"I was really happy with Sol Solutions. They were prompt in coming to assess the cost of installing gutters, and when they realized I needed a little less than I had needed under the terms of the online deal (for a fixed number of feet), they gave me a competitive price for extending the gutters even past the linear amount allowed in the deal, so that we didn't waste any of the deal. Installation was prompt (a few days after the estimate). Since the gutters were installed, they have functioned quite well (I'm writing this about a year later). What's not to like?"

"I needed some work done with framing some new spaces in a remodel.  I liked the crew they sent and we got the work done at a very reasonable price.  However, I know that if I just called in randomly I could have had a totally different crew/experience.  The work was done very quickly but to the point were some of the details were forgotten.  Overall my experience was worth while and a good one."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
