Older homes near the square

Houses around the courthouse square and the older streets often date to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Plaster walls, empty wall cavities, shallow attics and stone or brick foundations are common. Sealing the attic and rim joist, then dense-packing walls where wiring allows, usually helps most.

Newer homes and farms

Outside the center, newer homes have basements or crawl spaces and bonus rooms. Farm properties around Boonville have pole barns and shops, where closed-cell foam on the steel stops condensation and holds heat.

Housing count

The 2020 census counted 2,986 housing units, 9.1% vacant. Boonville has a humid subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and mild to cool winters.

Costs

Coal country foundations

Warrick County has a long coal-mining history, and older Boonville homes often sit on stone or brick foundations that can wick moisture. Rather than covering an old stone wall that needs to breathe, we often seal and insulate the rim joist and the floor above, and leave the wall itself alone. Newer poured or block basement walls can take closed-cell foam directly.
