"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."
"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."
"Wladimir and his team was fantastic. It was not an easy job but he was able to get it done! He kept within his budget and was communicative the entire time. Thankful for him and his team"

The work was done when promised and Sam and his crew did an excellent job. Sam is a very nice guy and very professional. I highly recommend Sam’s Masonry."
"Green Valley was great to work with! They remodeled our basement into a playroom for our kids, as well as added a half bath and laundry area. The existing space was falling apart, dark, and depressing. Matt and his team completely transformed the space into a bright, modern, and cheerful place to spend time. Matt was very easy going, respectful, and easy to work with. We are in love with the custom rustic doors he made for two spaces that would not fit a typical door size. He was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had during the remodel. We would absolutely work with Green Valley construction again and highly recommend them."
"Skip and his son Jonah did all the work over a period of a few weeks, due to inclement weather. I cannot speak highly enough of how good they were, I would hire back again in a heartbeat. Hard working, very friendly and professional in every way. On the back sliding glass door, Skip noticed that the screen did not close properly and there was a flaw on the hardware of the door which needs to be replaced. I believe Andrea in their office has ordered said items and we are now waiting to hear when they will be fitted."
The cost of window installation depends on several factors, including the window type, size, and frame material. Labor rates, the need for custom sizing, and any required structural modifications will also influence the final price.

Finding a reputable contractor for an egress window installation involves researching and vetting potential candidates. Start by searching for local professionals, reading customer reviews, and checking their websites for a portfolio of their work.

• How do you handle payment?
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.
