"I am so thrilled and more than pleased with our new windows. Ever and his team were very professional, prompt, and efficient. And all these young men were extremely polite. My husband is recovering from surgery, and I asked if they could take care of the bedroom first before anything else. They were more than happy to accommodate us. We highly recommend Window Logic to anyone. (PS The city inspector said they did any excellent job with the installation.)"

".The installation crew (4) were fantastic they were on time and in El Paso, TX thats rare. They worked professionally and got the job done in a timely fashion, in less time than they origanally estimated. they said it was because I had a brick house, but the way they worked had a lot to do with it. As you can tell I am very happy with my purchase!

"The job went really well. They removed all of my old carpet and the trash that was made. They placed the new tile in a few days. My kids and I were on vacation so we were home, and it did not cause a huge mess for us. When they finished, they took all the trash away with them. Everyone has really loved my floors."

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.

Egress windows are typically required for basements with habitable space or living quarters. Not all basements or lower levels require egress windows. However, egress windows are required in homes with living spaces such as bedrooms and living rooms in a basement. The International Residential Code and International Building Code require sleeping rooms to have a specific size egress window. Check your local building codes to confirm the requirements in your area.

There are a range of egress window types available, including:

  • Single-hung: $100–$400

  • Double-hung: $250–$500

  • Horizontal/sliding: $150–$800

  • Casement: $200–$500

  • In-swing: $350–$700

When choosing a type of egress window, consider how you’d like to open it. For example, double-hung egress windows open from top to bottom and let plenty of fresh air in, whereas sliding windows slide open for easy access.  

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.

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.
