Gray exterior paint colors are classic choices that work with any color scheme and combination. Gray works with white trim, darker gray trim, red doors, and pretty much any configuration you can imagine. Whether you want cool and classic or daring and bold with a hint of blue, gray is a versatile choice for the Northwest.
A light gray can take years off the look of an older rambler, providing an updated, clean look that appeals to any taste.

Light Gray Exterior Paint Colors
A light gray with a warm undertone creates a classic and calm finish. It is perfect for both large and small exteriors in our Northwest setting. Note: Light gray siding usually looks best with pure white or very light gray trim.
Classic Gray Favorites:
Charcoal Gray
Rich and deep, charcoal gray can make your house stand out in neighborhoods filled with light browns and beiges. Consider black accent shutters or a bold front door to complete this modern look.



Blue Gray
A stylish gray with blue undertones adds flavor to your exterior. We recommend pure white trim or a much lighter shade of the body color. A red door can be a striking addition to this scheme.


Red Gray
Gray with a rich red undertone creates a lush, vibrant structure. This works beautifully with off-white trim or a monochromatic lighter shade.
