Choosing the right shingle color isn’t just about curb appeal—it’s about protecting your investment, improving energy efficiency, and adding personality to your home. At MLG Roofing, we help homeowners across Brevard and Indian River County make smart, stylish roofing choices that stand up to Florida’s unique climate.

🎨 1. Match the Style of Your Home

Your roof makes up nearly 40% of your home’s visible exterior—so coordination matters.

• Traditional homes (Colonial, Cape Cod): Choose classic colors like black, gray, or dark brown.
• Modern or coastal homes: Light gray, sandy beige, or subtle blue tones complement these designs.
• Brick homes: Use contrast—gray or black shingles look stunning against red or tan bricks.

☀️ 2. Consider Florida’s Heat and Sunlight

Florida’s sunshine is no joke. Lighter-colored shingles—such as tan, white, or light gray—can reflect UV rays and reduce attic temperatures. This may even help lower your energy bills.

📍 3. Factor in Your Neighborhood & HOA

Some HOAs limit the color palette to maintain a cohesive neighborhood look. Before making your final choice, check with your HOA. We’ll help guide you through approval during your free inspection.

📸 4. Use Shingle Samples & Visualizer Tools

Seeing is believing. We provide real shingle samples so you can evaluate them in natural light. We also offer roof visualizer tools—upload a photo of your home and test different color combinations.

🌧️ 5. Plan for Stains and Longevity

Florida’s humidity leads to algae growth and discoloration over time. Darker shingles do a better job hiding these stains. Choose products with algae-resistant warranties for extra protection.
