Roof color availability varies by region so you'll need to find out what's available in your area. You can go to the GAF site and upload the pic of your house and try on different roofing colors. But beyond that, the look will vary based on the shingle depth, shapes, and color variations within the shingles. I agree that looking at other roofs is a big help. We've had people stop and ask us what's on our house, so if you see something you really like, you might just ask.

I know what you mean, we do like the color that is on it now, but would like something a little different to look at.....it sure is hard to choose....in the brown family there are so many! We found an aged redwood color we kinda like will have to see what it looks like on an actual shingle to know for sure....I know any brown would work, and being the house is really a neutral color it shouldn't be as hard as I am making it....just don't want to make a BIG mistake!!! Thanks!

Nice house. So I'd first look at what the warrantees are and how long the company has been in business. We bought steel shingles for our roof with a 'lifetime warrantee' but then the company was dissolved into another who wouldnt add skylights without voiding the warrantee. Depending where you live , ie florida, louisiana, texas, if you have hurricanes.. /lots of rain.. I wouldnt ignore new flashing. and hurricane straps as necessary. maybe go straight to the manufacturer of the current skylights and see if they have local contractors that might salvage your present windows. or Pella or Anderson, for new windows .. from there you might have a pick of the litter for actual shingles from different sources and get exactly what you want. If you have to choose a contractor without window company help. my question is do you like the skylights where they are or have you found they might be better up or down /left/right? Might as well get that ironed out too. Another serious matter is whether you plan to add extensions to the house. Extensions need an equal slope on the roof as anywhere else. No cutting corners with that rubber roof sealer.. I just say this from experience. our new ceiling of extension is in worse shape than the 50yo house its attached to. The rain comes in under the gutter of the original house. Have the final plan in mind; before you get a roofing company that kaboshes all your imaginations with warrantee limitations on shingles. It might be a question of getting most of the house shingled one way and rinky dink shortlife shingles for the part that will be cut away later. Whatever product is easiest to maneuver around for changes to the structure.

Wowie! What a gorgeous home. Very, very much like the house my Dad grew up in on the Cape...a cross gabled Queen Anne Victorian with wrap around porch. I think my grandfather built the house maybe 1892/3. Roofing is so expensive and there seems to be a shortage of white cedar shingles. Find something that resembles weathered white cedar.
