Hail in Winnebago County

NOAA storm records for Winnebago County list 36 hail reports (the largest 3 inches across), 79 thunderstorm wind reports and 7 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 Machesney Park

Machesney Park has a mix of old and newer buildings: about 56% of homes were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1977. Double-pane windows from the 1980s and 1990s are now at the age when seals fail and the glass fogs up. More homes here went up in the 1970s than in any other period.

About 88% of homes are single-family houses, so patio doors and home windows make up much of the work. About 81% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
