Great company, they replaced all of our windows before and we brought them back for a tub/shower replacement. Project manager Rex and installers Bill and Billy were wonderful. Won't hesitate to call them again.

The project went wonderfully. In June of 2024, Hegedus Hardscapes removed an old 1970’s porch, and installed a beautiful, new Unilock porch with adequate drainage, using adequate pitch and new pipes. The overall look is exceptional, like a European grotto, with a perimeter edged in sandstone....

We replaced 8 basement windows with glass block (a few with vents) and the process was GREAT! Tyson Williams and Anthony were our two installers and they were prompt, professional, very courteous, and friendly. They got all the work done, with clean up within 4 hours! We LOVE the new windows...

I will only go to Barefoot floors from now on. Only waited 5 weeks for installation which is amazing. The work they did was above perfect. They even passed along the sale the carpet mill was having on to us. Not many do that. I’m very pleased!

Fire Pit Installation questions, answered by experts

According to the National Fire Protection Association, dryers and washing machines cause over 15,000 fires a year, with dryers causing about 92 percent of those fires. Because dryer fires are more common than you might think, it’s important to clear the lint trap regularly and have annual dryer vent cleanings.

Most installations take 1-3 days, depending on system complexity and building size.

Yes, you need to leave your chimney damper open when burning a creosote log so that smoke and other debris doesn’t waft into your house as it’s burning. You’ll need to make sure your damper is fully open, even when the log continues to smoke, until it’s completely out and cold.

Grounding is a great first step to prevent electrical shock, but you can take it further with GFCI outlets and AFCIs (arc fault circuit interrupters). In particular, AFCIs help protect against the type of electrical arcs that cause fires, like if a mouse chews on a wire or your laptop starts overheating at the wall. These are required in some areas of your home.

Glass block windows aren’t fire hazards; fire-rated glass block windows can increase your home’s fire safety. Modern glass blocks are made with materials that can resist high temperatures and prevent fire spread. Most offer a 45-minute fire rating, while some increase it to two hours. Compared to the typical 20 to 90 minute rating for a double-pane window, glass block can increase your home’s safety in the event of a fire.
