Local Conditions
Common roofing challenges across Delaware County
- Older stone and frame homes near the Glen Mills mill district, and the stone farmhouses around Newtown Square, carry steep, complicated rooflines. One failing valley or flashing detail can let water track deep into the structure before anyone sees a ceiling stain.
- The mid-to-late-20th-century homes in Echo Valley, Larchmont and Wyola sit on asphalt that has aged out two or three times over. Many were re-covered once with a second layer laid over the first, which hides whatever the deck is doing until the roof comes off.
- Subdivision building through the 1990s and early 2000s means a large share of Glen Mills roofs are reaching the 20-to-25-year mark together, right at the end of a typical architectural shingle's service life.
- Summer thunderstorms rolling east across the county drop hail and drive wind under shingle tabs, bruising the mat in ways a homeowner cannot spot from the ground.
- Mature tree canopy keeps north-facing slopes damp and drops limbs and leaves into valleys and gutters. Trapped moisture rots decking along the eaves, and winter freeze-thaw swings form ice dams on older homes that were never built with modern ice-and-water underlayment.
About the Area
About Delaware County, PA
Delaware County was split from Chester County in 1789 and borders Philadelphia to its northeast, with Media as its county seat. It is the third-smallest county in Pennsylvania by area, about 184 square miles of land, and the fifth most populous, with 576,830 residents at the 2020 census across 49 municipalities. Nathaniel Newlin's grist mill, built in Glen Mills in 1704, still stands, and Newtown Square's stone farmhouses date to the 1800s, with postwar housing filled in around them. Those eras roof differently and fail differently, which is why we walk every roof before we quote it.
Permit requirements for roof work vary from one municipality to the next across the county's 49 municipalities, so confirm what applies with your local building department before any tear-off starts.

Every one of them five stars. These are real, unedited reviews left by homeowners on Google.
They did an outstanding job on our roof. The crew Chris assembled, were punctual and very respectable of our property. On time no nonsense work crew.
It’s so hard to find a good and honest roofer out there. … Our roof turned out spectacular and we were amazed how efficient they were.
Replacing a roof due to hail damage is a bummer. … I need to understand each step of the process, both technically and financially. CE more then met that requirement.
Fortunately, Clear Exteriors were in my neighborhood and once they got involved everything went smooth. They know Roofs …
100% customer focused and detail oriented business. This company could not have been easier to work with. Extremely helpful in processing my insurance claim.
Amazing experience with the entire staff. Phil and Stephen do a wonderful job of working with you through the whole process.

Good to Know
Delaware County roofing: frequently asked questions
Do you serve all of Delaware County?
We work Glen Mills, Concord Township and Newtown Square from our West Chester office. If your home is somewhere else in the county, call and we'll tell you honestly whether it is in range.
Who issues a roofing permit in Delaware County?
In most of Pennsylvania the township or borough handles building permits: the state's Department of Labor & Industry says more than 90 percent of its 2,562 municipalities administer and enforce the Uniform Construction Code locally. Newtown Township lists re-roofing among the projects that need a permit, and its building department is at 209 Bishop Hollow Road, 610-356-0200. Glen Mills is a mailing name, so the permit there comes from whichever township the house is actually in. Call the office for your own address before the tear-off.
Will my insurance cover a roof replacement in Delaware County?
If the damage came from a sudden hail or wind event it is frequently a covered loss, while ordinary age and wear are not. We inspect, photograph the storm damage, and meet your adjuster on site so everything legitimate is accounted for.
My home is from the 1970s or 1980s. Repair or replace?
Homes from that era are often on aging three-tab shingle, sometimes with a second layer on top. Once a roof is at or past twenty to twenty-five years, targeted repairs tend to be throwing good money after bad. A free inspection gives you a straight answer.
Are you registered to work in Delaware County, PA?
Yes. Clear Exteriors LLC holds Pennsylvania Home Improvement Contractor registration PA179710, and we are a GAF Master Elite contractor.
Is the roof inspection in Delaware County really free?
Yes. The inspection is free, with no obligation, and we tell you straight whether the roof needs a repair, a full replacement, or has plenty of life left.
