Investing in new siding is a great way to elevate the look and increase the value of your home. One of the biggest decisions you need to make when planning your project is to choose boards or panels that complement the color of your window trim. Fortunately, with the help of an experienced siding contractor, you can make the right color selection for your home’s exterior.
Here are expert tips for matching siding color and window trim.
Using Matching VS Contrasting Colors
If you want to give your home a classic look, choose matching colors for your doors, windows, siding and the trim work around the siding’s edges. However, you can accentuate the best features of your home by using contrasting hues. While there are no strict rules about home exterior colors, you should consider your future goals when making your decision. For instance, if you are thinking about selling your home in the future, you want to go with neutrals because buyers usually prefer them.
Consider the Style of Your Home
Another thing to consider when choosing siding and window trim color is the style of your home. At Peninsula Siding Company, we install siding, available in a wide range of colors to complement all home styles. If you choose to go with a plain siding color, you can go for adorned windows for added appeal. It will also make your humble abode more welcoming.
Use Trim Colors Wisely
You should be more careful of your selection if you are planning to use at least two exterior colors in your home. To achieve a harmonious home exterior look, use the darkest shade on your first floor, the medium shade on the second floor, and the lightest on the third floor. Doing so will keep your house from looking too heavy on the top.
