The median home in the city of Craig was built in 1975, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Colorado median of 1988. That is in line with the Moffat County median of 1977.1 The stock is old by national standards: 67% of Craig's housing units were built before 1980 (U.S. 50%), and only 2% since 2010. The largest single share, 40%, dates from 1960-1979. That makes it a newer stock than Moffat County as a whole (60% built before 1980).1 Older housing stock means a contractor's first job is finding what is behind the finish - wiring, plumbing and roof decking - before a price is final. Owner-occupied and rented homes in Craig are of similar age: median build years 1975 and 1974.1

Craig has a mixed housing stock: 56% detached houses, 5% attached or townhouse units and 14% in buildings of five or more units. Mobile and manufactured homes are 16% of units.1 Manufactured homes take different roofing, skirting, anchoring and addition details from site-built houses, so say which kind of home it is when you call. 61% of occupied homes in Craig are owner-occupied, below the Colorado share of 66%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Craig is valued at $278,500 (ACS), below the Colorado median of $539,400. Within Moffat County the median is $289,500, so Craig sits close to it.1 With values below the state median, phased scopes - the essential work first - are a common way to keep a project sensible.

Winters are long: the Craig Moffat Co Ap station averages 221 nights a year at or below 32°F and 122 at or below 20°F.2,3 Long winters put freeze-thaw, ice dams and snow load at the center of roofing and masonry decisions. Summers bring about 32 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is low, about 14 inches.2,3 Low rainfall shifts the wear to UV and heat, which age finishes and sealants.

Snowfall averages about 113 inches a year.2,3 Real snowfall means ice-and-water membrane, attic ventilation and roof load are standard parts of a roofing scope. Heating dominates the year: about 8,234 heating degree days against 216 cooling degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope.

Craig sits in IECC climate zone 6B (Cold).4 Building permits in Craig are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
