siding color help

we would like to replace our siding but i am not sure what color might look best. we have a split level which is mostly brick except for the top and some of the back of our house which is siding. right now the siding color is white and we have black shutters (which will come down), and a cranberry door. our fence we are getting installed will also be white PVC. However, i feel like most houses on the block have the same look, same split, w/ the white siding and so I wanted to explore other colors. Our roof is a lighter tan color so I think another tan siding color may clash. I also was told that the siding "should match the brick". Would anyone have any ideas or share experiences if you have a partly brick house with siding? TIA!

Re: siding color help

when my mom got her siding done a few years ago she matched it to her roof, not the brick. i think any color will look nice with the brick. my mom wound up getting a tan color to go with her reddish colored roof.

do you have a company already? they should give you their colors and suggestions. i might have to take a drive by to give you better advice!

I love the color of our siding - we used Alside Country Sage - It is a Green Gray color

East Coast Dormer - ASk for Patrick Liquori - Tell him Scott from Levittown sent you. He and his crew did an excellent job. They also installed my down stairs windows and replaced termite damaged wood for us on the wall
