Local housing stock
56 percent of Tinley Park's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1987, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1987 with over half the stock older, these houses were fitted with the clad wood windows of that period, where a timber frame and sash are protected on the outside face by a thin metal covering and are ordinary wood everywhere else.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 41.21 inches, 4.62 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 73.9 degrees in July; rain recorded at PALOS PARK 1.3 SW 6.6 miles away and temperatures at PARK FOREST 8.2 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.62 inches of a 41.21-inch year and five months average lows below freezing, so the cladding is wetted in spring and then goes through a long freeze; water that gets behind it in November is still there in March.
How water losses tend to end in Tinley Park
- Cladding that hides the condition of the frame rather than revealing it
- Water entering at the corners and sills and held against the timber by the metal
- Decay well advanced before anything is visible, since the visible surface is aluminum
