"I found a good sized crack in my floor when I pulled up the carpet for new flooring. I called Herculese Foundation out of Austin and made an appointment. They were very professional. and the came and checked the foundation with a meter and even with the crack there was only about an 1/8 of an inch difference in the in the corners of the house. I was very relived that I was not facing a large repair bill and now I continue with installing new flooring."

"Excellent. I shopped around to several different companies looking for price and quality of service for 17 windows I was having replaced on our home. Zeus Windows price for the quality of window was very competitive and about $20,000 less than the leading replacement widow company. The best part was not having to sit through a four hour sales presentation from a sales rep who didn't want to take no for an answer. Everything can be handled online or over the phone and you get detailed schematics so you know it will be correct, very easy. I also was really satisfied with the the installation company they work with called Vance, I'm a little picky when it comes to work on our home and these guys did an excellent job. They used heat to remove the old windows so there was little mess and they were fast, efficient and thorough. Got it all done in one day. Very satisfied."

Can't say enough positive things about my experience with Window City from the initial meeting to the install. I was in need of replacing all 11 of my old metal windows in my ranch style home. After getting 4 different bids I choose Window City - what a great choice!! Greg walked me through the product details, the estimate was really the final cost!! Everyone was very professional, knowledgeable of their craft and VERY respective of my personal property both inside my home and outside. Ron and Elijah did the install - they are very hard working, know what they're doing, work very well together, professional, respective of property, cleaned up after they were done and I don't know how they managed to finish the job in the pouring rain. They kept everything dry but themselves. They should really be commended for their fantastic efforts to get the job done in one day!!

My home is now very soundproof, airtight, secure  and very pleasing to the eyes with the Vista Window.  I've already recommended Window City to my friends, neighbors and co-workers and will continue to do so.  Thank you Window City!!

"Thanks to everyone at Gulf Coast Windows who were involved with our latest window order. This includes Andy, Nicole, Hailey, Brennan, Anthony, Jimmy, Carmello and anyone else who helped. In the past , we replaced a few windows at a time. It took us (6) six of (10) ten years to completely replace all the windows in our home. For (4) four years, we did other improvements to our home. Window replacement has made our home much more comfortable. Thank you Gulf Coast Windows."

"Dustin was courteous and did a good job on this project. The tree was big, so it was a challenge. He hired a company to come out to pick up the tree debris, and it took them a couple of days to actually pick up the debris, but it was finally taken away. And the work on the roof was great. I'd hire Dustin again. He does the work, and his sweet wife answers the business phone. They're a good team."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

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.  

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.

Most professionals can enlarge a window in five to 10 hours, depending on the window location, the exterior wall material, how easy it is to cut through it, and how much buildback you’ll need after the installation is complete. However, more complex projects can take two to three days from start to finish.

The average cost to install an egress window is approximately $3,900, with a typical range between $2,500 and $5,300, though costs can be higher. The final price is influenced by several factors, including the window's size, type, material, and glass quality. Other variables include labor costs, location, excavation needs, and whether permits or a structural engineer consultation are required. The price of the window itself often depends on the number of panes:

  • Single-pane: $100–$400

  • Double-pane: $200–$500

  • Triple-pane: $300–$800

Additional features like window wells or covers will also increase the total project cost. It is advisable to obtain multiple quotes from professionals to get a comprehensive understanding of the expenses for your specific project.

Yes, you can always make an existing window bigger, but the job complexity varies widely depending on the location of the window and the framing around it. Exterior walls are always load-bearing, so making windows wider will require structural changes that make for a more complex but doable project. Making windows taller often won’t require structural changes.
