They were attentive and really open about all fees and what to expect! I would recommend them to any of my family and friends. It is nice to know it is a family owned company. Their end product is amazing and they were so polite on the job! They truly exceeded every expectation! I would not recommend anyone else for your roofing needs!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike provided me with an thorough and detailed estimate for our roof, complete with drone shots. The crew worked efficiently in the 90+ degree weather over two days to replace my roof. Kenny was the project manager and was very helpful and informative in coordinating the job throughout the whole process. The crew did an excellent job in cleaning up during the job and afterwards. The overall company was very professional and easy to work with, and I would recommend them to anyone looking to get a new roof. Whalen Exteriors is a class act in the roofing business!
