customers, this homeowner received a complimentary color consultation. We sent a professional designer and color expert to their house to help them pick out just the right colors to achieve the look of their dreams!

The homeowner’s knew they wanted to brighten and modernize the home. They definitely wanted to get rid of the green, and they wanted to paint the brick. We helped them with choosing paint colors for their home!

With our designer’s help, the homeowners chose Sherwin Williams colors for their project:

Brick Painting

When it comes to painting brick, the process, products, and experienced painters are all crucial pieces to achieving a finish that will last for years. We clean the brick to remove any surface debris that could prevent adhesion, and we use tape, paper, and cloths to protect any surfaces that we won’t be painting. Next, we apply a high-quality masonry primer. This primer will seal the brick to help prevent deterioration, block the color of the bricks from showing through, and provide the base layer for paint to stick to.

After that, we will paint with a high-quality exterior paint. Different homes and colors have different needs, and our experienced team of painters and managers will make sure that your home has the perfect products for your situation. Most of our projects use Sherwin-Williams paints and products, but we also use PPG/Porter Paints and Benjamin Moore products when appropriate. Your quote will show what products we will use to create your dream home look!

The Result

Our favorite things to see: a beautifully painted home, and another straight-A grade card!

Every customer gets a grade card at the end of every project, it’s the chance to let us know how everything went. We LOVE seeing how happy our homeowners are! Our painters, carpenters, and managers all pride ourselves on creating beautiful homes for all of our customers!

A New Look for a Kitchen

Posted on June 28, 2022 by Scott Bardash

Kitchen Cabinet Updates with Paint!

Like so many Indianapolis area homeowners, this Westfield family was looking for an update to their dated wood kitchen cabinets. They were not new to Guy Painting, they had recently moved into a new house and had already had us out to paint most of the interior of their home and were getting ready for us to come back to paint a few more rooms! Since they loved working with Guy Painting, they decided to get a free quote to paint their kitchen cabinets, too. We’ve been painting a lot of kitchen cabinets recently!

They had a great kitchen layout and the cabinets were in good condition, so it did not make sense to replace the cabinets. Luckily, painting kitchen cabinets is a cost-effective way to get that updated look for less money than replacing the cabinets! They met with Sean, to go over options and pricing to paint kitchen cabinets. Sean got some measurements and gave them a quote on the spot so they could make a decision on what they wanted to do for the home. Since they were familiar with us, they signed up on the spot to get their kitchen cabinets painted!

The process for painting kitchen cabinets takes a few days, and as with all painting projects, prep work is so important! Our professional painters take care the protect everything in the kitchen. We put down coverings on the floor and we tape off everything that won’t be painted with plastic. We remove doors and drawers and set up a separate area to spray those items. For cabinetry, we spray everything including the cabinets themselves in order to leave a smooth finish free of brush or roll marks.

In this kitchen, the customer wanted a different color on the island. For this, we end up covering the rest of the cabinets and spraying the island first, and then covering the island and spraying the rest of the kitchen.

Origami White

Taupe Tone

We love the way the white cabinets pop against the slate blue walls. It’s a beautiful look and the homeowners love it! When asked how the process went, they said:

It went very well & only 3 days from start to finish.

All painters were efficient, friendly, and did a great job!

A Modern Update

Posted on May 31, 2022 by Scott Bardash

A modern update for this Geist home!

The homeowners of this Indianapolis home called us to get a quote for painting the exterior of their house for a modern update. They had recently purchased the home and had a lot of work to do to make it their own. We were happy to come by and give them a free quote for exterior painting and wood repair!

This house had a lot of wood damage, so the first thing we do is go over everything we are suggesting in detail. We walked around with the homeowner and pointed out areas of wood rot, and how we fix wood rot and then paint it so that it looks original to the house. Like most houses of this age, we needed to replace wood rot on the windows, soffits, trim pieces, doors, fascia, and wood siding.

Wood Repair

The first step of painting and repair is having our carpentry team come to take care of the wood replacement. We were able to start that in early spring, that way painting could start as soon as possible. Our carpenters found a few additional pieces of wood to repair, and the homeowners were happy that our team could take care of it immediately. We are happy to have some of the best carpenters in the Indianapolis area for our carpentry projects. Our homeowners love when their homes look as good (or better!) than when they were first built!

Painting

Next we had one of our professional painting teams come to prepare the house for painting. Everything that we are not painting gets covered or protected to keep your home spotless. We started painting everything at this house in Sherwin Williams SW 7008 Alabaster, a popular warm white.

After that, the homeowner decided to take a bold step and paint the windows black, a popular modern painting update. They chose Sherwin Williams SW 7069 Iron Ore for this. Our team protected all of the newly painted white trim and did a phenomenal job creating this modern look.

Black windows are increasingly popular, and luckily that would work for this homeowner. We don’t always recommend black windows for every house and every window, but talk to us and we can go over options for your house!

The customer loves this house as much as we do, and we’re happy they loved our crew:

“Wonderful! Great customer service, good cleanup.”
