"I posted on Angi and Matt responded immediately and was friendly and professional.
He made an access entry from the original basement wall into my addition.
There was little to no cleanup for me after! Job well done to Matt and Dickie. I highly recommend Smithtown Landworks."
"Beautiful Job! Useable in a Day. Finished next morning. when the post they ordered arrived. I have asked Vestige to do another job when it gets a little warmer Reasonable Prices Extremely good Job!"
"We have used US Home Improvement for a number a projects around my home. John and his team always do great work and I would recommend them for anything you my need."
"Sam and his crew did great work, consulted with me throughout, and left my yard as they found it. I will definitely use them in the future and I highly recommend Sam's Masonry."
"I am very happy with their work. I actually hired Stratum to replace my deck in 2022 and asked them to come back to remodel my bathroom this past summer. Their contractor Lee was professional and helpful. He took time to provide different options with pros and cons to the problem. He made sure everything was done to my satisfaction. I appreciated his sincerity. I highly recommend this company."
"Fantastic company!!!! Everyone is professional, timely, respectful , communication is consistent and finished product is outstanding. This is the second time we have worked with Soma Construction and I can’t say enough positive things. I wouldn’t go with anyone else!"
"Rick White at Bradford construction really delivered for us in replacing an old sliding glass door in our new home. We'd placed an order for a new door with a big box store. After several weeks, it arrived damaged and we decided to seek new options. We found Bradford Construction on Angi and could not be more satisfied. Rick sourced a new door for us within a similar price range and kept us up-to-date and informed throughout the process.. Honest, professional, on-time and the team did a great installation job. We plan on working with Bradford Construction again and highly recommend them."
"5 stars for Lourenco and his team. Lourenco has successfully completed two separate remodel projects for us and we are very happy with the results. The quality of work is high, turn around time is fast, and communication is great. I would recommend Lourenco and his team to any real estate business looking to complete construction or a remodel. Thank you!!"

Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.
Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.
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.
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.
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.
