Interior Paint Colors for Your Style – Shades of White

Posted on by

We hear it all the time: “My home is so boring – the walls are all the same color!”  – or –  “I recently bought a home and I can’t stand the colors! I just want bright white walls everywhere!”  There’s no one right way to paint a home, and our professional interior painters at Guy Painting turn your house into your dream home – by painting with colors that match YOUR style and personality!

In this series, we are looking at some of the color choices our customers have made to personalize their homes!

 

 

There are a few decisions to make when you’re thinking about painting inside your home. Of course, you need to find the best painter near you. Luckily, you know a Guy, so you’ve already found the best interior painter in Indianapolis! The next step is to decide on a color… but how do you find an interior paint color that matches your style and personality?

The good news is that you’re not on your own. Guy Painting offers color help through our team of painting experts. We have decades of experience painting homes, we have seen many colors in action and can help you with how to choose paint colors for your space. For many of our painting projects we are even able to offer a complimentary color consultation with an interior designer who specializes in color choice!

 

Choosing a white paint color

If you want a bright space that feels modern and full of light, you can’t beat the simple elegance of white!

How do you pick a white interior paint color for your home? There are so many options! Just looking through Sherwin Williams white paint colors online can be overwhelming.

A few tips for choosing a white paint color:

  • Watch for undertones that match your home. Is your flooring a warm tone or a cool tone? What about your cabinets and countertops?
  • Check the LRV (Light Reflective Value) of white paints. The higher this is, the brighter your room will be. As the number gets lower, the white will also have more undertones.
  • Are you keeping the walls and trim the same shade? Using a more off-white with bright white trim is an option if you feel all white is too stark.
  • If you are painting over darker walls, make sure you are using a primer. We typically use an oil based primer to ensure coverage. The last thing you want on a white wall is to see the previous color streaking through.

Take a look at some of our recent interior painting projects for color inspiration!

 

Fishers basement gets bright update

The reality is that basements can feel dark no matter what. Even with these great doors and windows letting in light, this Fishers family knew their basement could be even better! The solution here was bright white, and they chose Sherwin-Williams SW 7004 Snowbound.

 

Snowbound was the Sherwin Williams Color of the Month for September 2022, and we expect to see it growing in popularity for homes like this.

 

 

Indianapolis home goes modern with white paint

These homeowners in the Geist area knew they wanted to update their home with something that would feel modern and bright. When choosing a shade of white, she knew she wanted the brightest possible option. For that, the clear choice is Sherwin Williams Extra White. This is the purest white and the lack of any undertones means it works with just about any colors you want to use in your home decorating!

You may be wondering how to brighten a dark room, and this is a great example of the difference that paint makes! The color before was a neutral beige/tan, and it was not that dark. But painting with white makes it look significantly brighter!

As the first thing your guests see when they come into your home, your foyer should set the tone for the rest of the house. Some people feel white can feel stark and cold, but paired with the warm wood stairs and floors, it looks modern and welcoming in this home!

Painting Brick to Update Exterior

Posted on by


 

When these Indianapolis homeowners started thinking about painting their house, they knew they wanted to make a big update. It’s a beautiful home but the brick was starting to look a little outdated, so they decided to go all in: they painted the brick!

A lot of people are considering painting their brick to update their homes. It’s a quick way to completely change the look of a house, and you can change your home into any color you would like. The process for painting brick is more involved than with just painting wood or siding, so it’s important to bring in a professional who knows how to paint brick correctly.

The Process

When making this kind of investment in your home, it’s important to be sure you have the color that you want! Our team has experience with colors and we sent our PPG Paint specialist to the house to make sure we had an exact match. He was also able to create a custom match for the black contrasting color used on the garage doors and gutters. For the brick, siding, and trim, the homeowners chose PPG 1008-1 Focus. This is a warm neutral white color that feels classic, and the perfect choice for their home!

As with many of our painting projects, the first step is to take care of any wood replacement needed. A painted finish can only be as good as the material that it’s on! Luckily our carpenters can take care of most wood issues that we come across. In this case, our carpenters replaced some wood trim, gutter boards, and siding.

 

 

As a service, we are also able to offer new gutters and downspouts. The perfect time to replace those is during a painting project, and we can make it easier by handling all of that for you. Since we were doing such a big overhaul on this home’s exterior, the homeowner’s thought it would be ideal to take care of both projects at once. They chose gutters with gutter covers to reduce future maintenance. In addition, they chose to have their gutters and downspouts painted a contrasting dark color in order to stand out.

 

 

Once painting started, our Quality Managers were on site to check the progress and quality of this project every day. We take care of the details so the homeowner can just relax and know that the job is being completed with care. Our results and reviews speak for themselves!

The Finished Product

The end result of this project is stunning. The house feels contemporary while still timeless, welcoming and warm. We want to spend a quiet afternoon on the porch of this house – but we are on to the next home!

 

 

If you’re thinking about your next painting project, give us a call and let us help you create an incredible home that you’re sure to love.

Now you know a Guy!

 

 

 

 

A Modern Update

Posted on by

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.”

Geist Home gets a Fresh, Natural Color Change

Posted on by

This Geist homeowner reached out to us after looking for professional painters in Indianapolis and seeing our many great reviews on Angie’s List to get a painting quote this past spring.

Sean went out to do a free estimate, and gave them information on our painting process and what to expect when having your house painted. He took a look at the current state of the wood siding and trim on the side of their house, and gave them information on what needed to be replaced. Luckily, our carpenters could take care of all the wood repair needed on the home! Like most homes of this age, that included wood window repair, wood door frame repair, wood trim replacement, and some siding replacement, too. We detail all of that in your quote so that you know what we are suggesting to update.

It’s so common to see this kind of color scheme in these neighborhoods in Geist. The homes were all built in the mid 1980’s and the colors are ready for some updating. Like everyone, this customer was asking “What color should I paint my home?” and we happen to have the secret: working with professional color consultant! We offer this color selection service for FREE with many of our interior and exterior painting projects and we think it’s a great way to figure out what color to paint your house, especially if you are overwhelmed with the dated colors and can’t even decide where to start! Sometimes, customers want to go with something modern, but often it’s just a matter of taking a more modernized color approach to their individual home.

This customer had their free meeting with Rachel, our professional color consultant, and decided on a beautiful and natural color scheme including PPG Porter Paints Ashen 1023-3, Off White 1024-1, Thyme Green 1128-6, and Granite 1022-6.

 

The first step on this project was carpentry, so our carpenters went out to get started on the wood replacement. They always conduct a thorough walkthrough of the home to check all the wood and found a few more pieces of siding that needed to be replaced, and they took care of it on the spot.

One of the biggest parts of painting is preparing the house to be painted! Our painters take great care to power wash the house to prepare the surfaces for paint. They we take care to tape off areas, protect windows, and section out how they will paint your house. The painting portion was led by one of our professional painters, Leobardo, and his team.

The results are stunning, and the fresh color scheme made such a stunning update to this home that will last for years. The homeowners gave us straight A’s on their grade card and said the process went very well, and we are happy to see another beautiful house completed by our Indianapolis painting team!

If you love this look but don’t know where to start – just give us a call! We’d be happy to talk about your project and get you a free estimate to make your house your dream home!

Painting with Guy Painting makes the difference!

This is the Diehr family story and experience – but it can be yours to…   Call Us  317-708-1200

Providing a Painting Quote

We provided a quote to the Diehr family in May of 2019, they signed up with us in January of 2020. We began working on the right color for their house.

“Honestly, not a thing I would change about the process. The quote was given last year, and we decided to act on it this year.” –Kim 

Paint Color Choices

With the arrival of early spring weather in March, we put up paint color samples. After further discussion they chose to have the gutters painted as well. During our discussions we landed on a color change with a two-tone look using both blue and tan.

Trim and doors- SW 9171 Felted wool

Siding- SW 0048 Bunglehouse Blue

Prep Work

We sent out the carpenters first to replace a rotten board on the porch, then we power washed the house.  After we gave it time to dry, we began to professionally prep and then allied the top of the line paint with there new colors.  – WOW what a difference!

Wrap Up

After we finished the house-painting project, we did a thorough walk through with the customer and they filled out the grade card.

How Were The Carpenters And Quality?

A week later we did a follow-up QC inspection, now that it was all dry we wanted to make sure there were not additional touch ups.  We found a few and took care of them.

“When they checked completed work, he saw things I didn’t see. I’m not a professional, but he knew what to look for and pointed out things I didn’t see.”  –Kim 

How Were The Painters And Quality?

The customer was very please with the process, said the guys were detailed and did a great job.

“Both paint and carpenter teams were impressive. Prep work was very impressive, very clean, didn’t leave a mess. Always cleaned up. Attention to detail was quite awesome. The quality was impressive.” –Kim 

“Neighbors have already got a quote because they were impressed with work and attention to detail, they saw at our house, and I have already recommended you to some friends looking to get their house painted. Your teams were excellent, and I will highly recommend to anyone.”

Kim reiterated…
