Homes and buildings in Silver City

About 68% of homes in Silver City were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1972. 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 76% of New Mexico towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 59% single-family houses and 13% in apartment buildings. Around 16% are mobile homes, whose windows and doors often use different frames and sizes. About 57% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.

Extreme heat and strong sun

NOAA storm records for Grant County list 2 hail reports (the largest 1 inches across) and 5 thunderstorm wind reports from 2020 through 2024. Hail of an inch or more is what the National Weather Service classes as severe.

Desert sun can heat glass enough to cause stress cracks, especially on tinted or partly shaded panes, and sustained heat breaks down insulated glass seals sooner.
