Sterling Exteriors specializes in siding products, roof repair, and other services for your home’s exterior. One of the most common questions we get from our customers is “which siding color is the best?” We wish there was a simple answer to this question, but the reality is that the answer will likely be different for every homeowner.
Here are the four essential tips you should consider when choosing siding color.
Stand Out, But Not Too Much
You want your home to stand out, while still complementing the other homes on your block. To that end, don’t choose a color that will look out of place in your neighborhood. You can use other elements of your exterior to make your home stand out, like by choosing a bright, cheerful color for your front door.
Consider Your Home’s Architectural Style
Pay close attention to the existing architectural style of your home. It has all the visual cues you need to come up with the right choice. However, this doesn’t mean you should be bound by it. You have the freedom to experiment with different siding options too.
Complement Your Roofing System
Different siding materials have different projected lifespans. However, most roofs generally last for at least a few decades. Always keep this in mind. Choose a siding color that goes well with your roof, as you’ll likely have both for many years.
Understand That a Color Looks Different Throughout the Day
Once you’ve narrowed your choices down to a few hues, take the color samples outside at different times of the day and see how they look. A color may look very different in the late afternoon than it did early in the morning.
