"Absolutely love it!!! We replaced tub curtains with sliding glass doors. Work and quality are superb. It looks gorgeous. The price was very reasonable. Jose from Glazier helped us with the customization and design of our doors, explained everything in detail. We are very grateful to him and his crew; they are very professional. I will be remodeling another bathroom, and I am defenetly calling Jose from Glazier for my next project. Thanks Glazier, my bathtub looks amazing!!!"

"Their design service was extremely helpful in allowing us to see detailed drawings of the room and side elevations of our home after the addition.  Everyone who worked on our project were professional and skilled at their trades.  Our project involved just about every aspect of home remodeling - design, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, sheetrock, painting, tile and custom woodworking (custom bench/cubbies and wainscoting).
While theirs not the lowest bid we received, I believe the money was well spent.  It's been nearly six months since the work has completed and we've had no problems with the work (in fact, I've had them do additional projects around the house).  In that time, we've experienced several storms and were side-swiped by a hurricane.  The work held up perfectly and we've had no adverse impacts.
I have only two negatives regarding this effort.  First, the project took exactly twice as long as originally estimated (I shouldn't be surprised, but ...).  Finally, the guy who did the tile floor was not as skilled as I would have liked.  The tiles are not precisely aligned and he should have changed blades in his wet saw half way through the work.  We used an intricate pattern so that every tile needed to be cut.  The first tiles are cut cleanly, but the last several rows have jagged cuts.
Regardless, I am extremely pleased with the outcome of this project and would recommend them for any variety of home remodeling work.

Egress Windows FAQs, answered by experts

A good U-factor for windows is 0.30 or lower, but they can range from 0.20 to 1.20. A general rule of thumb when it comes to the U-factor is that the lower, the better.

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.

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.

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.

The average cost to install an egress window is approximately $3,900, with a typical range between $2,500 and $5,300, though costs can be higher. The final price is influenced by several factors, including the window's size, type, material, and glass quality. Other variables include labor costs, location, excavation needs, and whether permits or a structural engineer consultation are required. The price of the window itself often depends on the number of panes:

  • Single-pane: $100–$400

  • Double-pane: $200–$500

  • Triple-pane: $300–$800

Additional features like window wells or covers will also increase the total project cost. It is advisable to obtain multiple quotes from professionals to get a comprehensive understanding of the expenses for your specific project.
