Brick House Painting in Weston

A couple in the Weston neighbourhood of Toronto recently contacted CertaPro Painters of Etobicoke to update and bring some colour harmony to their detached brick home.

The lower front of the home had previously been painted a medium brown, but the right side and rear of the home remained the original dark brown brick, which was showing its age and had areas of inconsistent mortar colour. Additionally, the foundation area was an off-white stucco, which was unevenly surfaced and tended to take on a dirty appearance.

After admiring their neighbour’s painted brick home, the owners settled on that approach to improve the look of theirs, and engaged CertaPro to paint the brick and foundation in Sherwin-Williams SW 9088 ‘Utaupeia’, a contemporary shade of taupe which paired perfectly with the existing siding, shingles, and front railing on the home.

CertaPro Painters power washed all surfaces thoroughly, then after allowing for drying applied a coat of Loxon masonry primer to enhance paint adhesion and provide a more uniform surface finish. The final step was the application of a single coat of the Utaupeia paint, which was deemed to provide sufficient aesthetic coverage by the couple after reviewing the work in progress.

The owners are now on the receiving end of compliments from that same neighbour, who has mentioned to them several times “how much he likes the new look of our home”.
