Paint Color Selection Tips in Montlake, WA

The first step we would recommend homeowners take is to really take in your surroundings. What are the color of your neighbors homes? You do not want to pick a shade too close but you also want to make sure it doesn’t clash either.

Second, pay close attention plants and trees that surround your home. With mild winters and long summer days, Seattle is a pretty good place to garden. Many homeowners have beautiful plants, shrubs and trees growing on their land. Picking a color that highlights the landscaping can really make for a beautiful look.

Third is an important factor that should not be overlooked and that is the “grayness” of the state. Since we have many cloudy days here in Seattle, a gray or white home can appear way duller here than it would elsewhere. Instead, we recommend considering earth tones such as green, brown, gold, and yellow. This allows for contrast in your surroundings and your home will appear to look much more attractive.

Lastly, we suggest paint a small portion of the house and wait at least two days before deciding if you want to paint the whole home that color. This will let you see at different times of the day and help you visualize what the color will look like up against it’s surroundings.
