How to Choose a Color for Your New Siding

With so many siding colors to select from, homeowners too often rush into a decision and later regret it. In this post, Eagle Creek Siding, LLC, a renowned siding replacement contractor, lists the steps to choose the best color for your new siding.

Existing Colors

Your builder used an initial combination of siding, trim, roof and brick accent. Stick close to the siding shade your builder chose. If you want to update this color, ask your siding installation expert to provide compatible shades for your existing color combination.

 

Architectural Style

The style and design of your house will look gaudy or elegant in the color you’ve chosen. If your exterior has a more traditional look, it could benefit from classic siding colors such as deep grays or shades of white and ivory. For a modern design, deeper blues or greens can be beautiful. You can consult your exterior renovations expert to help you choose the best siding color for your home’s architectural style.

Make a Decision

Consider shades in the same family for your siding installation. If none feel right, try taking it a step further by choosing shades within that color family. Gray is different than pewter, for example, which can be more subtle than slate. Understanding these small nuances will help turn one standard color into something special for your home.

 

If you need help narrowing down choices, feel free to ask Eagle Creek Siding LLC for samples! That way, you can look at the whole piece against your house before deciding. A sample is also beneficial for looking at lighting changes throughout the day. You’ll see how the lighting affects the color’s appearance of your home.
