Do not select colors off a computer screen.

Obtain samples of the colors CertainTeed and Georgia Pacific offer, take them to your site, hold each sample in the vertical position, and determine which one you like the best.

Yes. Samples. Bigger samples than the little chips. Then go do this. And look at it in different lights/times of day.

Thank you all for the help! We have now ordered larger samples. Will do these and look into the Hardi board. Have you had good luck with it?

Going down this same road now, what was the verdict? Can you share some final pics?

Thanks!

Nice, thanks for sharing!

Lauren Pluschke - thanks for sharing your photo - looks great! Why did you decide against Snow, if you dont mind my asking. I'm also trying to decide between Colonial White and Snow but don't have big samples so any insight you have would be appreciated. Also what color did you paint the brick? Thank you!

Im also trying to decide between colonial white and snow! have you completed your project yet?

Hi Lauren, what color white did u paint ur brick?

Im trying to decide now between snow and sandstone beige. I really don’t want any yellow. What made you choose Colonial White?

Also trying to decide between snow & colonial white. Any thoughts?

Snow gave off a blueish tone. I went with colonial white and love it

sandstone beige

I’m having the same dilemma! I’m so happy I found this old post because it def just made my decision! Going to do colonial white too!

We also went with colonial white. Its currently under construstion, but so far very happy with our choice.

How about sandstone beige with white trim. i just want a very light tan. no yellow color.

Any pictures of houses with snow? Thanks!

Anyone have a photo with snow ?? Thanks in advanced!

I would also love to see anyone who has done snow! I can't find a single example.

I am driving by some houses with snow and colonial this week and will take pictures to share. Not sure why its so hard to find both of these whites online !

Snow:

16 inches

Haha not helpful 😂

Snow

Not the best photos. tinted window. I should have stuck my phone out the window but i already felt like a creeper

These are loading in terrible color so maybe this was a bad idea. I drove by three in colonial white and this one in snow. I was told colonial is bright white (which it definitely is, but crisp and clean and not blinding), and snow is more grey undertone. I actually really like it in person and wouldnt be able to tell the difference between the whites honestly. I will update when i get pictures of the other in snow.

Colonial

for colonial white what brand/color did you use for door trims?

I'm having delema, looking Certainteed sandstone beige siding cottage.

Hi any updated photos on houses done in snow?

The thing I noticed about snow when I drove by houses, is that white trim or garage doors will not match. The whites really clashed. I went with colonial white and cannot believe what a perfect beautiful creamy white it is. I expected it to be more crisp and stark and its not. However its not yellow either. Happy to say after struggling between snow and colonial that I am very happy I choose colonial. Hope that helps.

Just adding that we chose Certainteed Colonial White for our own home renovation and are very happy with the result. We have two extra brand new boxes (8” wide, Colonial white, 1 box 10’, 1 box 12’-6”) that we're trying to sell if anyone is local to Westchester, NY area. Reach out if interested!
