Project Description
This 3-day exterior house painting in Indianapolis, IN, focused on a complete color transformation of a classic brick home. Our team at Sharper Impressions Indianapolis provided a full exterior makeover including brick painting, shutter painting, garage door painting, and porch column updates. The customer came to us looking for bold change—and we delivered a dramatic upgrade with expert planning, preparation, and execution.
Full Brick Painting & Color Consultation with Renderings
This wasn’t your average repaint—it was a full transformation. The customer wanted complete coverage over their red brick, with no bleed-through, and a refined, modern look. Because the brick had not been painted before, we started by priming it with Sherwin-Williams Black Satin, which was tinted grey to help build opacity and promote strong color adherence. This custom-tinted primer allowed for better topcoat coverage and ensured a deep, consistent final finish.

To help the homeowner visualize the transformation, we provided photoshopped renderings of their home in several gray options. This personalized consultation made it easy for them to confidently select Sherwin-Williams Winsome Grey (9624) for the brick. The shutters were painted in Tricorn Black (6258), while the garage door was refreshed with Network Gray (7073)—all coordinated to create a cohesive, contemporary palette.
