Traditional Regional Roof Colors: Northeast
It's probably safe to say that the Northeast has some of the most traditional roof colors in our country.
Traditional roof colors in any area usually have something to do with the natural occurring products that are available in an area – such as slate tiles or wood shake shingles from trees.
According to our color expert, Kate Smith, "Homes in the Northeast tend to be clad in traditional colors with deeper or brighter accents. White with black shutters, gray with a red front door, or natural stain with green trim" are the tradition.
