Shingles color please help me asap

8 years ago

I need to change roof tomorrow. I know it is a short notice but if there is a someone to help me to make decision I would really appreciate it.
I attached the color of my brick on one picture and the second one has two shingles colors. The one on the left is teak color(darker)and the one on the right is driftwood(on the lighter side)
Which one would go better with my brick?

Personal preference: teak. I only say this because I like the color and everyone seems to have Driftwood or Weathered Wood.

Thank you!
My real brick color is actually on the first picture that I have samplers on also.
I do like teak too, but worry that it will look red if I put teak.
I can not tell if it is more brown or red or even orange a little bit.
What do you think?

A lighter roof in a hot place. The one on the right is lighter.

A winner, either one. I liked the teak, but if you are in a hot area, you might want to choose Driftwood.

Teak. It will look best and won’t look orange. You probably see little flecks of orange. Not a problem. The net impression will be brown. The other choice would look more gray. Go with Teak. It will compliment your brick nicely. Good luck. Terrible to make this big of a decision on such short notice.

My roof is black and I LOVE it.

Those samples look brown. With black shutters and no brown in the brick that I can see, I think black would look totally sharp!

I understand the pressure you feel , but you asked commentors to choose between two colors. Everyone overwhelmingly said "teak" yet you still need more opinions? Some even went to the trouble of providing examples showing exactly the difference. Just take a deep breath and choose the one most people recommended or start a new thread and ask for general opinions and begin again.
