For a timeless statement, black pairs elegantly with any combination.

How To Match A New Siding Color To Your Home’s CurrentRoof
If you are re-roofing your home and looking at how to match roof shingles to your house color, there is one rule to follow: stick with thebasics. The most popular colors of roof shingles are shades of black, brown,gray, and red.
These popular shingle colors stem from the materials that builders have been using for centuries: slate, wood, metal, and clay. Today,variations of black, brown, gray, and red roof colors are available in a variety of different roofing materials. Bring samples of roofing home with you and hold them next to your siding to see which classic color complements your home best.
Try experimenting with lighter shades for a brighter look,or darker shades for a more dramatic effect. Keep in mind that darker roof colors can also draw more heat into the home—a bonus or a drawback, depending on your local climate.
