I think a medium shade of gray would work with the trim and roof colour. Don’t paint the roof black, it will attract the heat and your house will be hot and also the sun will peel the paint eventually, causing more maintenance for you to look good. Green is a hard colour to look good with your roof, so stick to white or a shade of grey. ( Beige would work too). You guys are doing a great job!👍

You can tell that Freddie is a true caregiver, I hope Rodrigo realizes what a peach he's got! And I love how she throws herself into absolutely everything she does.

Don't change the roof, we all love it!

I vote for a white body on the house. Black/white/turquoise/stained wood - beautiful!!! Black trim around doors and windows - very sharp. And of course decks front and back of the a frame. You could even build a workshop below the back deck and gradually build it out! Just a thought as you already use it for storage and should plan stacking/organizing solutions Looking so nice, great to see some RnR in Costa Rica!

Love the wood trim... It adds charm to the outside of the home greatly. When I googled colors that match it said Blues, Grey's, Tan, all will match your current colors of green, grey and wood. Please do not change the color of the roof. Any paint in it will require quite a lot of maintenance as the weather chips it.

Black roof will make it hotter inside. Any dark color will make it hotter!

Your next project should be… Digging out a foot and a half underneath your house, and pouring a concrete slab. This way you can have a great place for you to do your construction work, and she can have an art studio.

I agree with Freddie black roof is a bad idea. Better to paint it white to reflect the sun and keep the inside cool. Black will make it hot inside. I like the light grey too. Great job house is looking really good!

Hard to believe it’s been 10 months already! And yet it seems like a forever relationship. You two are the very best!

Yes , I agree that gray would be a good color. Don't paint the roof, leave it the color it is, it's so cool looking.

The dogs literally smile when they get love from Freddie ❤ I would cry too, if I saw monkeys happily free and wild in my yard, that’s super cool Freddie. People who can truly appreciate animals, the way that you do, are good people…you’re good people Freddie 🤗 You’re my kind of people!

Rodrigo, Freddie, I love your videos and have been a subscriber from the start of this channel. I have a suggestion for you. Dig out the underside of the house and create a DRY working area for the rainy days. Dig it deep enough that Freddie doesn't bump her head and can stand up completely. In other words, dig a basement. ❤ Love you guys ❤️

Love your blue roof, definitely a signature color 💙 and maintenance free ... something to think about ...

No black roof. You don't need the added heat. White or gray would look fantastic on your siding. I love how well you guys work together. Shows how compatible you two really are.

The wooden boards on the outside look so great. You have both done a wonderful job. So much rain… look forward to seeing it finished.

Gray is a color to complement the blue-green roof & the wood pieces. No black roof. Your house is looking good!

Nothing quite like living in the rainforest. I remember the battle to get our laundry dry.

I think you should leave the roof the same color. I love the green color

Dark colors absorb heat (also attracts mosquitoes). You do not want a black roof in that climate. Just my 2 cents lol. Take a sample or pic of each color (roof and wood) take to paint store to match a great color. Keep up the great job…Much love guys.

Making good progress, even in the rain! Roger full of beans and the dog snoring is hysterical. You both are working so hard and love following your progress and your little homestead is a gem!🌻

Black absorbs heat, white reflects. I love your green roof! Light greys, with accents of black and wood are very fetching! Pale peach, or yellow would work. Dark blue, or darker green, or black on the walls would be interesting as well!

Liveable is a good word for what you're trying to say. Liveable means more appealing, comfortable, enjoyable to live in or with. The trim creates a more Liveable appearance or feel to the home.

The expression in the USA for good to live in would be “homey” meaning it feels like home and it feels very friendly and inviting to be there. Cozy is another choice, like being sheltered inside your home on a wet rainy day. Cozy means it feels wrapped around you in protection, comfortable, safe and welcoming and it is exactly the right place to be in a storm!

The hardware store has color wheels that help you figure out colors that go well together.

Nice work, you guys! You definitely need a space for Freddie to do the wood prep, maybe tie down the tarp so that the rain won't make it collapse. I love how Freddie appreciates all of the wildlife that she sees! Please, don't paint the roof black, that color attracts the sun and your house will become an oven when the sun is shining. For house colors, white, or medium gray, or light mushroom would be nice.

Black roof is a very bad idea. When it's hot, it will attract the heat and make it very un your house. Amd YES... LIVABLE is a word👍🏼😉

I love the roof color!! Paint your house a white, or a grey! It will blend in with the beautiful wood tongue and grove, and still make the roof pop❤ You two did a ton of work this episode! Crazy to see Rodger climb a ladder, don't think I've seen a cat do that! How exciting to see monkeys❤!!!! What a blessed location to live! Keep dry you both! Have a blessed week!

With Freddie on this one..Black roof will heat up like hot box!

Rodrigo and Freddie. We really enjoy the show since Freddie arrived. She's added so much life to the show and has great design and style. You're discussing painting the house. Listen up. LEAVE THE ROOF ALONE. THE COLOR IS PERFECT FOR THE TROPICAL AREA! RODRIGO, BLACK IS A TERRIBLE IDEA! THE PERFECT COLOR FOR YOUR HOME IS YELLOW. IT GOES PERFECT WITH THE TEAL COLOR ON THE ROOF AND THE NATUAL WOOD TRIM AND BLACK METAL TRIM. IT WILL BE BRIGHT AND LIVELY. THEN, ADD PLANTS TO THE BALCONY AND AROUND THE HOUSE. You should also consider taking the corner of the house with the highest elevation UNDER THE HOUSE. Clean it all out, build a room and store all your lumber and supplies out of the rain. it looks big enough to have a work shop OUT OF THE RAIN. When everything else is done, please clean out UNDER THE HOUSE. Thanks to Freddie, it looks like Rodrigo is completing some projects! Finish projects and then move on. Keep up the good work guys. We pray for you and wish you much success. Judy &Jerry

IMPORTANT!!!! Hey guys can you please weld crossbeams under the house |x|x| because it is really in danger to fall down. The poles are oke but thin for the windcatch off the a frame. When you have crossbeams that risk is gone. Please guys i care. Greetings from the netherlands

You two are getting better and better and better at producing EXCELELLENT, multi-dimensional content-- on so many levels. When you involve us in your creative and problem-solving processes, simultaneously it is educational, inspiring, entertaining, and intermittent precious doses of humor make me smile and laugh. I wouldn't worry about how long this takes. This is what you have chosen as a profession -- the longer it takes, the more adept and creative you become. The longer it takes, the more content you will produce. As to color of siding, it's not about "matchiing," it's about complementing -- and I agree with Freddie - a lovely gray will complement all that you have going. Sigue adelante!!! A+++++ 👋👋👋👋👋❤❤❤💚💜

No black roof and a pale gray would look beautiful! The trim looks beautiful! Great jobs guys!❤

I learned a lesson from my parents. Always make the outside of your house maintenance free. If you paint the roof, then you will need to repaint it every so often. What a pain! Using wood on the sofits is another maintenance issue. In North America, we use mostly maintenance free vinyl or aluminum siding, which is vented to allow circulation throughout the eves. The wood you used is nice but will require maintenance. With the amount of rain and moisture in your jungle, you might have a full-time job maintaining it.

I think a light Terracotta color would look nice. Like the colors of Mexican tiles. It would go with the roof and the wooden boards.

Freddie the big flys called horse fly. Here in ohio...great job on you home. It's never ending job..😅

The turquoise roof is gorgeous! A black roof will attract and keep the heat. The grey works on the colour palette with turquoise, brown and black. Perhaps just a touch deeper grey would work. It keeps the facade light and airy, which works in the tropical clime...both to reflect heat, and to look fresh. Love all of the progress guys! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

I like the light gray with the existing roof and wood trim

Roger on the ladder what a Kodak moment. 😊

Stechfliege Bremse = horsefly! Toll, was Ihr beiden Süssen in jedem Eurer Videos auf die Beine stellt! Liebe Grüsse of a German elderly lady (76) living next to the Northsea (1 km) not far away from southern Denmark

color for the roof: black absorbs the heat from the sun while lighter colors (white) reflect it back toward Jordan's house. better yet, just cover the entire roof with solar panels and never worry about electricity again

I think you should make the shed bigger so you have a work space while you're building especially during rainy season

The green roof is great! Maybe a sandy beige would look nice on the house :)

The regular rain is so frustrating. A solution would be to build a deck out the back, making the most of the view. Then put some roofing material directly under the deck with a slight slope towards the outside edge. Level the ground and you have an undercover work area plus a beautiful viewing deck.

Rod, could you add clear roof panels to the outside seating area so you get the light and feel of an open space, but keep it a dry space to help battle the rain and keep progress going? Also extending the rear porch would give you an amazing place to sit and a dry area underneath? Keep up the great work!!

The roof color is perfect, black would be very hot. Light brown tan

Coffee is fun and chemically stimulating but the stress vitamins, the B vitamins are in beans, meat, healthy carbs like potatoes and oatmeal. Exhaustion, depression is from low B vitamins. B 100s can be taken. You guys are working so hard, don't wear out depending on Coffee 😘😘😘😘 PS Freddy I'm vegan...mostly!

You should place some clear corrugated roofing on that picnic area/patio

The existing roof color is gorgeous..the grey is really attractive maybe a little darker? And I agree.. please don't paint the roof black it will make it super hot and you'll have to maintain it more!!

The black roof I feel will be bad ideal because it will draw the heat from the sun. Will make your home so hot inside 🥵 the blue roof is so nice and the gray out side home will look good with black frame on the windows and trim to match your rails. An industrial modern look is suitable for your home ❤️❤️ but that just my opinion 😊☕️🙏🏽

A Dark Blue Teal (color code 6371) would look so nice. Check it out beside the rest of the materials, including the wood and the roof color. Great job guys, it's looking so good. What a difference it makes. Keep it up. Love and be safe!😘🤗🌼ve

no black roof!! it's a gorgeous blue. yes, a gentle slate grey that has some blue in it would match perfectly,. you are both adorable and the house is coming along beautifully ,bless.xx

A nice powder blue color would look really nice with the color of your roof

Rod, Freddie.You both kick Butt great Job both of you.Can't wait to see the finish Job.❤Nana Raquel.And welcome back from your Trip happy you had a great Trip.See you both on Sunday.Or maybe before that.🤗. Keep doing good on Lola's farm with the animals,and the Greenhouse with your Plants growing great.❤.Nana Raquel.

Keep the blue roof! You guys are doing well with keeping everything cohesive. 😊 The house could be a slightly darker slate grey or a light tan (closer to sand maybe? 🤔) I think to tie in the underside of the roof is to have the outside trim match! I also saw another comment mention digging out a BASEMENT! For a dry working space for when it rains! I think you guys are doing amazing, keep up the great work~ Edit- please tell Freddy that “livable” is a word and her definition is correct 😂👍🏼

Welcome back from your travels. The doggie massage therapy was so funny. Very clever solution for the framing. I hope sealing the wood keeps it from needing to be replaced in couple of years. That's a LOT of rain. More than we had to deal with in Florida and I thought that was soggy. Keep after it.

Black will make the roof hot 😊

I wouldn’t advise painting the roof anytime because if and when it starts to peel off it will be a lot to maintain. You should paint the house before putting all the wood trim on as now you have to be careful so you don’t get paint on the wood Your both doing an amazing job love watching your progress and happiness

A black roof will absorb the heat and be miserable in the summer…grey would look nice for the house but you need to keep the roof turquoise! It is perfect!

Rodrigo and Freddie, I think you should paint the A FRAME A SLATE COLOR.. DARK GRAY... I THINK IT WOULD MAKE THE WOOD COLOR POP AND WOULD LOOK SO GOOD WITH THE ROOF❤ 💯💯💯💯 IF YOU PAINT IT GREEN IT WILL NOT MATCH WITH THE COLOR OF ROOF THAT YOU HAVE BECAUSE IT IS A VERY UNIQUE COLOR... I THINK THE SLATE WOULD BE SUCH AN AMAZING CONTRAST WITH THE COLOR OF THE WOOD AND THE COLOR OF THE ROOF✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼💯💯💯 MAKE A BOARD WITH DIFFERENT COLORS THAT YOU LIKE AND HOLD THEM AGAINST THE WOOD AND THE COLOR OF THE ROOF. THIS IS WHAT I DID TO MY HOME WHEN I WAS CHOOSING COLORS... IM SURE YOU TWO WILL PICK THE MOST AMAZING COLOR FOR YOUR HOME BUT PLEASE CONSIDER THE SLATE/ DARK GRAY COLOR ❤ LOVE AND SO MANY BLESSINGS TO YOU ALL ❤️🙏❤️

OMYGOSH! The dog snoring is hilarious 😂

Rodrigo, green blue is called Aqua and it goes wonderfully with wood color. Omg, don’t color the roof black, you will suffer the heat! Be careful working on the long latter upstairs, especially when it rains, for fear of slipping and falling. Use a safety rope tied around you! I’m not your moma, but like a good older brother advice. Don’t be stubborn, do it in a dry day. It better to be safe then sorry.

Here are a couple of Options: 1) You should extend your back deck 3 or more meters. that way you can work on projects when it rains. Of course, make it so you will not get wet and you can stand. 2) set up your gazebo to work with the tarp, where the water will not pool or use a waterproof tarp/covering. 3) Make another gazebo by the water tank to work under with a covering. As well, make a couple of extra saw-horses

Paint the siding dark gray. It will go excellent with the bluegreen roof and the stain of the wood!!!!!

Leave it painted light gray, it matches all surfaces

Frankly I like that tropical turquoise color on the roof. But no DARK color! You’ll attract HEAT & boil inside…especially upstairs.

A charcoal grey on the exterior of the house would be lovely and black on the roof would attract too much heat during the summertime, bad idea. You guys are a lovely couple. Stay authentic.

Black absorbs and holds heat. White reflects heat. Keep that in mind when choosing the colors of your home. I think you should keep the roof the beautiful color it is, teal. The wood soffitt trim is beautiful. Maybe a black or white for the house color? I don't know, but, whatever you choose, I am sure it will be beautiful as well. Much love from Florida.

Agree with some others. Medium grey for the roof and light grey for the rest of the house with the wood trim would look BEAUTIFUL. Maybe dark grey for windows trim or the same stain wood that matches what you are currently doing.🥰❤️

Black soaks up heat and when it is hot and sunny out it will be awful sweaty in the house.

The snoring doggy is so cute! Have you 2 checked into grout stain remover yet? It's better than replacing the messed up title.

I LOVE the finishing touch on the inside of the roof!!! So nice!! I think the same shade of grey you painted the tarp room bench seats would be PERFECT for the house and it would match the tarp room when it's in it's normal state as a seating area!!! It's looking sooo good!!!

Charcoal grey for the exterior

The color of your roof is nice and characteristic.. I wouldn't change it! Plus it may be a bad idea to paint it with the weather you have on the farm! And I think it goes well with the colors you have already on the house exterior. White or light gray are my favourites for the walls but the most important thing is that you do what you like most! It's your house!❤

Good job, you 2 special people & fur babies!! The rain somewhat slowed you down, but despite that, you pressed on & accomplished so much, Rodrigo & Freddie!! Blessings!! 🇺🇸

Black would not be nice for the heat. I have a white roof to reflect the heat. I love the color of your roof. I vote to leave it. Love the new wood on the outside! Bringing your place together. The finishing touches.

Liveable is an English word Freddie you were correct in your usage of that term. I must admit I like the thought of a black roof, but leaving it green is ok too. As for your house colour, I think either white or grey, it will blend well with your wood trim and roof colour, even if it’s black or green. It’s lovely seeing you progress on the finishing touches.

Dark Grey would be Devine 🇿🇦

My vote would be taracotta for the front and back walls, probably a lighter shade.

My vote is keep the blue green signature color on the roof. You can use a warm white on the house, like Benjamin Moore's Simply White. It has a nice glow. Or use a cream color or light beige on the house if you want more color to it. All these colors go nicely w the green roof and natural wood. Well done. I look forward to each new video you make.

I like the grey you have now but it could go a little darker and still match everything. I also think it’s a bad idea to paint the roof black. Black will absorb the heat and your house will be constantly hot. Getting to tongue and groove in has really changed the look of the house. Great job guys!

The area most in need is that utility room near dining room. Then the bottom of house needs a wrap around with entrance on two sides

Freddie, “livable” is an English word! Don’t doubt your language skills😊. Great job by the way, the house is looking great!

I'd paint it that siding color yellow. It would go w green and the wood stain. That wood definitely makes it look alot more finished. Good job.

I agree, the light grey color looks good,

Gray will not clash and will look beautiful with the roof and ceiling colors.❤

I love the way Roger just climbs up the ladder 🪜😄 You place is coming together perfectly ❤️ You're very talented my brother 😍 and your other half has brought you so much joy and comfort, I can see that you really love each other 💕 Love you all 😊

I agree with Freddi,the gray is a good color for the outside. Your home gets Homier all the time! Looks great❤

A darker color of Gray will go great with all your colors. I think it would look super fine

I love it so far 😍 I think a darker gray for outside. Also, get some hanging plants to give it a more homey look. I love your videos. Freddie has blossomed there. I love how she loves all the animals ❤️

I would go with a charcoal Grey on the walls. Match the window trim to your other wood accents and leave the roof alone. Let the roof be your splash of color.

I know I don't comment often but I think a light beige would definitely look great color

I like what you did outside of house. Looks sharp. You should take a picture of house and put on computer and add different colors to outside. You could get an idea what it would look like. I can see big progress with each video. You are in rain season. Perhaps you might add another rain container for opposite side of house. You have two homes sharing a small water supply. Great job guys. Looking great. 😊

Saludos desde Chiapas, México. Hey Freddy I studied linguistics in Germany. In the U.S. the word for wohnlich is homey; and in GB, homely. Love your content! Einen schönen Tag wünsche ich euch, noch! Bis bald y bendiciones!

Grey is my vote. Maybe a bit darker than the current color. Looks great, guys!!

You could always go monochromatic & use aqua paint. Wow R & F your home is really looking amazing! Great job guys!!! Seeing the monkeys was a treat. Maybe they want to move into your old pad. You could tie down the corners of the tarp with bungee cords to temporarily hold it in place.

Should paint the front/back of the house first and then put up the overhang slats.

House WHITE, Then take a piece of your roof that's left over and take to paint store and have them make paint the same color as your roof, so you will have white house and trim paint the color of roof. Love from a short fat old lady from Michigan ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I think a shade of grey would look good for the outside of the home. Freddie is a beast for staining without gloves! Amazing work to the two of you!

I rather like the light grey. Don't forget a black roof will store and amplify the heat during the day making it hotter inside regardless of the insulation.
