Whispering Hills was a separate town during the first years of the space program and was folded into Titusville in the early 1960s, when the city was absorbing its neighbors to keep up with the people arriving for Apollo. The name stays on the streets it was built on: a grid of concrete block ranch homes from the late 1950s and 1960s, one story, low hip and gable roofs, carports that were later closed in, and Florida rooms with flat roofs that were added in the 1970s.
Every house on these streets is on the same schedule. The original shingle went in the 1960s, the second roof in the 1980s, the third in the late 1990s or after the 2004 storms, and that third roof is the one the insurance letters are about. Under it is plank decking that has been nailed through three times.
This site connects Whispering Hills homeowners with an independent local roofing contractor by phone. It does not perform the work.
A leak where the flat Florida-room roof meets the pitched roof is the most common roof repair call on these streets. A 1998 shingle roof with a renewal letter is a roof inspection with a written report. A roof that is done is an older home roofing job that prices the boards before tear-off.
Whispering Hills addresses are inside the Titusville city limits, so permits go through the city's building department rather than the county's. When you call, say the year the house was built and whether the carport or Florida room has been closed in, because those additions usually carry a different roof age from the main house.
