- 4How to pick exterior paint colors that go with brickChoosing exterior paint colors that coordinate with existing brick requires deciding whether to complement the brick or paint over everything else instead. Trying to guess how off-white paint and black trim will look against unpainted brick leads to uncertainty about how to properly match the elements without clashing.
- 3How to choose the right gutter size and mounting typeChoosing the wrong gutter size can lead to constant clogs from nearby trees like maples, while roof-hung systems risk voiding relatively new roof warranties. Meanwhile, mounting options often get complicated when contractors insist on reinforcing old or weak fascia boards.
- 2Do I actually need 5 or 6 inch gutters?First-time homeowners gathering quotes get stuck trying to determine if a two-story, 2200-square-foot house actually requires 6-inch gutters or if 5-inch ones are enough. They also struggle to choose between black and white, leaving them unsure of exactly what to buy.
