Black is still the most popular roofing choice, but coppery brown tones are gaining traction in exterior home decor.

In addition to copper, multi-toned grey and green shingles are also up.

In Calgary , there’s definitely a mix, similar to other areas of the country, said Freddie Hamilton .

The key trend seems to be creating a cohesive, unified appearance that ties the home together.

Colour drenching is where homeowners want their roof to match or complement the exterior of their homes.

Some are choosing warmer tones to match earthier exteriors, while others are opting for a bit of contrast with bolder choices.
