4 Ways To Decide On A Shingle Color For Your Home

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again. There is a method to choosing the color of your shingles. Overall we say a good rule of thumb is to choose a color that is in your brick. In addition, we’ve nailed down some more ways to help you decide. So here we’ll discuss 4 ways to decide on a shingle color for your home!

Ask Neighbors

If you live in an association, there may be rules on which shingle color you can have. Be sure to ask, because you want to be fully informed and aware of the rules of the neighborhood. Drive through your neighborhood for some ideas!

Consider Style

Take into consideration the architectural style of your home. Shingles that look great on one style may not look as great on another style.

Match Your Brick

What we’ve always suggested is that you should choose a color from your brick when choosing your shingle color. If this limits you in any way, you can apply the same rule with siding. Always make sure the color of your shingles match in some way to your home for a fluid, consistent look.

Consider Curb Appeal

Whether you are selling your home or plan to be there forever, curb appeal is important. You can’t go wrong when you go with a neutral, standard shingle color. Excellent curb appeal is achievable with other elements of your home, while leaving the roof a standard color.
