Tips to Help You Choose the Color of Your New Siding

Your siding protects your home from harsh elements like snow, rain and high winds. It prevents moisture from penetrating your home and causing extensive damage. Reliable, as an expert new siding installer in the Birmingham, AL metro area, wants you to know that investing in high-quality and attractive siding will result in increased curb appeal, weather protection and energy efficiency.  

When planning a siding replacement project, besides material, you need to choose a color as well. A trusted design and build company gives tips to help you decide. 

Consider the Style of Your Home

The first thing you must consider when choosing a siding color is the style of your house. The architectural design of your home can help determine which color palette you should choose. For instance, Craftsman homes often look great in rugged, earthy hues, such as olive greens, browns and deep reds. You can select more playful hues and bold color combinations if you have a Victorian home. 

Decide on a Main Siding Color

Consider the color of your surroundings or environment when selecting the main siding color. It’s a good idea to ask your contractor for color samples. Bring the samples with you and see how they look at different times of the day. If you’re still unsure which color to choose, Reliable Design-Build-Remodel can help you decide. We can also assist with your kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects. 

Select a Secondary Siding Color

The right combination of warm and cool colors will create a balanced-looking home exterior. If your main siding color is in a warm, neutral hue, you can make it stand out even more with a cool secondary hue. Moreover, if you are using more than one material, it’s best to limit it to three. Doing so will prevent your humble abode from looking too busy or all over the place.  

Choose a Color for Your Trim

Lastly, you’ll need to pick a color for the trim. Your home will look more polished with trim and accents. White trim is a safe choice because it works with nearly all colors. If your exterior has neutral and muted colors, consider a brighter trim color for more contrast and depth.
