"Their customer service is just great. They were responsive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure my satisfaction with the new windows."
"OMG, WILL NEVER call another contractor for a bid in Window World's area of expertise! Last week, as I was coming home from vacation, in traffic near Chicago, I received a call wanting to schedule an install date. I agreed that the following Monday would be fine. Requested an expected arrival time. was told between 8 & 9 a.m. I HAD to leave at 9:45 a.m. and did so.No-one had arrived to start siding. I put it off to bad weather. Didn't arrive home until mid-afternoon Monday. I found my 3 story home stripped of the old steel & vinyl siding AND nearly completely clad in the new insulation! The man running the crew came to my door asking if there was somewhere safe he could leave their tools etc. I was able to give them half my garage. The crew arrived shortly after 7 am.Tues. Worked until 7 pm. NON-stop! Then on Wednesday LESS THAN 3 days from starting job!!!) This crew had COMPLETED the job & was cleaning up & reloading their truck! The field supervisor was dumbfounded! The head of the crew even taught him a couple of things about siding, to make the job better with NO extra cost to homeowner! THANK YOU ANGIE'S LIST! Not only did you save us thousands of dollars, but I got a top notch crew out of it! Those men on the crew were such hard-workers and so polite! I am thankful, Window World of East Peoria, was able to access and use this crew! Shoot, I'd hire the crew again if they did more than siding!"
"Andrew did a great job in removing and installing three interior door frames, doors and casing. He explained everything that he was going to be doing pre job start and answered my questions along the way. When he was finished the installed doors/frames and casings looked great and he cleaned the work areas very well.
I would recommend him highly for quotes and work"
"This company has excellent windows, doors, and service. The installers did a fantastic job with installation and clean up. I would highly recommend this company to anyone!"
"We are extremely happy with how our new windows and new front door turned out. After some unexpected challenges with the way our home was built, our installation crew quickly and efficiently adapted to make sure our windows and door were installed with expert care. Every time we see our new beautiful picture window we are left breathless! And our beautiful front door is the perfect upgrade for the look of our home. Thank you RBA!"
"Chris is an amazing worker and came in and worked fast. He was super nice and described exactly what he’d be doing. He’s redone my disposal (kitchen) and my faucet in the main bathroom. He is definitely the first person I would recommend to anyone needing home improvement!!"
"We signed a contract with Cronkhite Home Solutions to have windows and siding installed. After the kitchen window was put in we contacted Shayne Diebel because it was not level and it was also not finished well. There were gaps left in the wood and knotholes in the trim they put around the inside of the window. We decided we would rather have a different window and we were given an estimate, but he never came by with a contract. When they came out to put in the front door Lowes did not have the French door kit to go with the storm doors. The worker told me that the boss wanted the last $1000 for the job but since the storm doors werenâÂÂt in I was uncomfortable paying for the rest of the job since the job wasnâÂÂt done. I paid him $500. Once I got the storm doors straightened out with Lowes I texted Shayne and the worker who installed the door. Shayne replied telling me someone would take care of it. Lowes started calling every couple of days and whenever they called, I would text the contractor to let him know that the doors needed to be picked up. This went on for about three months. I finally texted them saying that it was obvious that they were not interested in finishing the job and I may as well keep the last $500 to hire another contractor to finish the job. I never got a reply. On the first windy day after the siding was installed, a piece of aluminum fascia board fell off the eaves over the garage. I texted repeatedly and included a picture. Shayne kept telling me the guys would take care of it. To date nothing has been done. Working with this contractor has been frustrating experience. We would just like to have the work completed."
"I am a very happy customer! I want to thank Wes Glasgow for all his help deciding how to solve my problems and answering all my many questions! He is great! I had my basement waterproofed and Alex, Augie, Damon, Ty were wonderful and very accommodating to my needs. My basement is my place of business. It is now dry with the help of my new sump pump, and my Sedona keeps my humidity in check. I also had my bowing wall anchored. It was a source of anxiety to my home and business. Jonathan H and Kevin came in and anchored the wall and put covers over the anchors. They did a super job, the wall looks great, and we feel safe! All "my" men were wonderful! They were efficient, thoughtful, helpful, kind and considerate of me and my business. I would recommend them and the company to my family and friends."
"Very happy with the job E squared construction did replacing the porch. Matt kept me informed every step of the way. I will definitely call him again!!"
"David gave me what I thought was a fair price for the work to be done. He asked for 1/2 up front. As a previous small business owner I did not feel this was unreasonable so I paid him 500.00. He estimated the work would take 3 to four days and I thought the same. After several no shows the "mason" showed up. The first clue was he came in a car. According to my wife he was here 2 hours and left, came back for another 2 hours the next day and left again. He said nothing to my wife about leaving or when he would be back. David called a day later to ask about coming out to look over the job and get the rest of the other 500.00. I said he isn't finished and he's only been here 4 hours. So then I looked up the prevailing wage in IL for a mason and found out it is 28.50 an hour. The next day the guy comes back for another 3 hours. David came to look at the work and I walked him around and showed him all of the places that had not been done. So the guy comes back again for about an hour. All told it was 8 hours work, nothing to write home about but it was agreed up front that I wasn't looking for an exposed brick look. I need it tuck pointed well enough so that I could drylock and paint the exposed brick. I will say this was done in the end. The worker left a mess that I and my wife had to clean up, I pointed this out to David as well. I told him I felt he was overly paid for the amount of work preformed and that was the end of it. It's really to bad. It's difficult to get contractors to do small jobs and I had plenty for him to do. I'm not unhappy, just would not hire again"

Installing a basement window generally takes a few hours, assuming there are no structural issues you need to resolve first. If you’re a novice DIYer, the project could take longer; on the flip side, a licensed and trained window contractor may be able to replace multiple basement windows in the time it takes a homeowner to replace one.
