"Back in April, my wife and I hired John Pinto (Go Carpenter) to address the following 4 issues at the house we recently purchased. 1) Installation of a fire door for the utility\laundry room 2) Repair of the main door which had cracks in the frame and would not close properly. 3) Repair of a sliding closet door in the basement apartment 4) Soundproofing the kitchen door leading to the basement Starting from the initial phone call onward, John was hands down one of the most responsive, professional and honest individuals, I have ever hired. He performed an initial walkthrough to meet and better capture the scope of the work so he knew what exact materials to purchase. It was during this visit that he found that there was no need to replace the entire main door frame. Instead, he suggested we try to use longer screws to anchor the door to the wall stud. Also, he found the kitchen door did not need to replaced. He suggested that he install a door sweep and better insulation lining around gaps in the door frame. It has been nearly two months since the work was done. I can honestly say that his suggestions were spot on, worked without fail and were highly cost effective. Speaking of pricing, that is another reason why I liked John’s approach. He charged us a flat rate for the labor based on the amount of time he estimated the project would take him and his colleague. He then purchased the materials and we simply reimbursed him based on the receipts when he was done. We knew exactly what products he purchased and installed and how much they cost. This method provides completely transparency and I appreciated it. All in all, John and his team were complete professionals and I am planning on hiring them for future projects in the house. He is an excellent contractor!"

"Our original vendor disappeared. Harold and his team came in and really fixed all the problems and even worked late nights, sat/sun, to fix and complete the job. They went over and above the requested work and made our new home finally livable. We are grateful to them for everything they did"

"I just had 5 windows installed in my home. The 2 guys that did the work George and Derick were not only professional but extremely polite. They took out my old windows and carted them away. My new windows look beautiful. They completely cleaned up the debris. When they left you would have not even known they were here. I highly recommend this company. I will surely use them again for some more window replacement and my front door. Great Company. Plus the price was great."

"I got 3 estimates and this company was the best price. From the free estimate to completion of work, everything was so professional. They showed up on time with a 7-man crew, so the job was completed in one day. Six years after the job was done, my basement is still bone dry - so dry it actually gets dusty! My crawlspace is so low a person can only crawl around, but they did a great job there, as well, installing a thick white vapor barrier."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

Yes, egress windows must meet local building codes for size and accessibility. Professional installers ensure compliance.

There are a range of egress window types available, including:

  • Single-hung: $100–$400

  • Double-hung: $250–$500

  • Horizontal/sliding: $150–$800

  • Casement: $200–$500

  • In-swing: $350–$700

When choosing a type of egress window, consider how you’d like to open it. For example, double-hung egress windows open from top to bottom and let plenty of fresh air in, whereas sliding windows slide open for easy access.  

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.

A good U-factor for windows is 0.30 or lower, but they can range from 0.20 to 1.20. A general rule of thumb when it comes to the U-factor is that the lower, the better.

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?
