Homes and buildings in Dunkirk

About 90% of homes in Dunkirk were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1942. 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 before 1940 than in any other period.

Housing is a mix, with about 66% single-family houses and 9% in apartment buildings. About 58% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.

Storm winds in Chautauqua County

NOAA storm records for Chautauqua County list 4 hail reports (the largest 1.25 inches across), 116 thunderstorm wind reports and 2 tornadoes from 2020 through 2024. Hail of an inch or more is what the National Weather Service classes as severe.

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.
