Best Roof Colors for a Brick House

Brick is often the material of choice for homes because it’s durable and a timeless style. However, that also means the color of the brick stays with a home forever. For a truly beautiful home owners should ensure the color of their roof compliments the exterior of their brick home. At Roof Right, a Maryland roofing company, we see a lot of homeowners who ask about the best roof colors for a brick house. With that in mind we have a few points that will help to inform the best options for your roof color.

Thinking about a home’s color scheme

Replacing a roof will drastically increase the curb appeal of a home. Although, just how much the home’s appearance will improve can depend on the color chosen. Anyone with design experience knows that choosing the right color for the roof can make a house look more modern, more expensive, and more put together.

When considering colors to complement a brick home, take note of the trim work, shutters, and doors. The roof color should match or pair well with all those housing details. Alternatively, this could be an opportunity to change the exterior color scheme of the home.

Brick homes and roof colors

Take into consideration the particular shade of brick of the home. The majority of brick houses are red tones. The best colors for the roof of a red toned brick house are shades of dark brown, black, or gray. It’s advised to stay away from lighter colors. A lighter roof will clash with a red town brick home. A light roof will be visibly dirty, which will age the appearance of the entire home.
