This property in Lee had lost much of its charm, with weathered, stained exterior paint giving the house a tired and neglected appearance. Working closely with the homeowner, we developed a new colour scheme designed to restore character while subtly emphasising the building’s architectural details. Careful preparation followed, ensuring every surface was properly cleaned, repaired, and ready for a long-lasting finish.
To frame the house beautifully, the windows and doorway were painted in a crisp, bright white, creating a clean contrast against the softer wall tones. A classic light cream was introduced at the base of the walls, adding a timeless detail inspired by traditional Georgian façades.
For the main exterior, a pale green was selected to give the property a calm, elegant presence and a sense of understated quality. This classic palette was completed with a bold red front door, bringing warmth and personality to the entrance. The front step was finished in a traditional style, with white-edged detailing and a natural central section for a subtle yet polished look.
The transformation resulted in a home that feels fresh and welcoming, while retaining a refined, classic character that suits its surroundings.
Paint used:
- Front wall: Dulux Weathershield – Green Ivy
- Wall trims around windows: Dulux Weathershield – Classic Cream
- Windows: Dulux Gloss – White
- Front door: Dulux Weathershield Satin – Monarch

When it comes to protecting and elevating a property’s appearance, skilled exterior house painters play a crucial role in delivering finishes that stand up to the elements and look exceptional for years to come.
