BEFORE & AFTER: 80's Red brick exterior makeover -NO RENDER!

Thought I'd share what we did over the last couple of months to update our 1980's red brick house....I've learned rendering isn't always necessary (though we may get there eventually).... red brick CAN look good when combined with the right colours!

Well done!!! turned out great. Was it difficult to change the garage door configuration?

Thanks for the feedback..... Garage door configuration wasn't too tricky - was dictated by how much 'clearance' was needed around the edges of the doors openings to accomodate the tracks, otherwise we just made them as wide and tall as we could! (Builders who did the work were great, obviously do a lot of 'de-arching' of garage doors 'cause they went so fast and looked like they could have done it with their eyes shut!
