Glen Carbon homes
About six in ten Glen Carbon homes were built between 1970 and 1999, and about a quarter since 2000.
The village is older than most of its houses. Glen Carbon takes its name from its coal mining heritage and was incorporated in 1892, but only about 5 percent of its homes date from before 1940.
Is it time to replace your roof, siding or windows in Glen Carbon?
About 57 percent of Glen Carbon’s homes were built between 1970 and 1999, and the median home dates to 1990. Whatever your home’s age, here is what wear looks like on its roof, siding and windows.
Signs your roof is wearing out
Many Glen Carbon homes from the 1980s and 1990s still have their original roof or their first replacement, and both are reaching the end. Look for curling shingles, bare spots and grit in the gutters. On 1970s homes, how the last roof was installed matters as much as its age.

Signs your siding is wearing out
Hardboard siding from the 1980s and 1990s swells, flakes and rots at the bottom edges once its paint fails. Vinyl from the same years fades, cracks and pulls loose in wind.

Signs your windows are wearing out
Builder-grade windows from the 1990s are about 30 years old now, and many fog between the panes, stick, or let drafts through worn weatherstripping.

Insurance: some insurers limit coverage on older roofs, so storm damage left unrepaired can cost you later.
Some homeowners wait until there’s a leak, a draft or a cracked panel before calling. A free inspection catches problems before then, and tells you what needs a repair, what needs replacing, and what is still fine.
By era
What to expect from your home
The 1970s
Nearly one in five Glen Carbon homes dates from the 1970s. At about fifty years old, these homes have had at least one roof replaced, so the inspection looks at how the last one was installed as well as its condition today.
The 1980s and 1990s
Homes from these two decades make up nearly 40 percent of the village. Many have already had one replacement roof, and others still have their first. The free inspection, with photos and 3D measurements, shows where yours stands.
2000 and later
About a quarter of Glen Carbon’s homes were built in 2000 or later. Builder-grade shingles and windows from the early 2000s are nearing the end of their life, and many of these roofs have not been replaced yet.
Permits and code in Glen Carbon
Glen Carbon builds to the 2018 International Residential Code, and the village requires a permit for roofs and siding, among other work.
The village’s adopted code does not require ice shield underlayment on roofs. We still recommend it for most homes. Because code does not require it, an insurer may decline to pay for it on a claim, so we explain this before work begins and you can decide with the full picture.
We pull the permits your project needs.
