"True North Contracting is very attentive to my requests, does outstanding work, cleans up their worksite, have a great attitude and no foul language. I am very happy with my new bathroom. I would hire them for another project and I may."
"Bill is great to work with. He does everything. We actually asked him to give us an estimate on a paint job to do next spring, but while he was here, he pointed out problems with part of our roof, plus trouble with gutters that were funneling water to siding that was rotted. Itâ s all fixed and we are looking forward to working with him in the spring. It was all more expensive that we expected, but I think we got good value for our money."
"I hired Matt to prepare a site for a shed we have ordered. He replied promptly for a request for an estimate. He explained what needed to be done and gave me a fixed date when he could do the work. Throughout the project, he kept me apprised of the progress and explained the choices that needed to be made. I was impressed with the care with which he approached every aspect of the project. Just a great guy to work with."
"They showed up on time each day, were very knowledgeable of the work they performed. Showed up for the quote when we scheduled the first meeting and we were very impressed with the overall experience. The deck they built was spot on and perfect for our needs. They did make some recommendations as to how it would look and work better for us and we went with their decisions and are so happy and impressed. They were very neat about their work and very easy to talk with. I would never use anyone else, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them for whatever you need. So great to work with."
"They did a wonderful job. The owner of this company was very thorough and gave me a good price. I like him a lot because they were very thoughtful, clean, neat, and I had nothing but good to say about them."
"Despite a comedy of errors in scheduling (Major Snowstorms on two occasions) Dave was great, communicative, prompt, courteous and professional. He worked around my schedule and had the job done in time for me not to be even a minute late to work. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED."
"The service man was very friendly, prompt and explained the services that they recommended in detail. Their prices were a little high, and with my insurance, I used another provider."
"Finished bathroom is beautiful! Work included demo of a wall into an adjacent room- Dan was amazing at keeping the mess contained, which we really appreciated. Great workmanship and attention to detail, would definitely recommend!"
Most professionals can enlarge a window in five to 10 hours, depending on the window location, the exterior wall material, how easy it is to cut through it, and how much buildback you’ll need after the installation is complete. However, more complex projects can take two to three days from start to finish.
To find and hire a reputable contractor for an egress window installation, you should first research local professionals and then vet your top candidates. Start by searching for local contractors who specialize in this type of work, read their customer reviews, and examine their website and portfolio. Once you have a shortlist, contact them to ask key questions: Are you licensed and insured? What is your specific experience installing egress windows? Can you provide references from previous customers? Do you perform the work yourself or use subcontractors? What is the estimated project timeline and your current schedule? How do you handle payment?
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.
Costs depend on window size, type, material, and labor. Custom shapes or sizes typically incur higher expenses; full installation includes removing old windows.
They meet local code demands for escape routes, lighten basements, and aid in reducing overall humidity.
