Need help picking a color for roof shingles

Driftwood or weathered wood goes best with your brick

I think driftwood is the best choice for your brick, but either will look nice

These were my final two options when I replaced roof at previous house after Ida. I think I ultimately decided on Weathered Wood

Your roofer would know better! My roofer picked out my color. Much of the same when I built houses, my painter did it, most times.
One of the folks from this board bought a house, ask me to get my painter to meet with him and his wife. We got to the house before them, my painter took one look at the brick, pulled a can of paint out the back of his truck, painted a section on the house. Then the couple drove up, looked at the color, said we like it, done.

Roofer is probably a sketch if he’s pushing gaf

Dear baby Jesus... don't pick green shingles.

Get a different brand that’s cheap junk

Like other posters have said, do NOT use GAF. If your roofer is pushing that shingle, get another roofer.

Some roofer say they don't carry xyz brand of shingles but smaller mom and pop roofers don't generally carry any brand. They get their shingles from a supply house as needed. Often times they get incentives by using the same brand. Some of the shady guys also don't want your roof to last very long so you need/want another roof sooner rather than later.

I've actually had some roofer tell me he would never use a good shingle because he is working himself out of a job. He primarily used GAF.

My only concern with OC is their warranty is crap. Had a client who had a warranty claim they approved. They sent him a voucher for the shingles. No money for tear off, felt, nails, labor, hip and ridge. Nothing.
