Making the Big Exterior Decisions

If you’ve built or renovated your home, you’ve likely given a lot of thought to where things will be placed within your home and what colors and styles you’re partial to. Exterior home decisions can be a little more tricky in that they’re not always obvious. Do you know what style of shingle you like best or what type of siding will hold up to your local elements?
