Jul 30, 2025While your home siding’s main function is to protect your house from the outside elements, its purpose goes beyond just that.
“Most of us would describe a home by its color first and foremost,” said Wendy Cline, co-owner of J & B Construction. “In 2025, homeowners are choosing their siding colors to showcase their style, boost their house’s curb appeal, and harmonize with the environment.”
Set the tone and highlight your home with the following trendy siding colors:
Gray Area
The hues that top the list in terms of the most popular siding colors this year are warm neutrals, such as taupe, greige (gray and beige), soft sand, and soft lavender gray.
“Warm neutrals give any home an inviting and cozy look, but also evoke elegance and timelessness,” Wendy said.
Neutrals are a great choice for many, as they are versatile shades and can blend in with an array of surroundings, especially in suburban and rural spaces. Another benefit is that these tones reflect heat, keeping a house cooler in the summer months.
Green with Envy
“With the growing desire to connect to nature, earthy greens like olive, sage, and deep forest are popular hues,” Wendy said. “They automatically focus our minds on sustainability and the environment.”
These green tones give homeowners a sense of calm and peace. They also complement the landscaping while allowing a seamless transition between the home and the outside scenery.
Feeling Blue
Whether in a modern or traditional home, blue shades like navy, slate, or midnight blue add depth, mystery, and sophistication without overwhelming the outside of the home. For an even more unique look, consider opting for a misty blue, which could bring charm to the home.
“Deep blues are forgiving when it comes to dirt and grime, so blue siding becomes a more practical choice when it comes to maintenance,” said Wendy.
Paint the Town Red
Red will never go out of style, and some homeowners opt for shades like brick red, terracotta, burgundy, or even plum.
“The feeling red siding gives a home is two-fold,” Wendy said. “It screams elegant, bold, and energetic, but it is also an inviting, warm, and traditional color.”
Black Tie
While perhaps peculiar, black has also become a trendy siding color. It gives drama to houses of various styles, from contemporary to classic.
“Black exudes confidence,” said Wendy. “If black siding is paired with light accent colors, it can make a home look sleek and modern.”
Two Tones
While one-color siding is classic, a common practice in 2025 has become breaking monotony and choosing a combination of hues.
“This option creates depth and visual interest, and it also gives the homeowner a chance to display a little bit more of their personality,” Wendy said.
Most homes that pull off this trend well have light upper siding and dark lower siding, such as a light gray atop a dark one, white on top and navy on the bottom, or taupe above an earthy green.
