Hail in St. Clair County

NOAA storm records for St. Clair County list 17 hail reports (the largest 2.5 inches across), 45 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 Swansea

Swansea has a mix of old and newer buildings: about 33% of homes were built before 1980, and the typical home dates from 1993. 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 2000s than in any other period. That makes its housing newer than about 85% of Illinois towns its size.

Housing is a mix, with about 71% single-family houses and 12% in apartment buildings. About 75% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
