Best Paint Colors for Fences

Posted on June 29, 2019

The American Dream often comes along with visions of a white picket fence. White may seem like the typical color for a fence, it doesn’t have to be the color of your fence. You have many choices when it comes to fence colors. The following are the best fence paint colors to enhance your home’s curb appeal.

Fence Colors for a Beautiful Exterior

At CertaPro Painters®, we take pride in being able to help people come up with a color for their fences. Through all of our experience, we have found that the following colors are the most desired by people in Portland.

Brown

Classic brown for a fence really gives it a facelift. This is especially true if the fence is already brown – stained. If this is the case, you do have the option to either paint the fence a shade of brown or restain it.

In either case, CertaPro Painters® of Portland can help. Our expert fence painters can stain fences as well – just like they stain decks.

Red

Red is a popular color because it’s a common color for front doors. A fence that matches the front door of a home is a great way to keep the exterior colors balanced.

With so many tones of red, many people become overwhelmed by coming up with the shade they want for their fence. The good news is that trying out a couple of swatches on the fence can give you a better idea of what it will look like when it’s painted completely in that color.

Black

Yes, black. This color may seem like it’s just not a good one to use because it’s so dark. However, it’s actually a very attractive color. Just look at all of the black iron fences out there today. Black wood fences are just as nice, as long as they are painted correctly.

Black can be a difficult color to paint because of its darkness. If you choose a professional painter though, the results will be smooth, even, and lovely.

White

We couldn’t help but include this color. White is a classic and yes, it’s one that people request a lot. Even though it is light, white paint on wood can also be difficult to use. This is why it’s important to either get ready to paint many layers of white paint, or hire a painters who knows how to do it well.
