"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!"
"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."
"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 work done was a very challenging rehab of a 3rd floor walk-up condo. walls and plumbing were moved and the space was completely transformed. LC was very professional and did a fantastic job."
"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 :)!"

Yes, egress windows must meet local building codes for size and accessibility. Professional installers ensure compliance.
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.
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.
The entire window replacement process, from the initial consultation to the final installation, typically takes between four and 15 weeks. This timeline accounts for measuring appointments, ordering, and manufacturing. On the day of the job, the physical installation takes about 30 minutes to two hours per window. A full-house replacement can take one to three days to complete. Factors that can extend this timeline include the total number of windows, custom sizes, complex window types, second-story installations, and any necessary repairs to existing window frames or openings.
There are a few ways to save money on egress window installation. First, choosing pre-fabricated windows instead of custom windows can help dramatically reduce the overall cost. In addition, skipping window extras, like customized frames or window film, can help save money on the price tag without sacrificing the window itself. You should also shop around to multiple window installers to find the best installation deal without sacrificing the quality of the window.
