What Algonquin homeowners should know
Roofs in Algonquin take a beating from Northern Illinois weather - spring and summer hail, freeze-thaw cycles all winter, and wind that drives ice dams under the shingles. That's why many Algonquin homeowners look at Class 4 impact-resistant shingles (which can also earn a homeowner's-insurance discount) and pay attention to attic ventilation, not just color.
