What does the laws in your state dictate? In Maryland, the Maryland Home Improvement Commission dictates at lease one year.

24hrs. before the next hurricane hits is the standard boiler plate for my area.

Usually a year is required I think. It is in Texas anyway except in certain situations. Its always better to waranty for longer though. Its cheap advertising.
Or you the warantee or waranter?

I'm SE PA too but dont know.
We put in writing 1 year but if client called after 2 years we would take care of it unless we had 64+ mile per hour winds (I think that is the warranty stated coverage but might be mistaken. I would research before committing)
What is client asking for? What fell off and why?
If you did something wrong, take care of it, especially in these tough times, as it usually pays in dividends.
If it was 10 years ago, and you have not heard from them at all, forget it!
Structural Warranty is implied at 12 years in Pa due to case law but the siding is not considered structural.
Hope that helps a little
Here in the State of Washington if you do not include a warranty time in your contracts you are on the hook for 12 Years.You better believe that it clearly states 1 year in my contractsFrank
Whatever is right, if it's something you did fix it.

My warranty on my work is pretty much eternal, allowing for extra-ordinary conditions.
