Renovating or building a house can be an overwhelming and very stressful job for every homeowner. There are often so many decisions that need to be made about every part of the renovation or build that it often leads to wrong decisions or bad choices.
When it comes to making some of those decisions you will have to live with them for a lifetime. Often those decisions about flooring, windows, roofing, siding, kitchens, etc can be so costly that you simply just have to live with your decision.
A lot of those building and renovation decisions come down to style, function, and color. For 
example when you are renovating your exterior and you are deciding what siding to go with, picking the right color can make all the difference in the world with how it will appear. After all the curb appeal of your property is one of the best ways to fix up your house and add value to your property.
Phoenix Siding & Gutters provides exterior siding services on Vancouver Island and we often consult with clients regarding what siding and what color siding to go with. One of the siding we work with is Jamies Hardie Plank siding, a cement fibre board that offers quality, versatility, and a quality exterior finish. James Hardie has recently launched a new tool to help you decide what color to pick.
The tool helps you discover curated color combinations and allows you to catch a glimpse of your potential façade before making a decision. You can see your home clad in fade-resistant ColorPlus® Technology hues such as soothing Boothbay Blue, rich Countrylane Red, or stylish Navajo Beige lap siding, vertical siding or shingles (or a combination of hundreds of color and style combinations) before you commit to one that will likely clad your home for years.
It’s astounding and inspiring how much a splash of color or a new style of siding can truly transform the look of your exterior. So play around, see what sticks. You can preview curated palettes to help you make a decision and even change the color of the roof, windows and door to add accents. Before zeroing in on your fresh look, save your favorite palette picks to share with design-savvy friends and your contractor or builder to get their input.
