A replacement project is a great time to get the roofing system you want exactly, and part of that is choosing a roofing color that will complement your home for years. Fortunately, it’s typical for a roofing company to offer a range of roofing colors you can consider. Unfortunately, the sheer number of options can be confusing for a homeowner. Don’t worry. These tips are for you.
Avoid Trends
Trends will surely make for a standout roofing system but you’re not sure for how long your roof will be turning heads for the right reason. The problem with a trendy color is that they will fall out of style, making your home look dated, which can take away from your property’s overall curb appeal.
Look at Your Neighborhood
It’s easy for anyone looking to make their home stand out to scoff at the idea of choosing a residential roofing color that blends in with their neighborhood. However, this is important in preserving the overall aesthetic of your area. Not to mention that this doesn’t mean you can only choose a subdued color. Unless your homeowner’s association has actual rules on what color options are allowed, you can go for a bold color that pairs well with neutrals. If you have plans of selling your home down the line, you’re also likelier to have an easier time finding a buyer if your home fits in perfectly in the neighborhood.
Be Mindful of the Sun
How the sun hits your roof throughout the day will have an effect on what your roofing color will look like. For example, if you get a lot of direct sunlight, your roofing color can look lighter than it actually is.
