How to Maximize Your Home’s Curb Appeal by Choosing the Right Roof Color
When it comes to choosing the right roof color, you need to put some serious thought into it. You don’t want to get this wrong and have a off putting roof color for the next 30 years. Here are some tips to help ensure you get it right.
– Consider the Color of Siding & Trim: You will want to make sure you’re thinking about the color of your siding and trim when you choose the color of your roof. If you are thinking about changing the color of your home anytime soon, this is a good time to nail down the right color. The color of your home needs to be complimented by the color of your roof. If you have cool colors on your home, consider cooler tones on the roof. Warmer and more traditional colors on the house should be balanced by warmer tones on the roof.
– Think About the Style of Your Home: There are several different styles of homes. If you have a traditional home, consider putting a roof on your home that will compliment that style. Cape cod homes should have a beach feel to the roof. If you have light siding on your home, think about a lighter roof color as well. The style of your home should be enhanced by the new roof.
– Consider the Natural Surroundings: The natural surroundings of your home is another thing to think about when you choose the color of your new roof. You want to think about darker colors if you are in a heavily wooded area. If you live next to water, you might want to consider a lighter color on the roof. If you live in an area that has a lot of algae growing on roofs, you might want to think of a darker roof color like black that will do a good job of hiding it.
