 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Whale Roofing from start to finish. David came out to look at our home, went over the quote with us, and was quick to answer every question. He also helped us choose our tile. Everything went smoothly once planning got underway, including permits and the HOA approval, and the team kept us updated the whole time.
The tear-off crew worked fast and left things tidy. Every crew cleaned up after themselves and hauled away debris, so our yard stayed clean. Whenever we had a question, Jacob and Derek were available and professional.
Roof was completed beautifully and inspections and permits completed and closed.
We got pictures of the whole process from start to finish.
We're thrilled with our new roof! Thank you Whale Roofing Team!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish, the entire team at Whale was exceptional. We had gotten quotes from several other roofing companies, but Whale's initial communication, presentation, and proposal stood out among the competition. Their pricing was fair and competitive, and they not only met expectations but exceeded them. Their workmanship was efficient, meticulous, and professional. We were kept informed every step of the way and really cannot believe how easy it all ended up being. We love our new roof and solar fan! Would highly recommend over and over again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Whale Roofing to repair a leak in our tile roof in Delray Beach, and I can't recommend them enough. After collecting quotes from several companies in the area, Whale stood out from the very first visit: they were the only company that actually got into the attic to inspect the problem from the inside, instead of just looking at the roof from above.

That thoroughness showed in everything they did. They found the real cause of the leak — a failed gooseneck vent — explained every detail before quoting, and gave us the most reasonable price we received, by a good margin. And the price they quoted is the price we paid: no extras, no surprises, no upsell, even though the job included replacing rotted wood.

Afterwards, Jacob, their VP, personally walked me through every item they had done. Honest diagnosis, fair price, quality work, and a company that stands behind every word: if you have a roof leak in South Florida, make sure Whale is one of the companies you call.

Their cleanliness and professionalism is top notch. I will recommend them to all of my neighbors. The communication from Jacob and the rest of the team was impressive! The roof looks great!

Slate Roof Replacement FAQs

How long does a slate roof last?

A properly installed Vermont slate roof can last 75-100 years, making it one of the longest-lasting roofing materials available — far exceeding shingle (25-30 years) or even tile (50+ years). Slate’s exceptional longevity comes from its natural stone composition, which resists weathering, UV damage, and moisture penetration far better than manufactured materials. With proper installation and occasional maintenance of flashing and underlayment, a slate roof can genuinely last multiple generations.

What is Vermont slate?

Vermont slate is natural stone quarried specifically from Vermont’s slate belt, long regarded as some of the highest-quality roofing slate in the world. It’s prized for its consistent density, minimal water absorption, and exceptional durability compared to slate sourced from other regions. We use 100% natural Vermont slate on every installation because of its proven track record in demanding climates, including the heat, humidity, and storm exposure found here in South Florida.

How much does a slate roof cost?

Slate roof replacement costs more upfront than shingle, metal, or tile due to the material cost, specialized installation skill required, and the additional structural considerations slate’s weight demands. However, given its 75-100 year lifespan and minimal maintenance needs, slate often works out to be one of the most cost-effective roofing materials over the long run when measured per year of service. We provide a detailed, transparent estimate during your free inspection based on your roof’s size, complexity, and chosen slate style.

Is a slate roof worth the investment?

For homeowners planning to stay in their property long-term or who value a roof that will genuinely outlast typical ownership, slate is one of the strongest investments available. Beyond its multi-generational lifespan, slate is fire-resistant, low-maintenance, and adds significant architectural value and curb appeal that few other roofing materials can match. It also tends to hold value well, since a slate roof is frequently seen as a premium feature by future buyers.

What colors of slate are available?

We offer Vermont slate in gray, green, purple, black, and multi-color blends, along with a range of thickness options from 3/16″ to 3/4″ depending on the architectural look and performance profile you want. Because slate is a natural stone, some color variation within a single roof is normal and expected — this is part of what gives a slate roof its unique, authentic character rather than a flaw to avoid.
