Brick Painting Prowess

When homeowners in Riverton wanted to make their brick home stand out with a more modern feel and a monochrome color scheme they called the pros at CertaPro of Salt Lake City.

With today’s modern elastomeric paints, painting over brick is no longer a challenge and it has given brick homeowners color options far away from the traditional maroon look of standard brick.

The first step in this transformation began with a thorough pressure washing. The homeowners also used the opportunity to remove some plants that were becoming overgrown next to the house. The CertaPro painters then got to work taking the home from brown to a modern white.

After a complete exterior repainting the house is now the show-stopper in the neighborhood and sports a unique look and a level of curb appeal it never had before.

Before the painting started…

The house had a brown brick finish with slight variations in the brick but the overall appearance was dark with a faded garage door and a brown roof that gave the home virtually no contrast or focal point.

A bit bland and faded

A jumble of brownish earth tones and a visibly faded garage door signaled the need for a makeover.

No contrast and no detail

The brick merged into the eaves which merged into the roof, even the front door lacked any pop of color.

After Painting Over the Existing Brick…

The house looks transformed with a high contrast appearance provided by white brick against black eaves, trim, garage door, and roof shingles. The white dramatically brightens the home without losing the brick “feel” provided by the different courses and mortar joints that create subtle shadows on the surface.
