"This provider is one for the most honest and professional I've ever met - upon arrival he immediately told me that he is not the guy for the job - the windows in my house should be wood and he does not do wood windows. Despite it he proceeded to give me all the information needed for the project. And it was much needed indeed - I had been completely clueless about window replacement. He spent close to an hour telling me everything I need to know and he was very honest and extremely knowledgeable. He answered all my questions. Now I understand why this company has so many good reviews - they've been in business for two decades and they really care about the quality. Just because he wanted our house to look the best he walked away from a huge contract ( we need close to thirty windows!!!). I wish all contractors were like that!! I can not wait to find another job to give to this contractor ! I am really impressed"

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

There are a few ways to save money on egress window installation. First, choosing pre-fabricated windows instead of custom windows can help dramatically reduce the overall cost. In addition, skipping window extras, like customized frames or window film, can help save money on the price tag without sacrificing the window itself. You should also shop around to multiple window installers to find the best installation deal without sacrificing the quality of the window.

Egress windows are typically required for basements with habitable space or living quarters. Not all basements or lower levels require egress windows. However, egress windows are required in homes with living spaces such as bedrooms and living rooms in a basement. The International Residential Code and International Building Code require sleeping rooms to have a specific size egress window. Check your local building codes to confirm the requirements in your area.

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.

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.

Yes, you absolutely need a permit to add a window to your house. Your contractor can likely obtain this permit on your behalf. Ask about this when getting quotes from multiple window contractors.
