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 75% of Illinois towns its size.
About 89% of homes are single-family houses, so patio doors and home windows make up much of the work. About 96% of homes here are lived in by their owners, and we work with homeowners and shop owners alike.
