Hail in Cook County

NOAA storm records for Cook County list 96 hail reports (the largest 2.75 inches across), 455 thunderstorm wind reports and 29 tornadoes from 2020 through 2024. Hail that size can break window glass and dent aluminum frames.

Freeze-thaw cycles and humid summers work on seals from both directions, so cracked sealant, drafty sashes and foggy double-pane glass are common repairs.

Homes and buildings in Bellwood

About 91% of homes in Bellwood were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1955. Buildings that age often still have older single-pane glass and worn aluminum frames, so loose panes, failing seals and tired door hardware come up a lot. More homes here went up in the 1950s than in any other period. That makes its housing older than about 90% of Illinois towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 74% single-family houses and 9% in apartment buildings. About 80% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
