I guess I’m kind of surprised I didn’t get a “We chose black, what do you think?” kind of phone call.

Anyway, what I’ve done (like most contractors I’d assume) is provided customers with the sample board from the roofing supply house. Customers look it over for a few days and then call me with a color.
