"I invited 3 firms to give me a quote. This company did contact me but I decided not to have them visit my home and develop a quote. I asked them to forgive my contact to them since I had other quotes. They are a good company, but I did not need another company to quote my project."

"Greene Construction Inc was amazing. The best contractor I have ever had and will use them again for sure. First they installed the egress window for us and the next day came back to build a pine wall and door so our middle child could have his own bedroom. It took two full days and it was worth it. Both mornings they showed up at 8 AM and worked until it was done. They cleaned up well after the work was done as well. The company is great and I recommend them to all. TJ and Gary do great work and are really nice guys and they know what they are doing. Demian, who is the owner - is the kind of contractor you want - A great one. He was on vacation when I first contact him and he got back to me right away to set up a meeting. A contractor that actually wants business - finally! Friendly, honest, great work and prompt.
"In Spring 2012, we obtained quotes from three companies to tear out two existing retaining walls along the driveway and re-build them using Versalok, excavate and grade the backyard, and build a 3.5 - 4 foot retaining wall in the backyard using the stone from the old retaining walls. Genadek had the middle quote; they were also the only company to follow up with a phone call. The whole job took about 4 1/2 weeks. Stan, Mike, Tim, Rob and Andrew were very professional and friendly; our neighbors even raved about them. They cleaned up the job site at the end of each day and communicated frequently so there were no surprises. My only recommendation to those interested in hiring Genadek is to get on their schedule early. Their calendar books up fast! "
"We are incredibly satisfied overall. Rick was great to work with from the initial meeting up until the end. You can tell this company believes in integrity and quality. We made a great choice and we hope this will help the next person make the right choice."
"I had a set of cabinets added to my kitchen, and they match the old ones perfectly! Jason always answered my questions quickly, and they worked very cleanly when installing. The end result is exactly what I was looking for."
Yes, you can install a bay window in an existing house. You’ll need to have a structural engineer draw up plans to add the necessary support to your exterior load-bearing walls and a general contractor to make the changes to the framing around the new wall opening. This will cost an average of $3,000. After that work is done, a window installer can set the new bay window in place.
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.
Because egress windows are meant for emergency exiting and entering, they need to be an accessible size. The smallest an egress window is allowed to be is 15 inches in width and height, with an opening of around 4 square feet.
Installing a window well costs anywhere from $500 to $1,500 or more. Adding an egress window and well runs about $3,900 on average. Adding a window well cover to the project can add $200 to $700. A well cover helps protect your egress windows from weather damage and keeps them clear of dirt, debris, and wildlife.
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.
