Quick answer

Use the Owens Corning DESIGNEyeQ visualizer to preview shingle colors on a home like yours, then have us bring physical sample boards to your free inspection — screen color and daylight color are never the same.

How do I preview shingle colors on my own house?

Quick answer

Open Owens Corning DESIGNEyeQ, pick a home style or upload a photo, then compare shingle blends against your brick, siding and trim.

We bring the real sample boards to every free inspection — daylight beats a screen every time.

What color should I pick for a Midlands home?

Quick answer

Match the undertone of your brick, not the trim. Cool gray brick wants Estate Gray or Onyx Black; warm red or tan brick wants Driftwood or Desert Tan.

Two local considerations: our humidity grows black algae streaking, so an algae-resistant granule blend matters more than color, and darker roofs hide the streaking that does appear. Bring us your HOA color list if you have one and we will tell you which approved options are actually in stock this season.

Frequently asked questions

How does the roof visualizer work?

Owens Corning DESIGNEyeQ lets you drop shingle colors onto a photo of a home — either a stock home similar to yours or an uploaded photo of your own — so you can see Onyx Black next to Driftwood before committing.

Which shingle colors are most popular in the Midlands?

Estate Gray, Driftwood and Onyx Black dominate Lexington and Richland county neighborhoods. Lighter blends hide pine debris better; darker blends hide algae streaking better.

Can you bring physical samples?

Yes. Screens lie about color. We bring full shingle sample boards to the free inspection and hold them against your brick and trim in daylight.
