Questions

Roofing questions in Wilmette

Is hail a real risk for roofs in Wilmette?

Yes. The area is in the Very High hail band, with 122 reports within 15 km from 2000 to 2024, and 23 of the 25 km reports were hail of 1.75 inches or larger. April is the peak month. If a storm has passed, call for a roof inspection and a written estimate.

Are local roofs older than the rest of the Chicago area?

Slightly. By Census estimates for 2019 to 2023, 81.5% of homes in ZIP code were built before 1980, compared with 77% in Chicago, and the median year built is 1956. Older homes often need closer roof checks, so call to book an inspection.

Do ice dams form on roofs here?

They do. NCEI normals show 128 freezing days and 34 inches of snow a year here. A roof over a warm, leaky attic will build an ice dam in that weather. Sealing the attic is the fix.
