Egress Window - Install

Serving Downey, ID and surrounding areas

"The best part were the installers. They did a great job installing and cleaning up after the job. The part I had a problem with, was Andrew didn't communicate with me on the order status. When we ordered the windows (during Covid) the first week of June, the sales guys said it would be 5 weeks. After 8 weeks I called Andrew. His voice mail was full, and I couldn't get in contact with him. I went to the office and no one was there that day. The next week I went by the office again. I was able to talk to the office gal and after that Andrew called me and said windows were coming in August. When the windows were finally getting installed they realized two of the windows came in the wrong size! So they reordered them and another 5 weeks of waiting. So finely the last week of October the last two windows were installed. Needless to say it was a very frustrating experience. Just need to communicate better, the product is a good quality product."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

Yes, egress windows can significantly add value to a home. By making basement and attic areas safer and more livable, they allow you to market these spaces as finished living areas, which increases your property's value. Many homeowners can recover the full installation cost, with some sources citing a return on investment of around 70%. The exact value added depends on your specific home, location, and adherence to local building codes. Beyond financial value, egress windows enhance functionality by adding natural light and comfort. They are also a crucial safety feature, often mandated by building codes to serve as an emergency exit.

Yes, you absolutely need a permit to add a window to your house. Your contractor can likely obtain this permit on your behalf. Ask about this when getting quotes from multiple window contractors.

Basements are generally required to have windows for your safety. At a minimum, windows should provide an egress in the event of a fire. But basement windows do more than offer a way out; basement windows also offer natural light and ventilation in an area of your home that is otherwise dark and musty.

The entire window replacement process, from the initial consultation to the final installation, typically takes between four and 15 weeks. This timeline accounts for measuring appointments, ordering, and manufacturing. On the day of the job, the physical installation takes about 30 minutes to two hours per window. A full-house replacement can take one to three days to complete. Factors that can extend this timeline include the total number of windows, custom sizes, complex window types, second-story installations, and any necessary repairs to existing window frames or openings.

If improperly installed, an egress window can compromise your foundation’s structural integrity, so it’s important to work with a pro to ensure your foundation remains in good shape. Any money you may save on a DIY egress window installation may cost you in the long run if your foundation is damaged in the process.
