Hail in Cook County

NOAA storm records for Cook County list 96 hail reports (the largest 2.75 inches across), 455 thunderstorm wind reports and 29 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 Prospect Heights

About 60% of homes in Prospect Heights were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1976. 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.

About 42% of homes are in apartment buildings, where one failed window or sticking entry door affects a whole building's upkeep. About 64% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
