Best Colors for Exterior Brick Painting

Posted on October 23, 2019

You have a brick home, but the red or grey doesn’t impress you anymore. You want something different. Something that is bold and beautiful! We get it. That’s why we offer brick painting services in Nashville.

One of the most asked questions we receive from customers is what color would be best for their brick exterior. We know this is a huge decision and one that shouldn’t be made on a whim. After all, it’s going to totally change the color of the home you’ve probably seen almost every day for the last few years.

The following are some of the colors we’ve found to look the best on homes with brick exteriors.

Brick Paint Color Option #1: White

White is the most common brick paint color requested. It’s perfect for people who want to have a house that looks crisp and clean. It’s also a great way to hide brick if that’s something you’re interested in doing because from afar, most people can’t tell that it’s a brick house. With our brick painting services, we offer color consultation. We’ll bring a few different shades of white for you to choose from, so you can select the one you like the best.

Brick Paint Color Option #2: Cream

If white is too bright for you, cream may be a better option. It’s soft and neutral, allowing you to pick an accent that can really make the house pop when people drive by it. Cream color options range from very light to a darker cream, so ask us to show you different shades during your free estimate with us.

Brick Paint Color Option #3: Blue

Light or medium blue looks beautiful on brick, like the color on this Victorian-style home. As you can see the accent on the home also makes a difference when it comes to enhancing its curb appeal.

Brick Paint Color Option #4: Grey

Grey is another popular color for brick painting in Nashville. Usually, it’s a medium grey that people choose because it hides imperfections of the brick. It also goes well with dark or bold accents, such as red or white.
