BLOG Breathing New Life into Your Exteriors: Golden Standard's Guide to Modern Facade Makeovers May 03, 2025

Transforming the exterior of your home can be a thrilling yet daunting task. With Golden Standard Painting & Drywall, embarking on a modern facade makeover has never been easier. Whether your aim is to increase curb appeal or simply freshen up the look of your home, understanding the ins and outs of exterior painting is vital. Let’s explore how you can revitalize your home’s exterior with our expert tips.

Begin your journey by assessing the current state of your home’s facade. This may involve examining the quality of the paint, the state of the walls, and noting any damage. An honest assessment will help you understand the level of work needed. At Golden Standard Painting & Drywall, we recommend consulting with professionals to get an accurate evaluation of the job scope, ensuring nothing gets overlooked.

Color choice is perhaps the most exciting part of any facade makeover. Colors set the tone and personality of your home; they are what makes a home truly yours. Consider your home’s architectural style, the colors of neighboring houses, and your personal aesthetic when making your selection. Remember, lighter hues can make small homes appear larger, while darker tones add a touch of sophistication and make a bold statement. Our color experts at Golden Standard are always ready to offer advice to help you choose a palette that aligns with your vision.

The quality of the paint is as crucial as the color itself. Investing in high-quality, weather-resistant paint is key to ensuring longevity and maintaining that fresh, newly-painted look. Not only does this provide an aesthetically pleasing finish, but it also protects your home against the elements. Our trained professionals help select the best products tailored to withstand your region's specific climate conditions.

Preparation is essential before applying any paint. Start by cleaning the walls to remove dirt and loose paint. This may require pressure washing for particularly dirty or mold-laden surfaces. Repair any cracks or damages to the drywall to ensure a smooth, even surface. Proper preparation practices ensure that the paint adheres well and lasts long, giving your house a stunning finish.

When it comes to application, technique is everything. A high-quality finish that stands out for years to come is achieved through skilled application. At Golden Standard Painting & Drywall, our experts use advanced techniques and tools to deliver a pristine finish, ensuring each coat is applied evenly without any blemishes.

Finally, maintaining your home’s new look is just as vital as applying the paint. Regular inspections, cleaning, and touch-ups can help keep your house looking new for years. We offer maintenance tips and services to assist in prolonging the lifespan of your facade.
