Census and NOAA figures for the city of Somersworth in Strafford County, not the metro, with a source for each.
Somewhat more of Somersworth's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 64% against 50%, with 7% built since 2010. The largest single share, 25%, dates from 1980-1999. That makes it a newer stock than Strafford County as a whole (52% 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 homes in Somersworth are newer than rentals: a median build year of 1977 against 1959.1 With owner-occupied homes skewing newer, many requests are first-time replacements of original builder-grade components.
Somersworth has a mixed housing stock: 44% detached houses, 0% attached or townhouse units and 21% in buildings of five or more units.1 58% of occupied homes in Somersworth are owner-occupied, below the New Hampshire share of 73%.1 The median owner-occupied home in Somersworth is valued at $318,400 (ACS), below the New Hampshire median of $402,500. Within Strafford County the median is $362,800, so Somersworth sits below 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 Rochester Skyhaven Ap station averages 145 nights a year at or below 32°F and 62 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. Summer heat is moderate: about 11 days a year reach 90°F.2,3 Rainfall is substantial: about 41 inches a year, 10 days of it an inch or more.2,3 Heavy rainfall makes flashing, drainage and ventilation details the difference between a sound assembly and a wet one.
Heating dominates the year: about 6,790 heating degree days against 506 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. Somersworth is about 15 miles from the ocean or Gulf coast in a straight line.4,5 Proximity to salt air makes fastener grade and corrosion protection part of every exterior quote.
Somersworth sits in IECC climate zone 5A (Cold).6 Building permits in Somersworth are normally issued by the city building department.7,8
