"Replaced and installed new gutters with guards. Repaired rotted facia. Installation was quick and professional. Very impressed with professionalism of installers and quality of materials and work."
"Universal Windows Direct of Manchester provided not only prompt, professional, and preferred service, they also provided a peace of mind for the service they provided. The owner personally visited my home and suggested several suggestions to address my concerns. Never was I pressured, pursued, or offered a product which I had not asked. Universal Windows Direct offered me the security that I knew that this was a company of integrity and honesty. So much so, that when the work was done, I was not home. Unbelievable! And, when I returned home from work on the day of my new window installation, all I could see was the view from my new window...windex'd cleaned, with no evidence that they has ever been in my house. Universal Windows Direct of Manchester treated my home- as their home, with respect and responsibility. They not only met my concerns, they under promised and very much over delivered. Would I use them again...you bet, in a flash! Thank you Universal Windows Direct of Manchester. Doug Robinson, Derry, NH 03038"
"We recently hired Jared and his team to completely renovate the exterior of our building, including replacing the siding, windows, doors, and roof. From start to finish, they were incredibly hands-on and focused on customer satisfaction, making sure every aspect of the project met our expectations and requirements. Their pricing was the most competitive of the contractors we considered, but what really impressed us was the quality of the workmanship. The craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding and reflected the skill of seasoned professionals who take pride in their work. The crew efficiently removed the old siding and immediately installed a weather barrier to protect the building before replacing the windows and doors. All of the materials used were high quality, and the finished product exceeded our expectations. The CertainTeed vinyl siding looks fantastic and came out exactly as described, giving the building a clean, sharp, and updated appearance."
"Great experience all around. Estimate was timely and reasonable, installers were friendly and went the extra mile to ensure they were doing things as I expected. Highly recommended!"
Yes, you can always make an existing window bigger, but the job complexity varies widely depending on the location of the window and the framing around it. Exterior walls are always load-bearing, so making windows wider will require structural changes that make for a more complex but doable project. Making windows taller often won’t require structural changes.
Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.
Most professionals can install a window well in two to three days, depending on the size of the well and the window you want inside it. If you’re just replacing an existing window well, the work is much less intensive, and most experts can get the job done in just one day. Connecting the window well to a drainage system or installing a custom concrete window well will naturally take longer, but even the most complicated installations shouldn’t take more than three days.
Yes, egress windows can significantly add value to a home. By making basement and attic areas safer and more livable, they allow you to market these spaces as finished living areas, which increases your property's value. Many homeowners can recover the full installation cost, with some sources citing a return on investment of around 70%. The exact value added depends on your specific home, location, and adherence to local building codes. Beyond financial value, egress windows enhance functionality by adding natural light and comfort. They are also a crucial safety feature, often mandated by building codes to serve as an emergency exit.
Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.
