Need help with exterior
I need help with the exterior of my home. I’d like to add some color. The house has brown and yellow siding with a rust metal roof. The front porch has 4 chairs with pillows on each (red, orange color scheme) but even when the pillows are out on the chairs, they’re hard to see with the railing. I was thinking of putting 2 large flower pots at the top of the stairs or maybe 3 lanterns of different sizes on the side at the top of the stairs. What do you think? Which colors would you use? Also would like to plant some hydrangea in the beds in front of the house but want colors of house, decor and flowers to go together nicely.

5 years agocute house. can you do a porch swing?
and you porch ceiling would look so pretty in a stained bead board, with white trim boards. Hand some red geraniums,
a combo of the white and red hydrangeas would look stunning!

Comments (18)My spouse has been in insurance for over 13 years and knows the laws and regulations and is licensed in 45 states. But the exterior was up to code other than a panel along the bottom on the side of the driveway and it was that way when we moved in and so we did not change it. in 2017 the 10 month notice was to difficult to have all the work done as we lost my spouses income completely and the medical treatment bill was $500,000.00 and that was top priority to save my spouse's life. So yes the home got put second. Our state told we do not qualify for any assistance as they would take my spouse's prior income into account. I was able to find a family member that is willing to help with the siding, but said we will have to buy the materials and his crew can handle the installation for labor the cost is $5500.00 I am hoping that is not too steep. We will now just have to figure what supplies for the exterior we will want to upgrade the home as if we are going to put money in, we want to make it worth it....See MoreNeed help with Exterior

Comments (11)What a beautiful home! Yes, paint anything that’s currently light tan to match the rest of the home. Even the garage doors. Porch trim and window trim could match the white windows, but maybe in a slightly dulled-down white. You might not want to paint ALL the porch trim white, though. That might be too much. Just paint the same as the house. Your front door could be the same white. I’m not usually a fan of shutters but yours aren’t bad. Their color is ok....See MoreRenee
