10 Trending Exterior Paint Colors for 2024

When you are a property owner in the Burlington, Carrboro, Chapel Hill, Durham, Graham, Hillsborough, Mebane, or Morrisville, NC areas, you will want to make sure that you have an exterior paint color that you enjoy. Taking care of the exterior of your home is extremely important to preserve its value, while also allowing you to be proud of the property you have worked hard to own or rent. Many people tend to focus on the interior painting of their homes or businesses, however giving the exterior an updated facelift can help to enhance the curb appeal of your space.

Due to the elements experienced in the greater Durham, NC, and Chapel Hill, NC areas, it is not uncommon for chipping of paint to occur, or dirt and grime to build up on the surface of your building. Moving forward with the proper cleaning and investing in a fresh coat of paint every couple of years can truly bring your property to life.

Some of the most popular and trending paint colors for the exterior of your home may air on the side of caution, while others allow you to play around with a more adventurous hue.

By choosing colors from these lines, you can feel confident that the appearance and quality of your exterior paint service will be top-tier.

Some of the following colors and shades people are gravitating towards in 2024 include:



• Warm Neutrals: Neutrals can be a safer option for those who do not want to fully commit to a color statement but allow for a wide range of different options to play around with. Beiges or creams can create a beautiful finished and elevated look, while allowing you to pair different shades of color on front doors or shutters.
  
  
• Pure Whites: There is nothing more classic than a crisp white interior, and moving forward with a white exterior is timeless. While you may have to put more attention to cleaning the exterior to avoid staining, the beauty of a white building is worth the extra care.
  
• Dramatic Darks: Dark greys or blacks allow for a moody and modern finish, and are helpful for those with busy schedules as any dirt build-up can be more easily hidden on a darker color exterior.
  
• Shades of Blue: Blues are one of the colors that have a very large shade range, therefore you can choose between a lighter blue, or lean more towards a blue-gray or navy. Blue shades are also great options because they allow for a pop of color, without having to commit to a more uncommon appearance.
  
• Bold Reds: Red shades are another great option for those who do not want to go with a classic shade, but also have a variety to play around with. Red paint often pairs well with white finishes, existing brick and stone, and looks great paired with beautiful landscaping pieces.
  
  
• Earth Tones: Greens and browns are becoming more popular, due to the way they can be paired with other tones and finishes. Similarly to other colors, greens and browns are easily tied in with materials such as stone and other garden features.
