Common Issues in Chicago Homes

Our Chicago home inspectors frequently identify these local property concerns:

Flat Roof Membrane Failures

Chicago two-flats, three-flats, and greystones commonly utilize flat or low-slope roofing systems such as built-up or modified bitumen, which can deteriorate over time with cracking, alligatoring, blistering, and ponding related wear.

Knob-and-Tube Wiring

Chicago bungalows and courtyard buildings constructed before 1940 very commonly retain active knob-and-tube electrical circuits throughout.

Galvanized Steel Pipe Corrosion

Pre-1960 Chicago residential buildings frequently still have galvanized supply lines with severe internal corrosion reducing water pressure and flow.

Brick Facade Tuckpointing Deterioration

Greystone and brick facades require periodic tuckpointing, and when mortar joints deteriorate, moisture intrusion can occur behind the masonry, leading to further structural and interior damage.

Sewer and Catch Basin Backflow Risk

Chicago's combined sewer system can contribute to basement sewage backflow during heavy rain events, particularly in low-lying or older neighborhoods without backflow prevention systems.

Basement Moisture in Rubble Foundations

Older Chicago homes and some early multi-unit buildings may have stone or brick foundations that lack modern waterproofing, making them more susceptible to groundwater seepage and chronic basement moisture.
