Homes and buildings in Portsmouth

About 90% of homes in Portsmouth were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1947. 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 96% of Ohio towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 72% single-family houses and 17% in apartment buildings. More than half of the homes here are rented, so we also work with landlords and property managers.

Storm winds in Scioto County

NOAA storm records for Scioto County list 2 hail reports (the largest 1.75 inches across) and 35 thunderstorm wind reports 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.
