What actually breaks in Chicago
Chicago handyman work runs on a winter clock. Drafts, failed weatherstripping and doors that no longer seal are worth fixing before the cold rather than during it, and interior work — drywall, trim, mounting, assembly — is naturally the winter list. Freeze-thaw movement also opens drywall cracks at door and window corners every year.
