"Just recently had a 48in x 48in egress window installed in our basement. The 2 gentlemen, Caleb & Graham were nothing short of awesome. I'm a retired carpenter and I can say their craftsmanship was second to none. Clean, precise. I was enjoying the perfect gape in our foundation and the framework even before they installed the window, because it was being done properly. Heck, even the hole they dug for the well was precise. Both Caleb & Graham were very friendly, communicative and courteous. Would use again and highly recommend."

"Mike arrived a week before install date to give an estimate. Very punctual (actually slightly early which was great) and provided a fee sheet for installation of glass block windows.  <br /> On day of install, punctual arrival and tidy preparation for installation of windows. Team was very efficient in the removal of 4 traditional frame windows in my basement and one elderly glass block window that was deteriorating. Clean-up and debris was hauled away. Team installed 5 windows in approximately 2 hours. Neat, efficient, professional team. I would rehire if I ever need additional glass block services. <br />"

"It went well. I was very impressed with how the windows did during the polar vortex! They did make a difference and they look very nice. I replaced 4 windows and they did inserts to save on having to redo some siding on the outside of the house and then I also did not have to work on restaining the surround wood. I would however I think preferred some new wood as when they put in one of the windows they really scraped up the wood a lot. The screens for the windows are not my favorite and even those working for the company say the same. Apparently the supplier changed the screens. They are just flimsy but otherwise I think they will be fine. Really nice I can open my window from either side if I want. Let's say you want your window open at night but not directly one you, you can open the other side to get some area. When I compared with other estimates for the MUCH lower price of these windows I'm extremely happy! I paid a little extra to have the white part of the window done in a wood grain and that looks really nice in the bedrooms. I have some more older windows to replace and I do feel I would hire this company again."

"It took some time to get our custom made-to-order window due to glass shortages and Covid, but when the installers arrived they did an amazingly efficient job. In just a few hours one afternoon, they replaced our old leaking window & woodwork with a beautiful triple pane window, and no more leaks. Installers were very professional, polite, and thorough. They even brought treats for our dogs and put up with our German Shepherd's supervision. The price for the window was very competitive, and it comes with a lifetime guarantee."

"The whole process was great. The guys that came out to replace my windows did not leave any mess behind and did a great job at replacing my window. In addition, all the staff I came across were really nice. I'm so glad I chose Universal Window."
