How We Delivered Fast, Lasting Results

Paints & Products Used

Choosing the right products is crucial for a Maine coastal home, where weather fluctuations can be particularly challenging for exterior finishes.

A premium exterior paint known for its rich color, durability, and resistance to fading and mildew. Ideal for residential exteriors like garages, it provides a smooth, satin finish that stands up to harsh weather.

Designed for optimal performance in high-moisture environments, this flat-finish paint offers strong adhesion and weather protection. It works well on accent surfaces or trim where moisture resistance and a flat aesthetic are important.

When used together, these two Benjamin Moore products create a striking, high-performance finish. Aura Satin delivers a clean and elegant base, while Element Guard enhances durability in targeted areas, resulting in a garage exterior that is both visually balanced and built to endure the elements.

Results

In just one day, we gave this garage a total makeover with a clean white finish and bold Intrigue accents for a modern touch.

The siding got a fresh coat of muted green (Benjamin Moore 1580 Intrigue), which pairs really well with the bright white trim and doors done in Benjamin Moore Aura Exterior Satin.

The final result is a clean, long-lasting finish that not only looks great but adds real curb appeal. The homeowner loved the transformation and appreciated the fast turnaround at a competitive price point of approximately $2,000.
