Foothills Painting completed a full exterior repaint for a 2,500 sq ft home in the Summer Hawk neighborhood of Longmont. The project took two days and included power washing, scraping, priming, caulking, and repainting the full exterior using Sherwin-Williams Duration.

The body color was Read Theatre SW 7584, paired with Rivers Edge SW 7517 for the trim. This exterior painting project delivered a fresh, updated color scheme as well as a stronger, more uniform finish across the siding and trim. While the focus was the exterior, homeowners often pair this type of upgrade with future indoor work like bedroom painting or bathroom painting to continue the improvement inside.

Background / Story:

The homeowner reached out after noticing the paint on the siding and trim starting to fade and peel. The exterior had handled years of sun and weather, and it was time for a noticeable refresh. They wanted a color combination that felt warm, modern, and fitting for their part of Longmont. After reviewing the samples together, Read Theatre and Rivers Edge emerged as the winning mix.

The homeowner appreciated having a team that could work quickly without sacrificing detail. Once the schedule was locked in, we organized the workflow to complete all prep on day one and move into application on day two. By the end of the second day, the exterior had a new look that significantly changed the home’s presence.
