"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."
"The guys were a great team. They showed up on time, communicated well with each other, and cleaned up any mess they made. There was quite a gap of time between when they finished the porch and came back to finish the ceiling (a small part was due to electrical work) because they overbooked themselves, but they kept in contact with me about it and successfully completed the job. Only complaint at this point is I contacted them after the job was done about something I had that went missing, and they never returned my messages. Will be placing a phone call to try and remedy the situation."
"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."
"Dan is an accomplished professional, responsive, easy to talk to and very accommodating to any requests we had. His work is excellent, knowledgeable in all aspects of home maintenance, pays attention to details, and maintains a neat and clean work area. Dan worked both inside and outside our home. We would not hesitate to have him back for any future project. Here's an example of one project Dan completed for usâ ¦ Years of water intrusion had weakened an area near our front door and a chipmunk borrowed through the siding and made a home. After humanely evicting the critter, we were left with a hole in the side of the house and damaged molding on the front door. We contacted Dan and discovered water had damaged all of the lower clapboards in the front of the house, and they needed replacement. In addition, some of the underlying sheathing, base plate, and studs had rotted and needed to be replaced. Further complicating matters, the pilaster molding along one side of the front door was ruined and a replacement was no longer available from the manufacturer. Dan quickly and professionally made all the repairs â including fashioning a new pilaster molding from scratch. To prevent future water intrusion, he was careful to seal and prime where appropriate -- including places only Dan would ever see. After he painted the siding and varnished the front door threshold it all looked better than new."
Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.
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.
You install a window well 8 to 12 inches deeper than the base of the window sill. After filling the well with drainage rock, the well should sit 3 inches below the bottom of the window. The top of the window well should also be at least 3 inches higher than the surface-grade ground. The window well should be about 6 inches wider than the window opening.
New window installation costs range from $300 to $1,500 per window, depending on size, material, and energy efficiency features.
The primary benefits of an egress window include providing a safe emergency exit, increasing natural light in a space like a basement, and improving ventilation. Additionally, installing an egress window can often increase your property's value.
