Need Help with roof shingle color

13 years ago

Hi All,

Need some advice and input. We have a cape and will be siding as well as putting on a new roof. Our siding color is Crane Cypress green, our windows are white. We're thinking about Gaf mission brown or weathered wood 30 yr shingle and we'd eventually like to put some stonework around the base of the house & Garage. What color shingle do you think would look best and what type of front door would look good?

thanks!

Click on the link I included. Then click on the Shingle Selector icon(US map with magnifting glass.

That opens the selection process---you can select the style house you have, change colors and see which one you like.

I have no connection in any way with that company or the manufacturer.

Here is a link that might be useful: Shingle selector
