Q: How deep do you install a window well?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: What is the smallest egress window allowed?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: Can pros handle installations in non-standard windows?

• <div><p>Yes, with modifications or the use of adapter kits for tricky placements.</p></div>

Q: Are there building codes related to egress window installation?

• <div><p>Expect excavation below grade, creating a well for access, weatherproofing, and thorough inspections during setup.</p></div>

Beautifully! We have had Jon cleaning our gutters since 2010. He always does an excellent job, including clean-up. This is the first time we also had him do the exterior of our windows. They sparkle! He is one of the most dependable service providers we have had. I highly recommend him.

Windows are scratched from their attempt to remove spots. They must have used a really sharp tool to do so. I have not yet called them but will do so tomorrow. Not at all happy with that part of the service.
