Rehab 4470 - Outside Paint Looking Good

Nick the painter started painting this past week and I'm dying to see how it looks.  With me being out of country (day job) and the camera just getting repaired, Jan has not been able to take any pictures (I have the other camera with me overseas).  She did say that the color, which by the way is the same as our house, looks great with the roof shingle color.  I was hoping it would as the roof shingles that are mostly grey do have some brown tones.  Nick will also be addressing some of the repair to the eaves which appear to have dry rot in a few minor places.

Nick does a great job and as any good painter will tell you it's all in the preparation.  Luckily this house is in great shape and there's not near as much foliage around it like our house.  He's got all the caulking completed and has started the seal coat everywhere.  That will be followed by 2 coats of paint.  I'll post some before and after pictures when I get them from Jan.

Followup:  Back in town and well it turned out great as can be seen from the before and after photos.  The brown really brings out the brown in the roof shingles and the black door really sets it off.  You can also see that most of the larger bushes are gone and the front of the house looks alot more open - don't worry landscaping and at least one big palm tree on the way to give it that Florida tropical feel and curb appeal!
