If you’re planning to replace the roof on your house, you don’t have to stick with its current color. You have a wealth of options to choose from. Here are some things to consider that can help you choose your roof color.
Think about Your Preferences
When you bought your house, you didn’t get a say in the roof color, but now you do. You’re free to select any color that’s available. Think about your home’s curb appeal and the overall effect you want to create. Looking at photos online and in magazines or driving around and looking at homes in the area can give you inspiration.
See How Colors Would Look on Your House
When people look at your home, they will see the roof and the rest of the exterior together, so you need colors that will pair well. Once you’ve narrowed down shingle colors to a handful of candidates, ask for samples. Set each sample next to the exterior of the house to see how they look together.
You may discover that a particular shingle looks fantastic next to your siding, or you may realize that a shingle color you thought was perfect doesn’t work with the color of your home’s exterior. Repeat this exercise at different times of day so you can evaluate shingles in a variety of lighting conditions.
Consider the Cost of Different Shingles
You have options when it comes to color, as well as brand and style. Look into all the shingles that are available and narrow it down to a few that you particularly like. Then ask your contractor to give you estimates for each type so you can make a final decision.
