They found more cracks, fixed those as well as installing a window well drain. My basement is as dry as a bone!! Great company to work with and great prices too!"

""Disorganized, not honest, potentially scamming customers out of thousands" The prior owner spent over 22K on window replacements in 2014. In 2018 (a year after I moved in) 2 windows had developed a seal failure and spotting that began to worsen. I first contacted PHRG in 2019 for a replacement. They stated there was a 15 month wait time for replacement. Fast forward to dozens of phone calls, emails and false promised dates of delivery and 2 additional windows that developed a seal failure. In response to my latest request for an update, I received a generic email with a difficult to read chart that showed new "promised" date for May 31, 2023 for the original window! This is after they told me my installation was scheduled for October 28th 2022! So, someone told me the window was ready to be installed last week and then another email indicated it hadn't even arrived at the warehouse! It is hard to believe they will ever decide to honor their warranty. Now I am stuck with windows that look like the pictures below and looking to pay out of pocket for the badly installed windows this company put in, in 2014. With a Lifetime warranty.... Please reconsider choosing this company. They have very poor customer service and are extremely disorganized at best and outright lying to customers at worst."

Building codes call for a window well that sits at least eight inches below the bottom of the window and extends six inches past each side. A quick way to get the minimum dimensions is to add 12 inches to the window’s width and eight inches to its height. For egress windows, most areas require a minimum of 36 inches by 36 inches and a depth of approximately three to five feet to provide a safe emergency exit.
Adding a drain is the best way to keep water from pooling in the well and leaking into the basement. Connecting the well to a French drain or sump pump channels runoff away from the foundation, and proper grading supports the system by directing water downhill. If you notice standing water or moisture, talk with a pro about upgrading the drainage before it compromises the structure.
Plan to replace the window well once you notice persistent leaks, water pooling, rust, or cracking—any indication that the well is no longer protecting the basement. Handling the project quickly safeguards the foundation and avoids costly repairs down the road by stopping moisture before it spreads. Consult a window installation pro for an inspection to see if it’s time to replace your window well.
