"Bob repaired a broken kitchen drawer, upgraded two others and added much needed hardware to my kitchen cabinets. He responded very timely to my initial email, which I very much appreciated. Bob contacted me when he was able to come out and arrived when expected. His work and attention to detail is excellent! We will call him again for other repairs and improvements and refer him to family and friends."
"We needed a new roof on our home due it being extremely old. G&O did an amazing job with doing this project for us. Every day they were there early am until late at night working to make sure the roof was completely in a timely manner. All of the workers were nice, polite and extremely informative with any questions we had. By the time they were done, you couldn't even tell they were there with how well they cleaned up all around our house. Nick (owner) came to check in everyday to make sure everything was going the way it was supposed to and maintained constant communication with us the entire job. Compared to other companies we checked with, G&O was definitely the best priced. We will definitely be using them in the future for additional home construction projects!"

"Daragh and his team were absolutely wonderful to work with for my painting projects. I had a huge delay with my contractor which minimized the painting window to about 10 days. Naturally Daragh was booked, but he understood I had an emergency in that I had to move in in less than 2 weeks so he worked long days squeezing me in mornings and on weekends. The job required moving of curtain rods and blind hardware which Daragh handled in the most logical manner depending on the situation - rehanging, setting the holes for the hardware, repairing damage from the prior install, etc. He repaired ice dam damage and was very patient while I took excessive time to try a million colors. He is simply an extremely kind and highly skilled person. Also, I'm writing the review 3-4 months after the work was done as I like to see how completed work holds up and sometimes it takes a while to catch issues - in this case, all is still just perfect! I have two more large projects to do and will definitely call him again, Oh, his pricing was very fair - out of four quotes he was second lowest. You should call him too but not until he's done at my house :)!"
"We had an issue and when we contacted them they responded immediately. Came and had it corrected the next day. Very great to deal with. Anthony was great."

There are a range of egress window types available, including:
Single-hung: $100–$400
Double-hung: $250–$500
Horizontal/sliding: $150–$800
Casement: $200–$500
In-swing: $350–$700
When choosing a type of egress window, consider how you’d like to open it. For example, double-hung egress windows open from top to bottom and let plenty of fresh air in, whereas sliding windows slide open for easy access.
An egress window is similar to a regular window. However, this type of window opens fully to allow people to escape the home or rescue personnel to enter the home if an emergency occurs. Egress windows are required in all finished basements before they can be considered a living space.
Most professionals can install a window well in two to three days, depending on the size of the well and the window you want inside it. If you’re just replacing an existing window well, the work is much less intensive, and most experts can get the job done in just one day. Connecting the window well to a drainage system or installing a custom concrete window well will naturally take longer, but even the most complicated installations shouldn’t take more than three days.
The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
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.
