"I went with a laminated shingle instead of the metal roof on this job just because of the difference in cost. The 2 guys that did my roof were on time and got the job done in a timely manor. They did me a very good job on my roof and I was and still am very happy with the roofing job. That said, I hired Better Way at a later date to finish up a siding job that I started and didn't have help to complete. The First crew that came out the helper was more interested in working than the so called lead man. Lead man was on the phone conducting personal business and leaving the job after only a couple hours of being here. He did this on numerous occasions. He failed to put the house wrap on the house. He also failed to anchor large peices of soffit on a 14' X 25' overhang properly. 2 weeks after the job was done large pieces of the soffit started coming loose and falling off the overhang of the house. I called Better Way and they came out with a new crew and fixed the problems that the first crew was not able to get done. The second crew of guys did a good job fixing the problems that the first crew left me. I am not sure the first crew that came out to do my siding is still employed with Better Way. I was told they were not."

Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.
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.
Basements are generally required to have windows for your safety. At a minimum, windows should provide an egress in the event of a fire. But basement windows do more than offer a way out; basement windows also offer natural light and ventilation in an area of your home that is otherwise dark and musty.
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.
Because egress windows are meant for emergency exiting and entering, they need to be an accessible size. The smallest an egress window is allowed to be is 15 inches in width and height, with an opening of around 4 square feet.
