And it actually looks better black than white because stone is generally darker so they should have just left it painted black at that point

I agree and I also hate the White House black trim and black windows trend. They are popping up all over Chicago suburbs and look very tacky. Seems like the most basic and safest option for a home color but i expect the trend to look very bad in a few years maybe a decade.

Yeah, it looks old. I think because that's what every old house, especially with z-brick, does when they sell. They put a cheap coat of paint on and call it "updated"

The natural stone was beautiful and should have stayed 😩 Painted stone is never the aesthetic and comes off tacky in my opinion. Maybe grey would have been another option for the stone. The house looks amazing tho! Great job!

After it was painted, it was done.. A grey with brown or blue/green tones would have looked more natural on the stone texture.

Def should’ve left the stone natural. Looks great. Love the door 🚪

FYI we designed the siphon pickup of the sprayer to fit in your paint bucket through the spout hole on top so you don’t have to remove the lid off your bucket. We recommend you to do it in that matter to help reduce the volume air drying in the bucket and to help avoid contaminates from entering the paint. Awesome video, glad the sprayer worked well for you!

Every man in a relationship knows that exact feeling you had when she didn’t like the color!! I felt your pain!! Way to apologies and love up on each other. Love the color

Yep. I’m with you on this. You definitely shouldn’t have painted the stone and the combo of the white black and brown was gonna look very nice.

You notice how she was in the house the whole time, in the A/C, probably watching one of those “Real wives of (fill in the blank)” Then she just sachets out and proclaims “Na- don’t like it - try again!” That’s the power of pussy right there!

Looks great but black windows will definitely completely the look. Personally I would have left the stone and did a greige on the trim to bring out the stone.

Hey brother. I've been building houses and remodeling for 23 years. I run from painting. Your house looks great.

That intro was the most genuine husband and wife interaction given this situation. Great video :)

Alex, you killed it!!! Your workmanship is bar none. Congrats and enjoy all the looks from neighbors driving by.

I’ve gotta say I love the white stone! Keeps the clean, white look of the walls but adds some texture to it. Natural stone would’ve worked as well, but the white is definitely my favorite

I think the beige windows look good against the white and black. Sometimes white and black can look way too plain. But the green door and the contrasting "off-white" beige color of the windows gives it just enough contrast to look really good. I would leave them as-is. Really good video here. This is the type of content we love to see from you Alex. Keep it up.

Your paint job looks great to me! Honestly I would have been upset if my spouse had changed their mind as well, but glad to see you apologize to her! About 18 years ago my mother and I painted her house after my father had died, with two 1 1/2" brushes! No lie honest to gosh! Two coats of Kilz and two coats of paint, all by hand! I even took my daughters swing set and made it into scaffolding to paint from! It was brutal and took 3 months, every single day! Fast forward and it is time to paint it again only Mom has passed away and everyone in the family is busy and unable to help, they all however have an opinion on the color, which I am the one buying!!!! So, at least be comforted in the fact that you only have your wife to deal with and you own 2 sprayers!! Please pray for me, I am going to need it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I completely loved all the husband/wife dynamics and the camaraderie you both enjoy. I enjoyed how you both just kept it real and were yoiurselves.

Just my two cents but I actually like how the black kind of accents the lines in the stones now after painting over it with the white. Looks amazing man!

I loved how you were vulnerable and included the every day frustrations that a lot of people are scared to share on social media platforms.

The brick or stone turned out perfect ! Looks planned with black grout! Lovely a happy error!

It looks fantastic. That scene with the stone plays out in every house in America lol..husband gets pissed, pounds his chest and minutes later is apologizing and doing what he said he wouldn’t do anyway. 🤣🤣 first time viewer, new subscriber.

looks so good, crazy how much paint can just change and refresh the way something looks

Maybe there is a way to sandblast the white/black paint from the stones to return them to their original?

Great job on painting. I did our house a few years ago and man, it never seemed to end! With the stone- good job listening to your wife and then coming back together on that. Base coat of grey on the stone and pick out a few other neutral colors and some sponge painting maybe? Also loved seeing how your family is growing and playing together!

LMAO..when she said “truth or lie”…”iii don’t hate it”… your face was classic! You should have seen that coming. I like it! Came out nice!

Good on you and your family for putting together this content, it truly shows that anyone can get good results if they care enough to get them. The best thing I would say I get from your videos is, motivation, and understanding that it's okay to fail and make mistakes, because that's how we learn and become better. If everyone could just think back about the time when they didn't know what they knew now, how would you want someone to respond and give advice to you. Great job, and keep it up :)

I liked the black brick.

Love the way you enjoyed the work, chuckles in between. And love the way you pissed off but you guys are lovely couple , can see the strong love , happy family. Stay blessed. 🎉

Love the speed of the video. Keeps it fresh and not boring to watch. Really good tips and application. Well done you two!

Good video. Was surprised when you took off the siding- you had no barrier between siding and OSB.

You shouldn't have a barrier there, other than an air gap so it can dry out. A barrier would trap moisture and cause rot. Good observation though

@@n3rdcoast162 in our area most of the homes have a house wrap or they use the zip system. The only time they have a gap is when it’s a shingle or specific type of siding. Not the type shown in video. But maybe Idaho is different due to the weather.

Great job!! I can't believe that's the baby. Wow she is growing fast.

I'll preface with I get the game and don't judge anyone for staying in the algorithm. That said, I can only imagine the conversation of having a little fight and making it the thumbnail because that's what gets views. That stuff aside, nice job and that's a lot of work.

Way to go with your Control Pro 170 and FLEXiO 3500! You did a great job with your Wagner paint sprayers and glad the house came out looking great.

Definitely NATURAL Stone colors with the new house paint & new trim

I like the kept natural stone color that you see in the b roll for the backyard. You were right once again!

It's beautiful. Good call on the white paint on the bricks.

Love the door colour ❤️😉🇨🇦👍🏼 I personally liked the old colour but you did a awesome job👍🏼❤️🇨🇦😉

When I start cocking the inner trim , it’s good to have a rag and a one gallon bucket of water to clean up your fingers after. Just a good tip

Beautiful job, the white looks good too

Amazing, thank you for all the tips!

That was the best unintentional impression of a short person! I do the same thing when I don’t want to get a ladder!😂

I love it! And I love the stone painted. Perfect.

beautiful. good husband and nice family. I liked the grey stone.

Have always been told not to pressure wash “upwards” into cladding as water can get forced up between. Also, good to use house wash with some antifungal stuff in it, breaks up the dirt prior to washing and stops anything growing on the house (especially in damper climates- it really shows on the white paint).

Any concern there wasn't a house wrap or vapor barrier behind the siding you removed and replaced?

@workinprogress5936

Exactly what I was going to say. I'm more concerned about that then the siding itself. I would absolutely halt all painting and make sure it was wrapped correctly.

Refer to the IECC climate zone map to determine energy conservation code. Depending on what zone you live in will determine the amount of insulation, or R-value, you need on the side of a house. Also, depending on what system the engineer approves for the builder to use will determine if a vapor barrier is needed. Usually WRB and air barrier is one unit and easy to install. Look up Zip System Sheathing.

Excellent video m’man. Black on white is on point, white stone was definitely the move, and the green is just the right amount of color “pop”. I also love the very HGTV reveal and outro vibes 👌🏾💯

love how to call out the haters! and the humor is great. house looks great.

You and your wife did a great job. Looks great! 👍

I love it! I so want to paint my house white with black trim so I was excited about that choice.

Love the door color too.

The black stone looked amazing

Looks good! I like the painted stone! Has a very modern feel. 👏👏👏

I would have left natural stone, also. You did an outstanding job painting the house, but your wife picked the wrong trim color since you have insert panels inside the windows. It would have blended better to do trim in dark toupe grey and house in a warmer white. You'd have achieved the modern look she was after and windows would have matched better. Just a 🤔....

Repainting the stone white was a good call and it turned out looking very nice!

Awww the black was perfect!

I agree the beige windows make a huge difference and detract from the black trim. I also agree that the stone needed to be left as it was.

I think it looks amazing and if you hadn't painted the rock with the black it wouldn't have the darkness between the rocks. It would have been to much white or had the tannish hint to it. Thank you for sharing I'm so glad that "mistakes" happened, I really love how it turned out. Great Job!!!!

You did the best job in my opinion and I love what you did around the the windows!!!!

It looks great! I can’t wait to do mine!!! The only thing I would have done differently is I would have painted the windows black as well other then that I love it!! We also have stone but I’m leaving ours natural lol just repainted our door a red color

It turned out great! Not gonna lie, even with the black stones this would look great.

The house looks great. Thanks for sharing.

looks nice. I like the contrast of the windows with the black trim

Awwwww “I love you too much!” MY HEART!!!!

tricorn black is my favorite color!!! I've painted alot with it.

Loved the stone trim in the charcoal/black or the natural color

Wow! No one can ever say you don’t work hard - a huge job!

II like the white glad you changed it looks great!

That original brick with the white and black was 🔥. White looked good too though.

It looks modern and refreshed. Your wife is very lucky indeed.

Definitely agree with non painted brick. Love the color scheme and all the work put in. The look of the natural brick though. Great work brother.

Preferred the natural stone as well but the contrast it has now still looks great, nice work.

Venturi principle says the former RT 🤣. Love it! House looks great!

I just finished painting my house and used the sherwin-williams duration and it works great. I have pressure washed my house (about 30 days after painting) and it held up beautifully. Also if you would have gotten a pro account the paint would have been little cheaper. At least it was for me in the houston texas area.

It looks amazing! I love it!

it looks so good what a life dude, god bless

I remodel homes,I think leaving the brown stone would have looked awesome with 3 different colors contrasting...but the black looks OK too!

Looks super sharp

Back yard looks especially good!

Super nice. Great job as always.

Looks great!

Can't wait for us all to reminisce about this white and black house scheme and think of the 2020's

"It's cause we tried Jerry." lmao I snorted and scared my poor dog when he said that X'D

White washing the stone was the right way to go in my opinion. Love the door color.

I think it turned out nice. The painted stone looks okay but as a rule I never would paint natural stone or brick. Beautiful home, though, you did great work! Thank you for showing the reality of renovations with spouse hahaha
