Kolorseal created Ivory cream dream home

Colour coating windows, doors and roofline can be a technical advantage for fabricators and installers, as homeowners may need help deciding what works with  different bricks and rendering.

This was the case with one Kolorsealed project where the homeowners wanted to ensure that all window frames, roofline and rainwater products complemented the exterior of the property to suit their taste.

Deborah Hendry, Managing Director comments, “Although red bricks may seem a standard across the UK when it comes to architectural design, they come in many varying shades and sizes.  

Making a property unique could be a challenge in this regard, but if the right tonal colours are used then experimenting with the right shade can really make a home stand out in such a beautiful way.”

For this house, the owner opted for RAL 1015 Ivory Cream throughout.  All soffits, fascias and rainwater products integrated seamlessly into the overall finish giving a chic appearance on the end result.

As the Kolorseal range has been specifically developed for the building industry, the experience and advice available to customers regarding colour matching is second to none.

A softer cream or taupe shade can make a home look very distinctive alongside red brickwork, particularly if it is a softer tone.   On this project, the homeowner felt white windows would be too sharply defined.

Deborah continues, “For this home, the owners evaluated a number of colour charts to consider their options. It was easier for them to decide what would work alongside their particular shade of red brick.

While Anthracite Grey options have been exceptionally popular with both designers and homeowners in recent years – trends are not always the best choice, particularly if people want their home to have unique, kerb appeal.

It is also important when choosing coloured products that the paint used provides a superior performance to standard paints.  They need to be low maintenance and guarantees should be offered for added reassurance.

When discussing a new project with a homeowner, it is essential to be able to rely upon the quality of the finished products and advise on colours available to them.  An installation or fabrication business could have to rely upon that for referrals.

With people looking for real added value, they are becoming more adventurous regarding the windows and doors they have installed in their homes, – even when it comes to one particular colour, there is now an abundance of choice for them in terms of shade.”

Kolorseal can provide solutions for every single customer on modern, traditional or commercial projects. With the ability to colour coat products in any RAL or BS colour as well as matching alternative colour charts such as Farrow & Ball or the bespoke Kolorseal range, the company can achieve virtually any colour required.
