"Outstanding work by true Masters of their professions. The window installers were professional and Timely. The two siding installers worked diligently and were true gentleman throughout. Mr. Harrison, the contractor, is very personable. His was not the lowest bid but he offered a sense of confidence that led me to choose him spite of the higher cost. It was clearly worth the Gamble. The final product is the Envy of my neighborhood."

"Hired Retro Foam of Philadelphia to install foam insulation on 3 sides of my townhouse on Wildwood Crest. They did a great job, the team of Frank, Mike, Kevin and Keith were very respectful of our property, They were very friendly and mannerly during the process. when they left, you did not even know they were at my home. Great Job Bob/Jackie Marnie"
"Perfect. I scheduled an appointment on the Angi app, and Mike came on time. He thoroughly reviewed the damaged siding on our initial visit. The original siding around our carport had a cap over the top that fell away, and the team came up with a different way to attach the siding so that problem wouldn't happen again. The crew arrived on time on the repair day, completed the task, and reviewed it with me before leaving. They provided excellent communication and service throughout the whole process. I highly recommend them and will be calling on them again for future remodeling needs!"

"Mike provided various siding samples for me to review. I was uncertain with my selection of color. However, Mike left the samples and patiently waited for my decision. The install crew was excellent and I'm absolutely happy with the color and the overall experience. Excellent customer service from beginning to end!!! I will definitely use for future needs."
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.
Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.
Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.
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.
Most professionals can install a window well in two to three days, depending on the size of the well and the window you want inside it. If you’re just replacing an existing window well, the work is much less intensive, and most experts can get the job done in just one day. Connecting the window well to a drainage system or installing a custom concrete window well will naturally take longer, but even the most complicated installations shouldn’t take more than three days.
