Factory-Certified Installer · GAF Master Elite & Trusted Manufacturers
The short answer: We handle roof replacement, roof repair, storm and hail damage, and roof inspection across Malvern, from the King Street and Warren Avenue borough homes to the newer East Whiteland and Willistown houses.
- Steep Victorian and 19th-century rooflines, dormers, and valleys are regular work for us, in architectural asphalt, slate, cedar, or standing-seam metal.
- Hail and wind damage is often a covered loss and ordinary wear is not. We photograph the storm damage and meet your adjuster at the house.
- Builder-grade asphalt on 1990s and early-2000s township homes is reaching its rated life now, and a free inspection tells you whether a repair still buys real time.
- As a GAF Master Elite contractor we can back a Malvern replacement with GAF’s enhanced warranty coverage.

Local Conditions
Common roofing challenges in Malvern
- Malvern’s older borough homes date from the 17th through 19th centuries, Victorian stock among them, with steep, detailed rooflines that reward a careful install and punish a fast one.
- The newer houses in the East Whiteland and Willistown ground around the borough are now reaching the end of the twenty-to-twenty-five-year life of their original builder-grade asphalt.
- The Great Valley catches the same summer storm line that crosses Chester County, so wind and hail work these rooflines over every warm season.
- Malvern’s mature, tree-lined streets drop limbs and pack the valleys and gutters with debris, and trapped moisture rots decking along the eaves.
- Freeze-thaw winters build ice dams on north-facing slopes, worst on the older homes built before modern underlayment and ventilation standards.
About the Area
About Malvern, Chester County
Malvern is a borough in Chester County, Pennsylvania, on the Main Line in the Great Valley about nineteen miles west of Philadelphia, near Paoli and Frazer. Its streets hold a real mix of residential styles from the 17th through 19th centuries, Victorian-era homes among them, laid out around King Street and Warren Avenue and served by the Paoli/Thorndale rail line at Malvern station.
Newer development fills the East Whiteland and Willistown township ground around the borough. Between the aging asphalt on those newer homes and the steep, premium roofs on the historic ones, Malvern keeps a busy roof-replacement inventory, and that is where most of our local work happens.

Local Expertise
Roofing & roof replacement for Malvern homes
Why roof replacement is the right call for so many Malvern homes
A large share of Malvern roofs are due, for two different reasons. On the older borough homes the roofs are steep and detailed and often carry premium materials that a previous owner let age past their prime; on the newer township homes, the original builder-grade asphalt is simply reaching the end of its rated life.
Where a roof has been re-covered once with a second layer laid straight over the first, it ages even faster, because the layover traps heat against the old shingle and hides whatever the deck is doing underneath.
A full replacement is a different job than a patch. We strip the roof to the deck, replace any soft or rotted sheathing, and rebuild to current code and manufacturer spec, starting with ice-and-water shield at the eaves and valleys and synthetic underlayment across the field.
At walls and chimneys we cut in real step and counter flashing rather than leaning on a bead of caulk, then balance the intake and exhaust ventilation so the attic breathes. On Malvern’s premium and historic homes we also install standing-seam metal, cedar, and slate.
As a GAF Master Elite contractor, a tier held by a small share of roofers nationwide, we install architectural systems that carry far longer manufacturer warranties than the builder-grade shingles they replace, and that certification is what qualifies our Malvern roofs for GAF’s enhanced warranty tiers.
100% customer focused and detail oriented business. This company could not have been easier to work with. Extremely helpful in processing my insurance claim.
Storm, hail, and insurance claims in Malvern
The Great Valley gives summer thunderstorms a clear run at Malvern rooflines, and the warm months bring the two things that age a roof fastest: high wind and hail.
Malvern’s mature tree canopy adds a second kind of storm damage, from wind-thrown limbs, while hail bruises the shingle surface and knocks the protective granules loose, speeding failure long after the storm has passed.
A roof can pass a casual glance and still carry dozens of impact points that void its integrity and its warranty, and that kind of storm damage is frequently a covered loss.
We get on the roof and photograph what an adjuster needs to see, meet them on site so nothing legitimate gets written off, and coordinate the claim from inspection through final approval. If a storm has rolled through Malvern, a free inspection before you file is the smart move. If the roof has simply aged out, we will tell you that too.
From one of our jobs
This roof was part of an insurance claim after a weather event. We put together the documentation the claim needed and kept the homeowner updated on each next step. The family has kids who often run barefoot through the yard, so at the end of the day our crew double checked the yard for nails and other debris. "My new roof looks great and again I couldn’t be happier," Justin K. wrote afterwards.

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 …

Amazing experience with the entire staff. Phil and Stephen do a wonderful job of working with you through the whole process.
Clear Exteriors is a perfect combination of professionalism, knowledge and service. Phil (owner) was incredibly helpful from the first phone call.
A family owned company that was super helpful when I had hail damage. They worked seamlessly with my insurance company and made it a hassle free project.
The job went smoothly from start to finish. Everyone at Clear Exteriors was friendly, professional and trustworthy. They delivered on all of their promises and replaced half of the roofs on my street.
Stephen is a delight to work with. Zach and his roofing crew did an excellent job installing the new roof and addressed all of my concerns on a follow up visit. I highly recommend their roofing services!
Finally found someone who is reliable. They get it done and done right the first time. I appreciate the time and effort. Thank you

Good to Know
Malvern roofing: frequently asked questions
Do you work on the older and historic homes in Malvern borough?
Yes. In Malvern borough, steep Victorian and 19th-century rooflines, dormers, and valleys are routine for us, in architectural asphalt or in premium materials like slate, cedar, and standing-seam metal. We match the system to the house and install it to manufacturer spec so the warranty holds.
Will my insurance cover a roof replacement in Malvern?
If the damage came from a sudden event like a hail or wind storm, it is frequently a covered loss, while ordinary age and wear are not. We inspect the roof, photograph the storm-related damage, and meet your adjuster on site so everything legitimate is accounted for. Many of our customers mention how much smoother we made the insurance side.
My Malvern home is newer construction. Is the roof already due?
It can be. Builder-grade asphalt is rated for roughly twenty to twenty-five years, so newer Malvern township homes from the 1990s and early 2000s are reaching that window now, especially if a layover was added along the way. A free inspection tells you whether a repair buys real time or a replacement is the sound investment.
What shingles and warranty do you offer?
We install architectural asphalt shingle systems, heavier and longer-lasting than builder-grade three-tab, plus specialty metal, cedar, and slate. As a GAF Master Elite contractor we back Malvern replacements with enhanced manufacturer warranty coverage most contractors cannot offer.
Is there a separate permit for re-roofing in Malvern?
Yes, inside Malvern Borough. The borough's Building Code Officer issues permits, and the borough publishes a Re-Roofing Permit as its own form. The form is submitted to Malvern Borough Administration, open weekdays 9:00 to 12:00 and 1:00 to 5:00. Questions can go to malvern@malvern.org or 610-644-2602. A Malvern-addressed house in East Whiteland or Willistown township falls under that township's building office, not the borough.
