What paver color?

Thanks to the recommendations here we've got Fernando lined up to install our pavers in a few weeks. But we're struggling on color. We have a light gray house with a bluish undertone and the patio will be under a dark brown deck with white railing so it will almost always be shaded. Any suggestions? Or pics of your gray house with pavers? Thanks!

What paver color?

Ours are like a red mixed with grey and the border is dark grey, I can take a pic when i get home, our house has grey siding on top

Re: What paver color?

Did you go to the place to see all the pavers? That helped us a lot! There was also an employee there who really helped us a lot.

FWIW, we stressed over the color and once it was done, realized that it doesn't really matter if it "matches" or whatever. It'll look great no matter what you choose.

Re: What paver color?

Yes, we went yesterday and even brought home some sample pieces. I think what's throwing me off is what we really liked there doesn't look so good against the house. We liked Riverbed and Toffee Onyx Light. I'm thinking we need to go more brown like Sahara Chestnut but I was curious what others have done.

We just signed with Fernando last night! What about the toffee/onyx lite? It would probably look very pretty with your siding.

Re: What paver color?

So we actually did our driveway in toffee onyx (with an onyx natural border).

And we did our side patio (off the driveway, fence separating it) in sahara chestnut lite (with onyx natural border).

I personally love both and don't think you can go wrong. The onyx natural border is gray-ish and would tie either color into the siding.

Re: What paver color?

I can take pics for you. Sahara Chestnut is more orange than yellow.

The Toffee Onyx is more of a mix of a reddish and grays, where each brick is a different color. They're both very pretty.

ETA: Pics in my album. I included a side-by-side of both colors.

Ugh so torn. Love both!!

Re: What paver color?

As I said, you really can't go wrong b/c both are so pretty. Are you doing a driveway and/or a patio? And what size stones are you thinking?

Re: What paver color?

I'm sure you're right. Just need to make a decision and go for it! We're just doing a patio and we're going to use the bigger stones b/c it's a rather large area.

Re: What paver color?

fernando just finished working on our house. We did a mix of toffee onyx and sahara chestnut. Let me see if I can figure out how to post pics

We did sandstone with a sahara chestnut boarder and circle. I love the light and dark contrast. My DH was worreis sandstone would be too light but it's really not. It's a great neutral color. They all are though. You can't go wrong. We used Fernando too! Loved him and his crew!

Re: What paver color?

When we were looking we looked at everyone's houses

Our house is beige with a brown roof. We have Sahara chestnut pavers

My mother in law has a gray house and she has ruby onyx

Ask Fernando his opinion too!

We have toffee onyx pavers

We have sahara chestnut as our patio, and around our pool.

We did 60% sahara chestnut lite and 40% toffee onyx lite with a chestnut border. It's a perfect mix of browns and gray.
