Roof Color Poll

Monday, May 2, 2011

This is my dream home that we just bought a couple of months ago. It needs a new roof right away since the original shake has moss, is curled, and falling off. We are going to use architectural shingles since they are much cheaper than shake. I used a roofing website to see what the different colors would look like, but I am still undecided. I am also thinking of painting the red door black. I love red doors, but does a red door with orange/red brick look good? Should I paint the white garage door and white trim and aluminum siding? Does the white trim and siding look good? I would love any opinions! Especially since I am going to be stuck with this new roof for the next 30 years.
