Tips for Choosing the Right Colour

Here are a few things to keep in mind when picking a colour for your new roof

  • Coordinate with siding and trim: Match or contrast based on your home’s exterior. Grey siding looks beautiful with Charcoal or Pewter Gray, while beige or brown homes may shine with Barkwood or Sepia Brown.

  • Consider your environment: Want to blend into the woods? Go with Shakewood or Hunter Green. Looking to make a bold impression in the city? Try Ebony or Graphite.

  • Think long-term: Neutral tones like Weathered Wood and Pewter Gray age well and appeal to future buyers.

  • Ask to see it in person: Colours look different in natural light. During your consultation, we’ll bring samples so you can see how each shade appears on-site.

Choose a colour that Matches Your Style

Most people only buy a roof once or twice in their life. It's an important decision, and not a cheap one. That’s why it matters who you trust. From materials to workmanship, this isn’t just another project, it’s long-term protection for everything underneath it. The right colour makes all the difference.

Choosing a roof isn’t just about durability, it’s about making the right visual statement too. Whether you go with the GAF Timberline shingles or Diamond Steel, you’ll find colours that complement your home and reflect your personal style.

At Catch All Contracting, we take pride in helping homeowners across Nova Scotia choose the right materials, the right colours, and the right roofing system, installed properly, backed by warranty, and built to last.
