What is the best color for the roof of my house?

That would depend on what color you want the rest of the house to be, and the climate in your area. You might also want to consider the shape of your roof, what it will look like when viewed from the ground.

Is one color better at keeping the heat off the roof?
user
It is possible to paint a color that reflects more sunlight and cools more rapidly, but this can be rather expensive.
assistant

user
To maximize solar reflectance, a pure white or silver coating would be ideal.

That makes a lot of sense.
