"excellent workers from first estimate to completed job. Estimator Demetrius Dotson very patient in inspecting what needed to be done and answering questions in a way I could understand. To do the job, workers Aaron and his brother Lyndonn kept us informed of arrival time and explained what they will be doing. Excellent work and even helped put back some items in to the garage (one was very heavy} in areas that would not affect the work done. Beyond expectations for me and I thank them all."

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.

Depending on size, material, and labor, two windows can cost between $600 and $1,600.

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.

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

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.
