Predominantly stucco and concrete block construction with flat or tile roofs defines Phoenix's residential character. Extreme desert heat makes energy-efficient cooling systems the single most important home system, and upgrades here deliver the clearest ROI. Monsoon season can bring sudden, intense flooding that causes water damage and requires proper drainage and waterproofing.
