"Bob did an incredible job installing my new patio door. Very dependable and professional. Looking forward to working with him again on future projects. Would highly recommend!!"
"Had two exterior doors installed by Beantown Home Improvements. They showed up on the day promised but it was too cold to install the doors so they double checked measurements, stored the new doors under my deck and wrapped them in plastic. Returned a few days later and were able to install the new doors. Installation went flawlessly and they did a good job cleaning up. Jarred suggested using pvc trim, glad he recommended it. Doors look great and seal quite well just in time for winter. I will certainly use them again on my next home improvement project and would without hesitation recommend their services."

"Doug and his crew did a fantastic job. Showed up when he said he would. Had great pricing and was not satisfied with the project until we were. They installed more than 1500 sq ft of floor tile, granite steps and did a bathroom with 5 ft tiled shower. We will have him back to do the next section of our house. Do not hesitate to hire Doug and his crew."
"They were just awesome. The crew was extremely polite and courteous, they were continually cleaning as they worked, their tools, truck and uniforms were clean and new. It was a very difficult installation and they did an excellent job. They all got along well and there was no yelling and swearing as you might normally hear with construction workers. My wife and I were very impressed with their skill."
"Amazing company, work was done perfectly. They waited for a few rainstorms to make sure roof didnt leak before payment. I will use them when Im ready to replace the whole roof. Honest and reliable."
"We had a wonderful experience with Atlantic Contracting LLC. They were extremely communicative, hardworking, and stayed within our budget and the expected timeline. Will definitely be using again!"
"I used Allied Group for a total bathroom renovation involving a tub to walk-in shower conversion. Their team approach assured that the necessary skilled trades would be available in a timely manner. Project involved carpentry, plumbing, tile installation and electrical work. Mark was responsive and everyone was accommodating to my wishes. I couldn't be happier with the results. I love it!"
Yes, egress windows are grandfathered. However, this comes with some specifications. If you are remodeling a basement or adding a sleeping area, you’ll need to update the egress windows to be up to proper code. But, if you’re leaving your home as is, you do not have to adhere to these requirements.
You install a window well 8 to 12 inches deeper than the base of the window sill. After filling the well with drainage rock, the well should sit 3 inches below the bottom of the window. The top of the window well should also be at least 3 inches higher than the surface-grade ground. The window well should be about 6 inches wider than the window opening.
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.
Basements are generally required to have windows for your safety. At a minimum, windows should provide an egress in the event of a fire. But basement windows do more than offer a way out; basement windows also offer natural light and ventilation in an area of your home that is otherwise dark and musty.
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.
