Try Colors for Your Two-Tone Siding with Our Home Color Tool

Let’s say you’re planning to replace your siding and have always wanted to try a two-tone color scheme. What happens, however, when you start having second thoughts about whether or not it will work with your home’s look?

We understand the feeling. Not all of us have vivid imaginations or the ability to draw detailed illustrations. Fortunately, leading manufacturing company James Hardie® has Home Color Tool, an online tool that helps you mix and match color combinations for your siding in Portland, Oregon.

To begin using the Home Color Tool, simply enter your zip code to display the available colors in your area. You’re now four easy steps away from finding the color combination for your siding replacement in Portland, OR:

  1. Choose the main siding color. This will be the dominant color you will use for your palette. A handy menu at the top groups the colors into warm, fresh, cool, dark, light and neutral.
  1. Choose a home style. At this stage, you can select the home style illustration that is closest to yours.
  1. Choose accents. This is where you can mix and match your color combinations by selecting the accent (i.e. the secondary color in your palette) and trim colors under the custom palette tab. You can also choose from tried-and-true color combinations (as curated by James Hardie’s experts) by clicking on the Curated Palettes tab. You’ll also have additional options for coloring the roof, windows, and front door. If you want to try a different main color, simply click “Back” at the bottom of the page, or click “1. Main Color” in the progress bar at the top.
  1. Save and share. Found the combination for your siding in Lake Oswego, OR? Save it for future reference or share it with your friends! Enter a name for your combination, then save it into My Idea Center (a James Hardie account is required, but you can login using your existing Facebook or Twitter account), share it on your Facebook timeline, or send it via email. You can also click on “Get a Quote” and your palette will be sent to up to three siding installers in your area, who will get in touch with you to provide a pricing estimate.

You can get inspiration for two-tone color combinations from various home improvement, travel and fashion magazines, and websites. As long as the siding color is available, we can combine it for you.
