"Julian helped us with James Hardie siding installation at our San Francisco home. He was clear about the process, the crew kept the area tidy, and the finished exterior looks dramatically better."
"Attic Pros installed a sump pump under difficult conditions. Drained the crawl space and then installed the pump just before more heavy rains. Other companies wouldnà ¢à  à  t take the job until the crawl space was drained.. Attic Pros then sent someone the next day to finish the exterior plumbing, Very grateful for Attic Pros."
"Great experience getting windows installed by American Home Renewal. First contact was 6 months ago. I slept on it for a few months and got some other quotes. Chris was friendly as a sales man, Gave me a competitive price and some pointers on fiberglass vs vinyl. I went with Vinyl. Alex was the installer and was very detailed in explaining the install process. He explained everything in detail to me and showed me tips on how to do a proper install. We did a mix of new construction and retrofit. we added window casings and he was very thorough and asked multiple questions on how I wanted the casings to look. only hiccup was one of the windows was ordered wrong. we couldn't determine where the mixup occurred but they immediately took full ownership and reordered me a new window to the specs I wanted. I would highly recommend."
"Greenshield well deserves a five star rating from the promptness of communication, professional and friendly installers, fair pricing, owner pride, efficiency, and workmanship."
"Bay Valley called me shortly after I submitted a request. Joel, the estimator, was very knowledgeable, showing me how the house is built via the garage, noting that insulation did not need to be placed above the windows because the wood support beam filled the area (which another contractor seemed not to know), and mentioning how they would patch the vapor barrier (whereas another contractor said they couldn't repair). The price was very reasonable and he also mentioned ways that I could save money. The installers were very professional and the cleanup was fantastic. Because the house is vacant, I had them blow insulation from the inside and the house hasn't been so clean in a long time. Also they swept outside, cleaning the mess the window contractors had also left. I recommend Bay Valley. They did a fantistic job."
"The Good: Pretty good experience all around. The crew was a bit late, but they did call well in advance and let me know. No problems there. The 2 man crew was polite and did clean up the job site when they were done. The insulation was installed properly for the most part. (see below) The Bad: My only real complaint was that they buried 4 attic vents in the insulation. I was able to easily remove the pieces that were blocking the vents. I didn't specially say to NOT block the vents, but I would assume an insulation company would know to not do this. Easy fix, so I'm not too upset about it. Overall: Very good price, availability was quick, and the installers were easy to work with and didn't leave a mess. I would definitely use them again, but would suggest if you do, to make sure you mark and/or double check your attic vents before they leave. My room didn't have drywall put in yet, so this was easy for me to fix. Alternatively, install the vent protector metal or plastic "ducts" first.
"The crew arrived on time and installed plastic on the floor and walls for protection. They did a good job removing the old insulation and installing new insulation. The crew did a great job cleaning up. Nice professional job."
"As a client of Bayside Builders Group, I have enjoyed working with them. Their crews were pleasant and organized. Installation was completed when they said it would, and the deck turned out to be beautiful! I know they are the best in the industry! You tell them what you want, and they make it happen! Great job! Don't think twice; call them today!"
The entire window replacement process, from the initial consultation to the final installation, typically takes between four and 15 weeks. This timeline accounts for measuring appointments, ordering, and manufacturing. On the day of the job, the physical installation takes about 30 minutes to two hours per window. A full-house replacement can take one to three days to complete. Factors that can extend this timeline include the total number of windows, custom sizes, complex window types, second-story installations, and any necessary repairs to existing window frames or openings.
An egress window is similar to a regular window. However, this type of window opens fully to allow people to escape the home or rescue personnel to enter the home if an emergency occurs. Egress windows are required in all finished basements before they can be considered a living space.
When you need new windows depends on a variety of factors, including the age of your windows, the age of your home, and the climate you live in. If you’re dealing with budget constraints, you don’t need to replace all your windows simultaneously.
When buying new windows, you should consider energy efficiency, safety, and aesthetics to choose the right window for you.
Most professionals can install a window well in two to three days, depending on the size of the well and the window you want inside it. If you’re just replacing an existing window well, the work is much less intensive, and most experts can get the job done in just one day. Connecting the window well to a drainage system or installing a custom concrete window well will naturally take longer, but even the most complicated installations shouldn’t take more than three days.
Yes, egress windows are grandfathered. However, this comes with some specifications. If you are remodeling a basement or adding a sleeping area, you’ll need to update the egress windows to be up to proper code. But, if you’re leaving your home as is, you do not have to adhere to these requirements.
