"Fox Creek Buillders did a great job taking off my old wood siding, replacing multiple rotten window sills outside, wrapping all wood around windows, installing new gutters. Couldn’t be happier with the finished project. Max was great to deal with and helped me so much picking out the siding. Juan and his workers worked so hard and were always there on time. I would definitely recommend them!!!"

"David was very professional and had great communication throughout the process. He explained what I needed and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. His crew was equally professional and considerate in making sure that they did a good job. They took precautions to make sure that there was no mess or damage done. Even installed an attic tent for us. I highly recommend David."
"Blue Crab was a great hire for our porch top rail replacement and gate installation. Zach was super communicative about project timeline and goals. Price was fair and work was completed quickly. Happy to hire for future work!"
"My wife and I can't be more happy with the roof replacement Falcon did this weekend. Dealing with Blake, Zeke, Eddie and the entire crew has been well above average. They were able to do a tear off, replace some wood and install shingles all on Saturday and didn't leave one speck of trash behind. Today the crew came and installed the gutters and leaf guards and they look as awesome as the roof. We would highly recommend this company for any of your roofing needs."
Egress windows require regular maintenance to ensure they function correctly. This includes cleaning the glass, inspecting the frame and well for debris, and making sure the cover or well drains properly. It is also important to check that the window sills and wells are watertight and to inspect and repair any damage to the window frame or seals to prevent leaks and maintain functionality.
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.
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.
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.
Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.
