"The contractor was hired to do our project. The craftsmanship is excellent and attention to detail is amazing. They have kept the area clean at all times and very willing to make any necessary or requested changes. My only commplaints would be that there is no communication from them. We call, we text, we email.... but nothing for days, maybe a week. The communication has caused a lot of frustration from this side due to the fact that we are from out of state having this done. The project deadline has been exceeded and we still can not get any information from the builder."

Egress Windows questions, answered by experts

Most modern egress windows installed in basements open outward into a window well, although some older homes have in-swing windows. Egress windows, like casement windows used in other parts of the home, such as bedrooms and bathrooms, may open inward, and these windows are often larger than outward-opening windows.

DIY is possible for experienced individuals. Professional installation ensures compliance with building codes and proper sealing.

Egress windows require regular maintenance to ensure they function correctly. This includes cleaning the glass, inspecting the frame and well for debris, and making sure the cover or well drains properly. It is also important to check that the window sills and wells are watertight and to inspect and repair any damage to the window frame or seals to prevent leaks and maintain functionality.

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.

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.
