Homes and gutters
The houses in Byron, and what they mean for the gutters
Byron's homes are a mix of eras. 40.8% of homes were built before 1980 and 25.8% since 2000, with a median year built of 1987 (Ogle County: 1972). That mix means quotes vary: a 1970s ranch is a short job, a 1990s two-story a longer one.
12.1% of housing units are in buildings with 2 to 4 units and 9.8% in buildings with 5 or more, so duplexes, two-flats and complexes are a real part of the gutter work in Byron; associations and owners can see commercial and HOA gutter cleaning.
