"The work was awesome. Val gave me an estimate and stuck to it. His workers showed up on time and completed the work that day. Just as Val told me it would be done. And would not let me pay them until Val the owner checked the work. Excellent business. I will hire them again."
"They did an awesome job. They were easy to communicate with. If there was any issue then they took care of it. They were very professional, easy to talk to and they made it overwhelming project as our previous home had actually burnt down. They were just amazing. They made it as painless as possible to reconstruct the home. I have nothing but great things to say about them. I think I had a great value for home as they actually built a much bigger home than the one I had before and they helped me the most in creative ways to save money without compromising quality."
Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.
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.
The proper way to install a window well is to measure the window, dig a hole deeper and wider than the window, place a drainage tube and cap, anchor the well to the foundation, caulk the seam, and backfill the hole. The job requires tools such as a hammer drill and auger and some heavy digging. Proper placement and window well installation are critical to preventing water from leaking into the window.
Yes, egress windows must meet local building codes for size and accessibility. Professional installers ensure compliance.
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.
