Onyx Black Roof FAQ

Is a black roof a good idea?

Black roofs are among the most popular choices in North America because they create maximum curb appeal contrast and pair with nearly any exterior. The main consideration is heat: dark roofs absorb more solar energy, which matters more in hot climates and less with well-ventilated attics or reflective metal coatings.

What does an onyx black roof look like on a house?

Onyx Black creates a bold, high-contrast roofline that makes light siding pop. To see it on your own home instead of a stock photo, upload a photo to RoofRender and it renders an onyx black roof on your actual house in about 20 seconds.

Onyx black vs charcoal roof — which should I pick?

Pick Onyx Black for maximum drama and contrast, especially against white or light siding. Pick Charcoal if you want nearly the same dark effect but softer, with more visible material texture. Rendering both on a photo of your home is the fastest way to decide.
