"ACQ was very professional and reliable. I hired them to install a sliding door at my house. They showed up on time and didn't try to nickel and dime me with additional costs like many other companies have in the past. I would recommend them to my friends and I plan on calling again next time I have work that needs to be done. It seems hard to find reliable businesses these days."
"Just finished a visit with Foreman Doug and his crew, Devin, Sean, and Mason. Waterproofing the basement and super sound and solid work! Doug was professional and very good at keeping me in the loop with the project over the 3 day visit, and created a solid system that we are confident will keep water out of the basement forever. Above and beyond as well with problem solving when having to find solutions to fit our basement layout, all with a solid financing option/great price and 5 year warranty/ yearly inspection plan. If you are stuck with water in your basement, get Groundworks working for you ASAP!"

"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."
The primary benefits of an egress window include providing a safe emergency exit, increasing natural light in a space like a basement, and improving ventilation. Additionally, installing an egress window can often increase your property's value.
Adding windows to a house is expensive. Budget roughly $5,800 to add a single window, and double or triple that to add two or three. In some cases, adding a single window can exceed $20,000, depending on the type of exterior wall, the size of the window, the type of window, local permit costs, and other factors.
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.
Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.
The proper way to install a window well is to measure the window, dig a hole deeper and wider than the window, place a drainage tube and cap, anchor the well to the foundation, caulk the seam, and backfill the hole. The job requires tools such as a hammer drill and auger and some heavy digging. Proper placement and window well installation are critical to preventing water from leaking into the window.
