The median home in the village of Hampshire was built in 2004, newer than the U.S. median of 1980 and newer than the Illinois median of 1971. That is newer than the Kane County median of 1985.1 A large share of newer homes means many systems are still inside a warranty; checking that comes before any repair quote. Owner-occupied homes in Hampshire are newer than rentals: a median build year of 2005 against 2001.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.

Housing in Hampshire is mostly detached single-family: 66% of units, with 0% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. The median owner-occupied home in Hampshire is valued at $329,800 (ACS), above the Illinois median of $263,300. Within Kane County the median is $327,000, so Hampshire sits close to it.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have.

Winters are long: the West Chicago Dupage Ap station averages 134 nights a year at or below 32°F and 60 at or below 20°F.2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions. Summer heat is moderate: about 14 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 33 inches, with 6 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3

Heating dominates the year: about 6,364 heating degree days against 822 cooling degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope. Hampshire is about 36 miles from the Great Lakes shoreline (fresh water).4,5 Lake-effect weather adds wind-driven rain and snow to the exterior details that matter.

Hampshire sits in IECC climate zone 5A (Cold).6 Building permits in Hampshire are normally issued by the village building department.7,8
