How Roofers Can Help You Choose the Right Colour for Your Roof?

Roofs are the most visible part of the house. They are protective crowns resting on the house to protect the property’s interior from weather hazards. If you’re planning a new roof installation, contact professional roofers in Norwich.
They have the expertise of selecting the suitable material and colour and help with complete roof installation. The most challenging part is deciding the roof colour you should choose for your house.
Having roofers on the team can be helpful. Here’s how they can help you select the colour of your roof.
What should you consider when selecting the roof colour?
Match with existing architecture
The roofer always suggests sticking with the house’s architecture when selecting the roof colour. For instance, you can opt for bolder colour schemes if you have a Victorian house.
Colour schemes like dark grey, green, and black suit Victorian architecture. Again, if you have a Georgian roofing style, the best option is to use light colours and materials like stone slates, clay tiles, and timber shingles.
Match with neighbour’s homes
If you don’t want your house to look odd in the locality, select the roof colour depending on the type of standard colour in all the houses nearby. For instance, if you pop up the roofs with a pink-coloured roof, you’ll stand out among the crowd. However, roofers suggest homeowners build houses with the same coloured roofs.
Check the longevity of colour coats
Consult with the roofers and check the longevity of the roof colour you’re planning to select. Trending colours are temporary. The trends fade, and the bright-coloured roofs will look odd. Hence, it is always advisable to stick to the basics. Also, ensure that your roof colour aligns with local environmental regulations.
Consider lighting conditions
Roof colours play an essential role in improving the lighting conditions of the property. If you get a dark roof colour, your interiors will become darker. Incredibly, the light from the ceiling will not be reflected throughout the rooms.
On the other hand, a light-coloured roof will not pose this problem. You can expect better lighting conditions if you have a light-coloured roof.
