Terracotta Shingle Color

Terracotta shingle color comes from CertainTeed and Owens Corning, both spelled Terra Cotta on the product, shown below.

Owens Corning runs brighter. CertainTeed sits deeper and browner.

Terracotta is a commitment. The two versions read far enough apart that choosing by name alone is a coin toss.

What Terracotta Looks Like on a Roof

Terracotta is the red orange end of the range. Two shingles carry it, and the gap between them is wide.

Duration Terra Cotta reads like new clay tile. Landmark Terra Cotta reads like weathered tile, closer to brown.

Terracotta questions.

Yes. CertainTeed Landmark and Owens Corning Duration both carry a Terra Cotta, spelled as two words. They are asphalt shingles in a clay tile color, not tile.

No. These are asphalt architectural shingles colored to read like clay. They weigh a fraction of tile and install on a standard shingle deck.

Owens Corning Duration Terra Cotta. CertainTeed Landmark Terra Cotta is deeper and browner.

Cream, warm white, sand and adobe stucco all work. Gray and blue siding fight it, since the roof carries strong orange and cool siding pushes against that.
