most commonly asked questions
How often should a roof be replaced in Pennsylvania?
Most roofs in Pennsylvania last 20 to 30 years depending on shingle type, installation quality, and weather exposure. If your roof is 15 years or older, routine inspections help prevent leaks and unexpected damage.
What are the signs that I need a new roof?
Common warning signs include missing shingles, curling shingles, granules in gutters, ceiling stains, sagging areas, and visible leaks. If you notice any of these issues, schedule an inspection as soon as possible.
Do you offer free roofing estimates in Chester County?
Yes. Duke Roofing and Renovations provides free roof inspections and written estimates for homes throughout West Chester, Malvern, Downingtown, Exton, Glen Mills, and nearby towns.
What roofing materials do you install?
We install CertainTeed architectural shingles, metal roofing, flat roofing systems, and custom roofing solutions based on your home’s style and needs.
How do I know if my stucco is failing?
Signs of stucco failure include cracks, staining, bulging areas, soft spots, leaks around windows, and high moisture readings. Homes built between the late 1990s and early 2010s in Chester County are especially prone to stucco problems.
What is stucco remediation?
Stucco remediation is the process of removing failed stucco, repairing underlying structural issues, installing proper weather barriers, and replacing the exterior with materials like fiber cement, vinyl siding, or stone veneer.
How long does stucco remediation take?
Most projects take two to six weeks depending on the size of the home, moisture damage, and chosen exterior material.
Is stucco remediation covered by insurance?
Insurance may cover damage caused by water intrusion, but not the stucco failure itself. We can help document damage for your insurance claim.
What siding materials do you install?
Insurance may cover damage caused by water intrusion, but not the stucco failure itself. We can help document damage for your insurance claim.
How long does new siding last?
New siding improves protection from moisture, increases curb appeal, boosts energy efficiency, and raises your home value.
How do I know if I need new windows?
You may need new windows if you notice draftiness, condensation between panes, difficulty opening or closing windows, or rising energy bills.
What brands of windows do you install?
We install ProVia Endure, ProVia Aspect, and other premium high-efficiency window systems.
Will new windows help with heating and cooling costs?
Yes. Energy-efficient windows reduce drafts, help your HVAC system run more efficiently, and can significantly lower energy costs.
How long does a typical project take?
Most roofing jobs take one to three days. Siding, windows, and stucco remediation projects range from one to six weeks depending on size and complexity.
