This stucco house painting project in Longmont, CO, focused on updating the exterior while adding contrast and cleaning up problem areas around the home.

The main improvement came from repainting the stucco trim using Sherwin-Williams Duration in Urbane Bronze. This darker accent color helped break up the flat look of the home and highlight architectural details that were not visible before. The pergola was also refinished using Sherwin-Williams Woodscapes Solid in the same color to tie everything together.

Along with painting, we repaired damaged garage trim, patched stucco holes, and sealed areas where bats had been roosting. The full exterior painting project took one week and brought a more defined and updated look to the home.

Background / Story:

Joey and Lauren had just moved into their new home and knew right away it needed some attention. The house had good structure and design, but everything blended together in one faded tone. It lacked depth, and many of the design features were hard to notice from the street. After working with them on a previous project, they reached out again looking for help on how to improve the exterior.

During the walkthrough, the idea came up to use a darker trim color to create contrast. At first, they were unsure about going with something bold like Urbane Bronze. Lauren spent time researching and even mocked up ideas to see how it would look.

Once they committed, the direction became clear. The goal was not just to repaint the home, but to bring out the details that were already there.

The pergola matches the new trim, which brings consistency across the entire exterior. The repairs also solved underlying issues, so the home not only looks better but feels more complete overall.
