The stock
What Barrington's housing is made of.
44.6% of Barrington's homes predate 1980. 71.9% carry asphalt-shingle roofs, 27.0% are masonry-walled (not a siding market), and 93.5% have a full or partial basement. 88.2% are owner-occupied.
Flood exposure: 75 homes sit in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, while 291 (5.1%) carry a First Street flood factor of 5+ — water risk beyond the mapped floodplain.
The read for contractors
The 4,500–5,000 homes at 25+ years with no roof permit on file are where Barrington's replacement cycle is furthest along — that cohort, minus fresh permits, is the campaign surface.

Re-roof waves
Barrington's permit history has a shape.
Roof permits in Barrington cluster into waves — the county file shows the biggest recent years to the right. Homes that didn't replace during a wave are aging on the same clock as the neighbors that did.
The read for contractors
Campaign the non-replacers inside a past wave's footprint — demand that already proved itself once tends to prove itself again.
