Customers say: Quality work

"Fogg's Painting & Construction replaced all of the screws and washers on my house's and attached garage's roof. Their crew showed up on time, were knowledgeable about what needed to be done, and couldn't have worked any harder or more efficiently. I was impressed with their conscientiousness, their respectfulness of my property, the exceptional cleanup job, suggestions, and trustworthiness. I would use them again and recommend them without reservation."

"easy peasy. i brought the window sash in and they measured it up. within a week they had the glass in house and called me promptly for an appointment. brought the window sash back and it took about 20 minutes for them to replace the glass. and they taught me the proper lingo! <br /> also of note: they do repairs at your locale for an additional charge. <br /> beautiful new show room. <br /> STRONGLY RECOMMEND. <br />"

"It was great. They're very helpful. I think that they've been above and beyond. I would use them again for sure. Marvin windows are expensive. I'm still having issues with opening and closing the door."

"<p>I am a 88 years old widowed woman. I live on a very limited income of social security and a small pension my husband left when he died in March 2013. In May 2013 my hot water tank wouldn't work any longer. I was almost broke due to the funeral cost of burying my husband. I called 6 local plumbers (Crouch Sons Plumbing, Hearn Plumbing Company, Hoyt Lane & Sons Plumbing, Fuller Plumbing, Beck Boys Plumbing and Shoals MPE) hoping one would take the $386,00 that I could afford to pay and replace my hot water tank. Everyone of them gave me a bid of 650 to over a 1000 dollars to replace it. I explained to each one how much I had and why and each one said they just couldn't help me. I went May 2013 thru December 2013  without hot water, I took sponge baths over my sink after I warmed water on my stove.</p> <p>At Church one Sunday I asked someone if they knew anyone that did hot water tank work, and I was given a card of Sweet Home Repairs. I called them and Eric and Rodger came to my home and after I explained  my situation they left for Lowes and returned about a hour later with a hot water tank and installed it. I offered to pay them the 700 dollars I had saved to replace it but Mr. Denton and his worker Rodger refused the payment. I insisted and again they refused but said they would except a bowl of spaghetti and meat balls that I was cooking for dinner guest I was having over that night. I gladly paid them. They thank me for lunch and away they left. I have never gotten to truly thank them but they both are wonderful young men. Please hire them they a wonderful company unlike others I mentioned.</p>"

The primary installation of an egress window usually takes about three days. Additional time may be needed for excavation, wall cutting, and finishing work, especially if structural modifications are involved. The timeline also depends on the window's availability and proper sizing.

Yes, improper installation can compromise your home's foundation and structural integrity. To prevent costly damage and ensure safety, it's essential to hire a qualified professional who can install the egress window correctly.

Yes, building codes require egress windows or doors in finished basements designated as habitable spaces. Every living area must have an approved exit point for safety and emergency egress. Unfinished basements used solely for storage may be exempt.
