WHat color roof for tan siding with green/red accents?

Posted by scottmel (My Page) on

Getting a new Certainteed or Owings Corning roof and having heck of a time b/c of my current color scheme. I did the OC online tool and like Sedona Canyon and Summer Harvest but fear they are busy with all I have going on. Roofer recommend Certainteed Weathered Wood but so much gray in it, I don't see it working? Anyone have pictures of their roof to share?

Is there a reason for both the red and the green? Either would look fine by itself and give the home a more unified feel.

I think the Summer Harvest would work the best of the two. Below is a photo of a home similar to yours with the roof.

Here is a link that might be useful: Summer harvest roof

I think your current roof looks good with your present colors. I would try to find something that is close to what you already have - sorry, but I can't tell from the online samples.

A black roof would work with that or any new color scheme in the future.

I didn't have a chance to look at the company's samples, but I'd go with black or dark charcoal grey, both of which offer flexibility should you want to change the siding and/or trim colors sometime in the future.

thanks everyone. I am just worried about Summer Haravest I don't want to feel like I am living in a fun house...But I do love it! I think I might just going basic shades of brown/tan. Boring for me but in the 3d new look I think it will BLEND into my house rather than making the roof the first thing you see...thanks again.
