Peoria weather and the patio door calendar
Climate numbers on this page come from NOAA's 1991-2020 U.S. Climate Normals at the nearest suitable station, Peoria Gtr Peoria Ap (5 miles from the city center). They are 30-year averages, so any one year can run hotter, colder or wetter.
For exterior installation, the comfortable months in Peoria are March through November: 9 of 12. Outside them, January, February and December have an average daytime high under 45°F.
In January, February and December the average high stays below 45°F. Sealants, adhesives and some materials, such as vinyl, are harder to install well in the cold, and short daylight cuts the working day.

What local crews earn in Peoria
The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Peoria the blend is 1.17.
Carpenters (47-2031), 60% of the weighting: a median of $36.19 an hour, 24% above the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.14 and $48.02 an hour. About 780 work in the metro. That is 47.0 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
Glaziers (47-2121) carry 30% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Peoria metro, so we used the Illinois statewide median: $29.73 an hour against $27.44 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $27.53 and $47.25 an hour.
For general maintenance and repair workers (49-9071, weighted 10%) the local median is $24.43 an hour, which is in line with the national $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $19.39 and $30.62 an hour. BLS counts 1,680 of them working in the area, 101.2 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 98.4), so the local bench is about average.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (carpenters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $390 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $400. That is a swing of roughly 11.5% to 11.2% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
Peoria has 166,020 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 141st by size among the 300 metros on this site.
