Homes and buildings in La Plata

Most of La Plata is fairly new: only about 14% of homes were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1992. With newer double-pane windows, the usual problems are a failed seal, cracked glass or a sliding door that has worn through its rollers. More homes here went up in the 1980s than in any other period. That makes its housing newer than about 86% of Maryland towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 48% single-family houses and 18% in apartment buildings. About 77% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.

Hail in Charles County

NOAA storm records for Charles County list 12 hail reports (the largest 1.75 inches across), 97 thunderstorm wind reports and 1 tornado from 2020 through 2024. Hail that size can break window glass and dent aluminum frames.

Humid summers wear out sealants and insulated glass, and wind-driven rain finds any weak seal.
