"We are completely delighted. Everything went perfectly. Danny, our sales representative, was great at explaining options, and was always available for questions. The expert installers, Andreas and Dmitri, were fun to work with, responsive to our requests, and even installed our new doorbell. I look forward to working with this excellent company again for new windows."

"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."

"TMC Construction were life savers. My basement had flooded and the mess was over whelming. I had used them once before to renovate my porch. I explained to the owner how important it was for them to come asap and they came the next day. They not only cleaned out all the garbage, they stuck around and helped me clean up. I had called other places first because I didn't know they would remove garbage. Everyone else was more expensive. I'm so glad I called them. I highly recommend them. They were timely and professional.

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

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

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.

Because egress windows are meant for emergency exiting and entering, they need to be an accessible size. The smallest an egress window is allowed to be is 15 inches in width and height, with an opening of around 4 square feet.

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.

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.
