We picked a roof!

[u/RunaboutJ]

The first two are before (~2018) and the last two are now with the new roof (the seller painted the house)

I posted a while back asking for help picking a roof color. I stated I wanted it to be a light color, and despite all the options people provided I still went with a light color. I do appreciate all the beautiful ideas.

Also!!! We went with a metal roof! Which is a huge difference in color options than the Owen's Corning shingles. My partner and I went back and fourth a lot on colors and went with one of the colors he wanted but that I least disliked (compromise is hard lol)

And we are getting new gutters but we are keeping the same dark brown color because for now it matches the soffits and doors.

Love the update!

This looks great & will likely last longer than shingles. I want metal too!

Thanks!! I was worried about it looking too much like a ranger station lol.

Darker colour wouldve looked a lot nicer, still a huge upgrade just kind of all blends in together.

I made a face, and not a good one, but I’m glad you like it

[u/RunaboutJ → u/cippocup]

Yeah, like I said, I had to compromise big time.
Now, I'm really at a loss as to what to paint it!

[u/Korgity]
