Homes and buildings in Ketchikan
About 73% of homes in Ketchikan were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1971. 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 1970s than in any other period. That makes its housing older than about 88% of Alaska towns its size.
About 26% of homes are in apartment buildings, where one failed window or sticking entry door affects a whole building's upkeep. About 59% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
Hard freezes and winter drafts
Long freezing winters crack sealant, shrink gaskets and turn small gaps into real heat loss. Fall is the time to reseal, and winter is when draft and leak problems show up.
