Getting new roof/shingles

last month
last modified: 12 days ago

This will be done soon, and I want to know if you think there's a different and prettier, shingle color we could change them from the color we have now, which is fine but I'm bored with it. I can't find the other house pictures I took and I can't take a picture because the download cable broke and the new one doesn't work.

We live in the country with a gravel driveway. House is L shaped and so is the driveway. The multicolor brick are fall colors. There's a stone chimney, and stone corners. Same stone used for indoor fireplace.

The trim is white along with two white gables, both can be seen from the road depending which direction someone is driving. The front porch is large and a shed roof above. Porch ceilings are white. Most windows, but not all, have white plantation shutters.

We have four seaons, very hot summers and hit frigid cold in winter, but not for long periods. Below are two pictures, and the roof isn't black, it's medium brown. No other changes to the exterior will be done.

Porch facing road, if you look carefully you can see areas of rock.


The end of the house to the left which can be seen driving up the road has a white gable. The opposite end of the house on the right side has a white gable facing the road. I bet we're stuck with brown. :( Black is pretty but good in summer
