Browse Forums Finishing Touch 1 Oct 14, 2010 2:07 pm I need some help picking exterior colours for our house. 1. Fascia, gutter, eaves & downpipes 2. Render colour We are currently renovating and are about to submit plans to council to change the front entrance of our house. It was built sometime in the 60's so it needs a fair bit of work. We are replacing all windows with white aluminum commercial windows (so the frame will still be nice and chunky like the existing white timber windows). We are looking at having a nice timber entrance door with a single sidelight panel and a merbau deck out the front to replace the existing small porch area. Any suggestions would be more than welcome!! I wanted to upload a pic of our house but as a first time user I'm not sure how to??

This will be stage one of our extension/reno plans... we are looking at adding on out the back a bit later. The roof colour is currently dark grey / brown. Yes, definitely needs work on the garden / landscaping. Not sure where to start! It will be a big job. Thanks for the advise, will start looking at render colours first then match the gutters to suit. Any suggestions on colours to look at? We were thinking a nice beige colour (not to pink and not to yellow) but up for suggestions...
