And How to Build Smarter Because of It
Indiana weather is tough on homes — especially with freeze–thaw cycles, heavy rain, humidity, and temperature swings.
Freeze–Thaw Cycles
Water expands when it freezes, which can crack foundations, concrete, and masonry if not properly designed.
Moisture & Humidity
Basements, crawl spaces, and attics are vulnerable to moisture buildup without proper drainage and ventilation.
Roofing & Exterior Systems
Strong winds, snow loads, and summer heat require durable roofing materials and proper installation techniques.
Building Smarter
- Proper grading and drainage
- Quality insulation and vapor barriers
- Durable roofing and siding materials
- Foundations designed for local soil conditions
Local experience matters when designing homes that last through Indiana seasons.
