What color siding would you do with this roof color?

I rather of had a nice dark roof so I could do a light gray siding but that is not going to happen. I am thinking gray will not look that great with that roof color.

We do want a red door and possibly red shutters or red flower boxes.

If you have pictures/samples that would be way cool too!

Clay. Darker than regular beige. Looks nice with red or black shutters

Tan/Beige or Clay colors would look great.

I agree with a darker clay beige, also maybe blue or a pale yellow.

Here are some pics of homes that have a similar roof color to yours:

Re: What color siding would you do with this roof color?

has anyone called a siding/gutter guy to come to get pricing (free estimates) before purchase? We are signing contracts next week and figured after the contract is signed we can bring people to get prices and then hire them once we close or is this like jumping the gun?

Dh wants tan/beige even though I liked the blue but he is dead set on no blue on the outside since he wants it inside which is fine with me.

I would not bring anyone in until you close. There are still so many steps that need to be done after signing of the contracts.

I think if you wait until closing you can get someone in pretty quickly anyway.

Good luck

Re: What color siding would you do with this roof color?

you sound just like me.... I want a dark grey roof so we could do light grey siding too!

what color is that roof? beige? or red?

If it's beige, I think you're stuck with white if you want to do a red accents.

same problem we're having. we have natural cedar shingles on 3 sides of the house, some red brick in the front, and a red roof.

we're also stuck with white siding. (we're doing black shutters)

ooh, I take that back, I love the picture above with the light blue house with a bright red door.... super-cute!
