\"varietyThere\u2019s something happening to\u00a0metal roofs across the U.S.\u00a0\u00a0Homeowners\u00a0are really getting into making statements with their roofs,\u00a0and nowhere is this\u00a0more obvious than with the colors they\u2019re choosing.\u00a0\u00a0The trend in roofing colors this year is\u00a0bigger and brighter,<\/a> with vivid,\u00a0stand-apart colors showing up on more and more\u00a0roofs.<\/p>\n

The color of the year for 2018\u00a0named by color experts Pantone is Ultra\u00a0Violet.\u00a0\u00a0This is a universal choice and perfect for use, according to\u00a0Pantone, in\u00a0a wide range of applications.\u00a0\u00a0This deep,\u00a0lusty, powerful\u00a0shade when used on a metal roof can make a huge statement\u00a0without\u00a0saying a word.<\/p>\n

The Metal Roofing Alliance\u00a0believes that 2018 will usher in more\u00a0brilliant roof colors than ever\u00a0before.\u00a0\u00a0The alliance predicts that deep\u00a0blue shades, vibrant whites and knock-out reds will be colors high on\u00a0many\u00a0homeowners\u2019 lists this year.\u00a0\u00a0Roof-buyers\u00a0also are heading\u00a0toward multi-colored roofs and roofs with earthy shades such\u00a0as vivid\u00a0stainless steel, titanium and copper.<\/p>\n

More distinctive roofs = more distinctive homes<\/h2>\n

In years past, homeowners tended\u00a0to choose more subtle roofing colors\u00a0that blended in with the colors on other\u00a0parts of their homes or with the\u00a0landscapes surrounding their dwellings.\u00a0\u00a0Now, many people are looking\u00a0to be unique and\u00a0are discarding old color models for shades and tones\u00a0that are impossible to\u00a0ignore.<\/p>\n

When imagining a handsome metal\u00a0roof with a strong, wake-you-up\u00a0color, you might think it\u2019s a little over the\u00a0top (no pun intended).\u00a0\u00a0The\u00a0truth is, a\u00a0distinctive metal roof color can make a great match with\u00a0virtually any style of\u00a0home.\u00a0\u00a0This is because roofing color\u00a0doesn\u2019t act like\u00a0the color of a home\u2019s exterior walls.\u00a0\u00a0For example, you wouldn\u2019t want to\u00a0paint your\u00a0home\u00a0Cardinal Red, but a Cardinal Red\u00a0roof\u00a0can look\u00a0fantastic atop most homes\u00a0with more subtle paint jobs.<\/p>\n

Choosing the right color for your metal roof<\/h2>\n

If you really love it, any color\u00a0in a metal roof can be the right color.\u00a0\u00a0Here\u00a0are some tips in narrowing down your choices.<\/p>\n

1. Consider the light.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Different times of day and the amount of sun or\u00a0clouds can alter the\u00a0color of a roof.\u00a0\u00a0Choose a color you feel\u00a0will look\u00a0great in all light variances.<\/p>\n

2. Functionality beyond looks.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0If a major metal roof selling point for you\u00a0is\u00a0heat reduction, go with a light (but still vivid) shade rather than dark\u00a0hues.<\/p>\n

\"strong<\/p>\n

3. Living with it.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0A metal\u00a0roof is going to last 50 or more years, so in\u00a0choosing your color, make sure\u00a0it\u2019s one you can live happily with for a\u00a0long time.<\/p>\n

4. Consistent color.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0If you\u00a0want your metal roof\u2019s color to remain\u00a0exactly the same over the years,\u00a0consider a high-quality finish such as\u00a0PVDF coatings.\u00a0\u00a0Certain bare metals (copper and patina, for example)\u00a0will naturally change in shade over the years.<\/p>\n

5. Try before you buy. \u00a0<\/strong>The\u00a0Metal Roofing Alliance provides a great\u00a0online tool to help you visualize how\u00a0different colors of roofs will look on\u00a0a home.\u00a0\u00a0Check it out here.<\/p>\n
