They have an "A" review on here which is very in accurate. As a business owner and a contractor myself these reviews can be altered with enough money in advertising with Angie's List. Be careful who you hire, I wasn't so currently I'm in litigation with Long Windows and I do not advise anyone to use them for ANY of their services. The COO of the company Dave Normandin is incompetent when it comes to windows and is the most insulting person I have ever met! He is the guy that told me to use hairspray... really? 13k for windows and use hairspray to make them slide better? My windows were never installed properly and I refused to pay the balance, I was told in order to have my issues fixed it would be warranty work... warranty work that would involve the windows being installed properly in the first place.... correct? not damaging window sill correct? windows slide properly correct? Steer Clear of these people!!! Longs crews were at my home on 4 different occasions for a job that was supposed to be done in "1 Day" I took off work and waited and had to clean up after their crews left. I was insulted by one of the employee/contractors who said "are you crazy, the windows are fine". Dave came to look at the same window he acknowledged the window wasn't working properly and told me all I needed to do was spray some hairspray on there and it "should" be fine. Hairspray? Really? I paid 12k for new windows that I have to spray a hair product on it to work properly? Once again unacceptable!!! In addition to the nightmare of installation the sales guys really screwed me on these "special windows" that will help with exterior noise and heat, which has not made any difference in the noise. I can hear a car drive by and max speed on my street is maybe 15MPH... not sure how they helped with noise.Heat is still the same. I think I would like to get them all replaced with the same windows on the whole house because they did not do what the guys told me they would do. I would like for all the repairs to be made under the original work order since the windows have never been right since install and I will follow with the payment.

Kelemer Brothers replaced all my windows in 2015. Everything about this company was stellar from start to finish. Recently, one of the windows would not stay open. I reached out to Joe who ordered the necessary part & came out himself on a Sunday to make the repair. At no charge. I have never...

The DC historic preservation society (HPO) mandated that I must install Marvin Infinity windows (or some even more expensive options). There are apparently only 2 companies in our region that are legally allowed to install this exact type of window. Quite the opportunity to take advantage...

I really appreciated that Window Universe didn't go for the "hard sell" or patronizing tone of other window companies, especially as a single female (who knew that buying new windows had so much in common with buying a new car?). Their prices are a little higher than some of their...

"Kenny and team were amazing to work with - professional, polite, honest, and finished the project ahead of schedule and at a very fair price. We had two old single pane windows replaced in our basement (which may have been 50+ years old), and a new window well installed. The work was very well done. I have since recommended Clifton to multiple friends and other contractors. Five stars."

"NOVA Exteriors did a wonderful job replacing 3 exterior doors at our home. They checked every box one could ask for. Rob our sales rep was patient and understanding of our needs - even coming back a second time as we had a hard time deciding on what we wanted. Their team worked quickly and did a great job installing some beautiful new doors. We noticed after the installation that there were some imperfections on the hardware installed and they have agreed to replace them & their customer service was top notch. They responded quickly to some minor concerns and went above and beyond to fix the problem. While doors are never cheap, their price was right in line with other Provia vendors and 1/2 the price of Pella vendors. I'd highly recommend them."

FAQs for egress window service projects in Fort Washington, MD
The cost to install an egress window is $3,900 on average. This cost can be as low as $2,500 or as high as $5,300, depending on the window size, the number of egress windows installed, and the glass quality.
Double-pane windows average between $200 and $500per window, whereas single-pane windows are more cost-effective at $100 to $400. More luxurious triple-pane windows are more expensive, ranging from $300 to $800 on average.
It can take up to three days to install an egress window. The window installation team will typically spend the first two days excavating the land where the window will go. If you’re replacing an egress window, it will be spent cutting the foundational wall to accommodate the window, if needed. Often, a window inspection is required to verify that the window was sized and installed correctly.
An egress window is similar to a regular window. However, this type of window opens fully to allow people to escape the home or rescue personnel to enter the home if an emergency occurs. Egress windows are required in all finished basements before they can be considered a living space.
Not only does an egress window add value to your home, but it’s also a basement requirement in most areas. Egress windows offer a 70% return on investment, making them a worthwhile purchase and installation. In addition, most building codes require an egress window to be used as an emergency exit and entrance. Therefore, it is a necessary addition to meet building codes.
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.
