Homes and buildings in Fort Madison
About 86% of homes in Fort Madison were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1951. 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. That makes its housing older than about 92% of Iowa towns its size.
Housing is a mix, with about 75% single-family houses and 11% in apartment buildings. About 73% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
Hail in Lee County
NOAA storm records for Lee County list 21 hail reports (the largest 4 inches across), 30 thunderstorm wind reports and 2 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.
