Project Overview
Location: Noblesville, IN
Project Type: Exterior Trim & siding. Limewashing stone.
Scope of Work: Exterior
Scope of Work: Full exterior repaint. Lime washing stone.
The Why: Customer wanted to freshen up her house all the way around. With the aging stone around the house as well as the siding. We first tested samples of limewash to the stone to get the preferred shade for the customer. After confirming limestone shade and paint color, we applied a coat of limestone to the stone and 2 coats of paint to the siding and trim.
Unique Challenge: There was a fair amount of cleaning of the stone before the limewash. We also scraped away a lot of old peeling paint from the siding and trim. The amount of work put into the cleaning and prep of the surfaces was high.
Customer Priority: The customer did not want a thick like paint limewash look applied. Nor did she want the aged limewash look. We applied different shades as samples for the customer to choose from. After looking at samples, she was very happy with choosing and faded solid grey throughout.
Products Used: Sherwin Williams, PrimeRx Peel Bonding Primer for the siding. Sherwin-Williams SuperPaint Exterior Latex Acrylic, Satin for the siding finish. Romano-Classico Limewash for the stone.
Colors Used: SW7636 ORIGAMI WHITE, SW7675 SEALSKIN, SW9168 ELEPHANT EAR, Silver Lining Limewash color.
Timeline: 5/1-5/8
Customer Experience: Customer was very pleased throughout the entire process. Our attention to detail and helping her with the limewash and color selections made her very happy and helped make the decisions much easier. She was also very appreciative of the communication throughout the project.
