"I had 5 different companies/contractors come out to give estimates. Of all of them, Reliable was one of the lowest priced AND really seemed to know what they were doing. Everything went great, which digging into a foundation of a house, could have had complications. Dominick was responsive to calls/questions and made the whole process as easy as it could have been."

"Excellent!!!! We are completely satisfied. Murphy's has hit the TRIFECTA of the vinyl window replacement business with reasonable prices, a quality installation crew and a top tier window replacement product with great energy saving ratings. All of this starts with sound management. The President of the company, James (Jimmy) Murphy, will likely be your first contact. At our first meeting, Jimmy came right out the gate with a reasonable price. There was no need to haggle. There were no salesman stunt of high bid immediately followed by a "special discount". Jimmy provided a honest trustworthy quote. The customer does not pay for the overhead of an expensive commissioned salesman. The installation crew takes personal pride in doing an excellent professional job. That is a rare attribute today and quite refreshing to experience. Murphy's and Okna provide excellent labor and product warranties, respectively, which are readable and not burdened by any legalese cryptic fine print provisions. Experts recommend that the consumer get three estimate for a window replacement project. Get two estimates elsewhere, do some research and then call Murphy's. Meet with Jimmy and then breathe a sigh of relief that you found the right trustworthy contractor with the right price, a high quality dedicated installation crew, and a quality replacement window producer who isn't afraid to provide a straight-forward readable warranty."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

Finding a reputable contractor for an egress window installation involves researching and vetting potential candidates. Start by searching for local professionals, reading customer reviews, and checking their websites for a portfolio of their work.

Once you have a shortlist, ask the following questions to ensure they are qualified:

• Are you licensed and insured?

• What experience do you have installing egress windows?

• Can you provide references from previous customers?

• Do you perform the work yourself or use subcontractors?

• What is the estimated project timeline and your current schedule?

• How do you handle payment?

Yes, you absolutely need a permit to add a window to your house. Your contractor can likely obtain this permit on your behalf. Ask about this when getting quotes from multiple window contractors.

Egress windows require regular maintenance to ensure they function correctly. This includes cleaning the glass, inspecting the frame and well for debris, and making sure the cover or well drains properly. It is also important to check that the window sills and wells are watertight and to inspect and repair any damage to the window frame or seals to prevent leaks and maintain functionality.

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.

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.
