The Most Durable Roofing Materials We Recommend

At Whale Roofing, we offer a range of roof types built to last—combining performance, style, and efficiency. Whether you’re replacing an aging roof or building new, we’ll help you select from the best kinds of roofing materials for your home and climate. 

Metal Roofing — Resilient and Energy-Efficient

Metal roofs are known for their durability, fire resistance, and impressive lifespan of 40 to 70 years. They’re also reflective, which enhances roof insulation and reduces cooling costs—perfect for South Florida homes. 

Ideal for: Storm-prone zones, energy savings, minimal upkeep 

Ask Whale Roofing how a metal roof can protect your home and lower your energy bill. 

 

Slate Roofing — Timeless Beauty and Strength

Slate is one of the longest-lasting roofing materials, with a lifespan of 100+ years. It’s heavy, strong, and resists water, fire, and insects naturally. 

Ideal for: High-end homes, long-term investments, superior weather protection 

Get a slate roof installed by Whale Roofing and enjoy a lifetime of confidence. 

 

Tile Roofing — Stylish and Sturdy

Available in clay or concrete, tile roofs can last 50 to 100 years and hold up well in hot, humid climates. Their thermal properties improve roof insulation, keeping homes cooler and more efficient. 

Ideal for: Mediterranean-style homes, energy-conscious homeowners 

Let Whale Roofing help you choose tile roofing that blends strength and beauty.

We used Whale Roofing yesterday for a roof leak we found. After a home inspector identified the issue, Jacob came over to look into the repair. He agreed the issue was a bad seal at a pipe and sent his coworker over later the same afternoon for the repair. We paid $2500 for “two repair areas (said seal repair and an area under a cracked tile), one replaced tile and approximately 30 cracked roof tiles repaired”. The work was completed in a couple hours and the roof is sealed and ready for more Florida weather.We’re appreciative the work was done the same day as were in the summer rain season.

Wow, what a great job! Starts with communication, they had a start date and although it changed by one day, they always kept In touch. The ripoff of the old roof took two days and at the end of each day, the crew cleaned so well that you wouldn’t know they were there.The crew that installed battled heat and rain and still finished in 3 days.The job came out so well that my neighbors complemented the roof!A very professional job by a very professional company. Excellent work!

Thank you to Whale Roofing for the incredible job they did repairing my roof. Jacob Irvin from Whale Roofing came and gave me a detailed report and estimate. Once I approved the job the work was done in just a few days. Jacob was informative, professional and knowledgeable. I am extremely pleased with the work that was done at a very fair price. I was so pleased with the process I have referred his company to my brother and neighbor. I am so happy I chose Jacob Irvin from Whale Roofing. I am not dreading the next rainy day.

We would highly recommend Whale roofing if you’re considering a new roof. When Derek came to our home and explained the differences between his company and his competitors we knew his company offered a better value than other companies we received bids from. They protected our property before they began of any fallen debris and cleaned up beautifully. Everything was done in a timely manner and they communicated every phase of the installation. The workmanship was impeccable.
