I've been looking at high end roofing tile websites and one of them has a color expert that made recommendations for house paint colors with their orange/brown roof tiles. Here is a link to some of the schemes they recommend that may give you some inspiration: https://www.davinciroofscapes.com/blog/exterior-color-schemes-autumn/ You can color match to Sherwin Williams brand paint.

Hi! Looking for suggestions for new paint color for siding, garage doors, shutters and front door. Would like to do something darker.

It would be more typically limestone and NOT concrete. You have to be very careful not to ruin it. No sandblasting. https://artradarjournal.com/2022/02/15/how-to-clean-paint-from-limestone-rock/ https://www.chicagobungalow.org/post/2019/10/16/removing-paint-from-vintage-masonry How to Remove Paint from Your Limestone or Vintage Brick Do: Use the gentlest means possible when removing paint. Use a natural bristle brush (never wire!) to apply chemicals. Conduct a sample test of a proposed cleaning method in an inconspicuous location on the building first. Use an alkaline paint remover. Examples are ammonia, potassium hydroxide, or trisodium phosphate. Organic solvent paint remover can also be used (methylene chloride). A few product suggestions: Cathedral Stone Stripper (works best in weather over 60° F) (also available at Henry Frerk Sons) ProSoCo Heavy Duty Stripper (also available at Henry Frerk Sons) Peel Away 1 Heavy Duty Paint Remover(also available at select Sherwin Williams) Let the chemical rest on the surface for the time recommended by the product manufacturer. Do a thorough, low pressure, water wash of the stone when it is time to remove the chemical treatment (see product manufacturer specifications). Take appropriate precautions to ensure that you are using the product safely. Both acidic and alkaline cleaners can be dangerous to those using them, and there are additional environmental concerns associated with the use of chemical cleaners. Be sure to follow directions and dispose of chemicals responsibly. Do NOT: Sandblast! This is extremely harmful to the stone and while it will remove paint quickly, it will also remove some of the stone itself and leave it much more susceptible to future erosion. Use metal brushes as they can damage the surface of the stone and cause it to be more vulnerable to deterioration. Use acidic cleaners—they will deteriorate the limestone, which is an acid-sensitive stone. Do any chemical cleaning or saturating of brick or limestone in the colder months. Cleaning should never be done below 40° F, and generally not below 50° F. Most chemical cleaning processes force water into the walls, which can freeze in colder temperatures causing permanent damage to brick and stone. Use any masonry (brick or limestone) sealers. They are rarely necessary for historic buildings and may cause permanent damage and discoloration of your stone.

I would like to repaint the house to get rid of yellow and reduce the number of paint colors - thinking of the body as Ben Moore kendall charcoal or current dark blue color with warm off white for all the trim and garage door. Because we face South - the dark garage door has been an issue bc the added heat from the dark color tends to make the wood warp so trying to get to a lighter color. Issue: the balusters are metal and handrail are a composite material that were selected in a brown tone to match the current trim color. If I do dark body with white trim - will it look really weird with the dark railing and ballisters? I could possibly have it all repainted off white but feel the paint will not adhere well to the composite material and the metal ballisters. Need advice please.
