"Time frame needed compromise, this can be expected this time of year. Completed work and repairs on a tiny house including trim, door replacement and repair, floor repair, kitchen cupboards repaired, bathroom shower placed, etc. Positive: work done and finished with professional repair and customer satisfaction Negative: timeline, inadequate budget quote"

"Bill was excellent! He always replied to my calls or emails. We set up an appointment and he was there when promised. He, along with another carpenter, Bob, did an outstanding job. They were well organized, showing me what they were doing all along the way, and finished in a timely manner. Bill even charged me less than the original quote (almost half). It is difficult to find contractors that are responsible, honest and that do quality work. I HIGHLY recommend QHI for any services you may need around your home."

"The installers of the wallboard were quick and efficient. Did a great job hanging in our new 16 x 32 family room. Even with some of the patch work in other areas of the house they ensured the surrounding wallboard had screws to adequately cover the area before the taper came in. The man that taped and mudded was a true professional. His corners and seams are clean and overall the expertise of the entire crew was exceptional. I would certainly hire this company again."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

Egress windows are typically required for basements with habitable space or living quarters. Not all basements or lower levels require egress windows. However, egress windows are required in homes with living spaces such as bedrooms and living rooms in a basement. The International Residential Code and International Building Code require sleeping rooms to have a specific size egress window. Check your local building codes to confirm the requirements in your area.

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, you absolutely need a permit to add a window to your house. Your contractor can likely obtain this permit on your behalf. Ask about this when getting quotes from multiple window contractors.

The entire window replacement process, from the initial consultation to the final installation, typically takes between four and 15 weeks. This timeline accounts for measuring appointments, ordering, and manufacturing. On the day of the job, the physical installation takes about 30 minutes to two hours per window. A full-house replacement can take one to three days to complete. Factors that can extend this timeline include the total number of windows, custom sizes, complex window types, second-story installations, and any necessary repairs to existing window frames or openings.

DIY is possible for experienced individuals. Professional installation ensures compliance with building codes and proper sealing.
