Light-colored shingles
(white, beige, light gray):

• Reflect sunlight 
• Keep your attic cooler in warm climates
• Pair beautifully with modern or coastal-style homes

Dark-colored shingles
(black, deep brown, charcoal):

• Absorb heat  (great for colder areas)
• Hide stains better (good for messy weather zones)
• Timeless and elegant—like your roof’s little black dress 

• Charcoal  – Clean, classic, and dramatic—hello, instant curb appeal.
• Puter Grey – Sleek, modern, and always in style.
• Weathered Wood – Rustic charm, perfect for cozy cabins or craftsman homes.
• Biscayne Blue – Coastal vibes and cool tones for a fresh, breezy look.
• Patriot Red  – Bold, Mediterranean-inspired, and eye-catching.
• Hunter Green  – Earthy, unexpected, and blends beautifully with nature.

GAF shingles come in a wide variety of colors and designs!

When choosing a shingle color, think of your house like an outfit:

• Light siding? Try contrast with dark shingles.
• Dark exterior? Light shingles pop and keep things fresh.
• Brick homes? Go with a color that pulls from the natural hues of the brick.

Bonus Tip: Look at sample shingles in natural light at different times of day. Shingles love playing tricks on you under clouds or shadows.

Choosing the right color isn't just about looks—it’s an investment:

• Boost resale value 
• Improve energy efficiency
• Complement your landscaping and surroundings
