The median home in the city of Gladstone was built in 1973, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Missouri median of 1978.1 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. Somewhat more of Gladstone's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 64% against 50%, with 5% built since 2010.1 Owner-occupied and rented homes in Gladstone are of similar age: median build years 1972 and 1974.1

Housing in Gladstone is mostly detached single-family: 66% of units, with 20% in buildings of five or more units.1 A mostly detached stock means the full range of exterior work applies: roofs, garage doors, chimneys and backyard units. 68% of occupied homes in Gladstone are owner-occupied (68% statewide).1 The median owner-occupied home in Gladstone is valued at $231,500 (ACS), close to the Missouri median of $230,300.1

The Kansas City Downtown Ap station averages 93 nights a year at or below 32°F and 31 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles. Summers bring about 47 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 38 inches, with 11 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3

Heating dominates the year: about 4,613 heating degree days against 1,708 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. Gladstone sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Gladstone are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
