Would appreciate some advice on exterior colours. We have chosen: Externals Roof - Monier Salsa Gutters - Colorbond "Manor Red" Fascia - Colorbond "Sandbank" Bargeboards - Colorbond "Sandbank" Downpipes - "Manor Red" Eaves - Wattyl/Pascol "Brushed Softly" Posts - Wattyl/Pascol "Turkish Bread" Windows - Trend Windows/Sliding Doors in "Stone Beige" Doors - Wattly/Pascol "Turkish Bread" Garage Door - Colorbond "Sandbank" Bricks - Austral Governors Wakehurst Sandstock The Trend Windows and Doors don't come in the same range of colours as the colorbond fascia and garage doors but they are very close. We have already done our colour selection but can change it if we want and were wondering if we should replace the Sandbank & stone beige with classic cream & primrose as it might give more contrast with the darker bricks and red roof. The problem was the colour consultation was very rushed as the girl was leaving the next week and she didn't really offer any opinions on anything, just wrote down what we picked. Now we are having second thoughts. Any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated. Re: Exterior Colour Help Please 2Oct 19, 2008 4:17 pm Hi mrsnrub,
The colours good to me, its pretty hard to say if they are effect. Not sure of the style of your home, and not familiar with your bricks and roof tiles. But as colours go, there’s no reason why this lot should not work.

This is the bricks, roof colour and exterior of the display home. We are getting the same facade. Have decided to change all the sandbank colours to paperpark but leave everythin else the same.

Roof tiles and brick go well together. I think your colours will be fine, I thought the Sandbank would look good with this brick. Best way is to get a sample of the bricks, and paint your colours up on a board….just to make sure.

Fingers crossed it will look OK 😀 2 7569 Thank you @. Tried to play with the facade models but the exact colour is not matching up. 2 3597 |
