"I was very pleased with my finished products I had waited a very long time to have a bathroom installed on the first floor. The problem was that I had very little space where it could be placed. I worked with Jake from West Penn who designed a perfect small bathroom for me when others said it couldn't be done......and it turned out to be not only modern and functional but BEAUTIFUL too! They also remodeled the adjacent laundry room and entrance and added a closet that, when completed, blended in perfectly with the room decor. I was very pleased with all that was done. Jake was easy to work with and provided helpful suggestions that I appreciated and used. The workers were super -- personable, skilled and professional, and punctual as well. As is often the case when working on an old house, there were a few unexpected problems that needed addressed before work on the bathroom could continue. I was both grateful and impressed that when the job was finished I was not charged a single penney above the price that I was quoted at the beginning. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone. In fact I have done just that and they are now contracted to do several projects for my daughter. Thank you so much Jake and staff!"

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

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.

Finding a reputable contractor for an egress window installation involves researching and vetting potential candidates. Start by searching for local professionals, reading customer reviews, and checking their websites for a portfolio of their work.

Once you have a shortlist, ask the following questions to ensure they are qualified:

• Are you licensed and insured?

• What experience do you have 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?

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.

Adding windows to a house is expensive. Budget roughly $5,800 to add a single window, and double or triple that to add two or three. In some cases, adding a single window can exceed $20,000, depending on the type of exterior wall, the size of the window, the type of window, local permit costs, and other factors.

Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.
