Choosing a roof color for a two-tone gray house can make a noticeable difference to the overall look. It would be helpful to compare the roof options with the siding, trim, and existing exterior accents to see which combination feels most balanced.

I don't care of any of the three. The pewter is the right intensity but is not reading gray on my screen. The charcoal is way too dark.

I like the charcoal. Your landscaping is perfection.

My 1 st thought charcoal but Norwood could be right so check that. IMO charcoal allows a change in siding color in the future a bit easier to decide. I sure would like to actually see the house so removing some of that overgrowth would be on my list

Thanks All --

@Norwood Architects -- I didn't realize a connection to climate. Will check!

@Patricia Colwell Consulting, pruning is first on the list!

@arcy.gw I will check again today in better light. If the color in my photos was off will repost

Black

Agree with arcy…charcoal’s too dark/harsh. Pewter’s good with intensity but not reading right on my screen.

Thank you all ... I ended up agreeing that charcoal is too dark/harsh ... especially since adding the black metal roof by the front door overhang will provide the drama of black, and the pewter gray is still dark, but a little softer everywhere else. BTW, one bonus for pewter gray is that it gets less hot than charcoal in the summer; for energy use and environmental reasons, another plus. .

The Pewter looks greenish on my screen -- not good with the house color.

Looking at this more, I think Driftwood Blend would be the way to go. Whichever choice you male jave the roofer grab a coupol bundles of your last two chopices and lay the actual shongles out on YOUR ROOF. Do not select from a sample booard, a visualizer or shingles on the ground.

Hard to tell the color of your house, so added the colors below to help with suggestions.

You also mentioned there are sections with this color.

In addition to two paint colors, there is going to be the black metal…suggest a less harsh black shade and shingles that pull everything together. Hold off making decisions until you can test them with each other.

Left shade is a bit softer.

You cannot pick color from a computer screen. Get a package of the pewter gray, and whatever else you are considering, and lay them out on a couple sections of the roof. Several in those areas. Then stand back and check them out, multiple times a day, in all types of lighting.

Overgrowth?!? I swear HGTV has convinced the average American that landscaping should never be taller than 1 foot high 🙄.

All I see here is a manicured, well-kept yard and garden, likely tended by a skilled person. The hedge looks to be mostly providing interest where there is not much going on with the house facade. I could get on board with potential removal of the shrub on the far left only if you want to open up the view to the front door from the street.

Ask your roofer for a box of samples. @cat_ky is right. You need to see the shingles, on the roof, in different light - i.e. a sunny day, a cloudy day, etc. There are many shades of gray shingles. A deeper gray, without any hint of either blue or green, would work with your house.
