Improvement for sure! But gray would have really popped with the red
brick, white trim, gray mortar joints and black hand rail. Those colors
together yell "paint me gray." Sorry you didn't hear it.

Your house your colors.

Only until the neighbors complain again. Too bad he didn't know there
were "rules" he's supposed to follow before he slapped on all the paint
the first time around.

Matters not... many villages in the US have picyune rules about things
like paint colors... where I live painting things outdoors, including
personal vehicals, school bus yellow is disallowed.

I don't live in an HOA area but it is now deemed historic. With that new
ruling there are restrictions of what can be done or added to a house or
the property.

Two years ago I had a concrete driveway poured in my backyard in anticipation
of a carport for my new car. I ordered one online and thought maybe I should
see about getting a building permit. Off to the codes and building permits
office I trotted to find out what I had ordered is not compliant with the new
ruling for my area. Who would have thought six posts and a roof for a car
would have to meet certain guidelines? Nobody is seeing this carport but me
and the garbage men since it almost at the back of my lot.

John's house may very well be in a historic district with certain do's and
don't's, too.

If all of that's your lot, that's big for the city.

Did they force you to have the concrete busted up and removed too?

HOA in his case is a simile. He probably doesn't have an HOA, per se,
but there are *ordinances* to comply with in his neighborhood. He said
so himself, he couldn't get an "Occupancy Permit" until he changed the
paint. Obviously there are rules he wasn't aware of. Call it what you
want (HOA or not), now he has to repaint.

I'm going to offer a labor-saving suggestion. After you've put however many
coats of paint on your porch and it's thoroughly dried opt for an indoor/
outdoor rug/runner. The rug will prevent the paint from being worn off
quickly and save you time and hair-pulling from repainting every year. Put
the rug right outside the front door leading to your steps.

Sounds good. I think the runner should be day-glo orange.

No, no, no!

He needs to head to Home Depot or Lowe's and he might be able to snag one
on clearance. I'd suggest Walmart but he'd probably have a meltdown.

You'd think deplorables hated Walmart, because Walmart is one of the
reasons why America has to be made great again. But they all love it
because in the end, all that counts is $$$.

They carry pretty much the same thing as other large box stores and large
box home improvement stores. Just like those other stores, they stock
their own brand.

Righto Druce! We are all descended from aliens ... Ferengis.

You'd like walmart. They have benches in the front foyer where you
could sit and sniff everyone entering the store.

And it's often a false economy. They can buy 10 pieces of cheap Chinese
junk or 1 good item. The 10 pieces of junk fall apart while the 1 good
thing is still going strong.

The best door mats we've found are those constructed from rubber
tires, they last practically forever, we have several... we have them
on our wood deck, they drain and dry fast. The outside feral cats
love to sleep on them and they use them for scratching and can't hurt
them. We have them in our garage and basement:

Those are great and long-wearing but he needs a long runner type mat.
Something that reaches from the top step of his front porch all the
way to the door. Something that will protect that paint from wearing
off from constant foot traffic.

No matter what type of paint he uses, it will wear off due to constant
in and out that front door.

Any of those would be a great choice but I think the first one, my favorite
as well, would be really good about hiding everyday dirt.

I kinda liked the Lavendar. Brown is fine though.

I resist Grey because I'd feel like I was walking on the painted grey
decks of a ship.

Where I worked one of the owners liked grey. What a depressing color
and he had it all over. We had an 18" flood and he was in Europe at the
time so when we cleaned up I had our office painted a light green. Much
better.
