Styling Strategies

How to Combine Colors on Your Build

You aren't restricted to a single color. Here are the three most popular design approaches our customers use:

Option 1

Monochrome (Single Color)

Roof, sides, and trim all share the same color (e.g. all Slate Blue or all Charcoal/Black). Creates a clean, streamlined modern commercial or contemporary residential appearance.

Popular for: Standard carports, modern workshops
Most Popular
Option 2

Contrast Roof & Trim

Pair light neutral walls (Pebble Beige, White, or Clay) with a darker accent roof and trim (Evergreen, Slate Blue, Earth Brown, or Black). Accents the residential A-frame roofline.

Popular for: Garages, RV covers beside homes
Option 3

Two-Tone Wainscot

Adds a 3-foot darker wainscot panel along the bottom of the building walls (e.g. Barn Red or Earth Brown) with lighter siding above. Adds visual depth and conceals ground splash-back.

Popular for: Custom barns, commercial shops
Neighborhood Guidelines

HOA Approval & Matching Your House

One of the most frequent customer concerns is satisfying strict HOA architectural review committees or simply making sure the new structure doesn't look out of place next to the main house.

1

Choose an A-Frame Roofline

Avoid rounded standard roofs if your HOA requires a residential profile. Both Boxed-Eave (Horizontal A-Frame) and Vertical A-Frame match traditional pitched residential shingle roofs.

2

Coordinate With Trim & Gutters

Match your building’s trim to the fascia boards, window trim, or gutter color of your home, and select wall panels that complement your stucco or siding tone.

3

Pre-Submission Documentation

We can provide a formal itemized quote specification detailing color codes, dimensions, and roof profile drawings to submit directly to your HOA committee for approval.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Colors

Can I mix and match colors for the roof, trim, and sides?

Yes. You can choose one solid color for the entire structure, or select different colors for the roof panels, corner/eave trim, side walls, and wainscot. There is typically no extra charge to mix standard colors.

How do I match my carport to my house or HOA requirements?

Many HOAs require metal structures to complement the main residence's color scheme or roofline. We offer neutral tones (Pebble Beige, Clay, Rawhide, Quaker Gray, White) and earth tones (Earth Brown, Slate Blue, Evergreen) that blend seamlessly with standard residential paint and composite shingle roofs.

What is Galvalume and how does it compare to painted panels?

Galvalume is an unpainted steel panel coated with an aluminum-zinc alloy that offers excellent corrosion resistance and heat reflectivity at a budget-friendly price. Painted panels receive a baked-on enamel finish formulated for UV resistance in high-sun regions.

Are the colors on screen 100% accurate?

Digital displays and lighting conditions can cause subtle color shifts. If an exact match is critical for an HOA review or home aesthetic, we can confirm paint codes or coordinate physical metal color samples.
