Things to Consider When Using Multiple Siding Profiles

Choosing the right material, profile and color of your new siding is important if you want to increase your home’s curb appeal and value. You can even mix and match different siding profiles to keep things interesting. However, mixing and matching siding profiles should be done carefully. Here’s why.

Color Considerations

A typical color scheme for a home exterior contains three colors: for the body, trim and accent. But some homes may be able to use more than three colors. You have the option to choose a warm, cool or neutral color scheme.

Also, if your roofing is in good condition, and you have no plans of replacing it anytime soon, make sure the color of your siding complements it. Consider also the existing colors around your home before selecting the siding color.

Texture

Using siding with different textures can create a unique look for your home.

Playing With Profiles

You can choose one siding for the main body of the house and a different siding profile for your dormer or gable to highlight it.

Tips

While combining different textures, colors and profiles can add uniqueness to your home, there is also the possibility of over doing it.

You may want to focus on just two things at a time. If you want to use two different profiles with different textures, then you may want to keep the color the same or at least use a color within the same family.
