Glassman To The Rescue! is family owned and operated, offering same-day glass replacement services for broken or damaged window and door glass in homes, apartments, mobile homes and commercial properties. Our headquarters is in North Sacramento but Glassman is often rescuing property owners and renters in other parts of the Sacramento area and as far south as Elk Grove, east to Roseville, north to Woodland and west to Davis. Glassman To The Rescue! was established in Sacramento in 1999 providing professional, fast and friendly service to our customers. We operate on flexible hours (trying to accommodate YOUR schedule) as well as on Saturday for no additional charge. We are happy to work with property management companies and serve many owners of rental properties. We work directly with tenants and their schedules so repairs are convenient for both landlords and tenants. Our rates are reasonable - call us and see. For properties pending sale, we can bill repairs through your escrow company, if desired.

"I was in no particular hurry, but after calling after 6pm at night, I received an estimate by the next morning, and work was completed by noon the following day. Their office stayed in close contact every step of the way by phone. The installer was punctual, and paid attention in detail. The price was fair. I researched the price of the window first. I know what my time is worth, and I couldn't have matched their price doing it myself."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can always make an existing window bigger, but the job complexity varies widely depending on the location of the window and the framing around it. Exterior walls are always load-bearing, so making windows wider will require structural changes that make for a more complex but doable project. Making windows taller often won’t require structural changes.

The installation process for your egress window project will span three days for three stages. On day one, excavation will occur. Day two involves cutting the foundation, and day three will focus on window installation and insulation. Remember that the number of windows you install will impact the days needed. Additionally, you may want a couple of helpers to help you speed through day one.

Egress windows can significantly add value to your home. Adding an egress window allows you to market your basement as a living space, increasing your home’s value. In most cases, the increase in value will allow you to fully recover the installation cost, if not more, when it comes time to sell.

Egress windows are typically required for basements with habitable space or living quarters. Not all basements or lower levels require egress windows. However, egress windows are required in homes with living spaces such as bedrooms and living rooms in a basement. The International Residential Code and International Building Code require sleeping rooms to have a specific size egress window. Check your local building codes to confirm the requirements in your area.

You install a window well 8 to 12 inches deeper than the base of the window sill. After filling the well with drainage rock, the well should sit 3 inches below the bottom of the window. The top of the window well should also be at least 3 inches higher than the surface-grade ground. The window well should be about 6 inches wider than the window opening.
