My asphalt shingles need replacing and I would like to replace my badly faded vinyl siding. I do not want to replace the siding with the same colour though. My question is: Do you know of any online colour selection websites that would let me experiment with siding, shingles and accent trim colours? Also, what is your opinion of the new dark colours offered in vinyl? I really like the red siding, with white trim and 2 tone black shingles.
Answer:
Anytime something like that comes new on the market, I want to give it a couple years to determine how much it will fade, become brittle, etc. Any manufacturer's website should give you what you want for comparison's sake.
