"Ray was extremely easy to work with. It seriously felt like I was asking a family friend to help me out, especially since I had ZERO experience with installing egress windows. He came out/gave us an estimate within days, scheduled us super quickly during a time that was ideal for us, and the work was completely done within 5 days (for two egress windows requiring a LOT of digging/concrete sawing) and the end result was perfect. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone."
"We were in the investigative stage of the process. They insisted they come out and traveled at least an hour in a snow storm. The sales process and installation was great. However, the sales person put some pressure on by putting a expiring deal on the table "as soon as he walks out the door". We didn't feel comfortable with proceeding but we couldn't afford to say no either- it was literally a gamble. So we ended up doing it. I never got any other quotes so I'm not sure how affordable it was, but we're satisfied."

New window installation costs range from $300 to $1,500 per window, depending on size, material, and energy efficiency features.
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.
An egress window is similar to a regular window. However, this type of window opens fully to allow people to escape the home or rescue personnel to enter the home if an emergency occurs. Egress windows are required in all finished basements before they can be considered a living space.
A good U-factor for windows is 0.30 or lower, but they can range from 0.20 to 1.20. A general rule of thumb when it comes to the U-factor is that the lower, the better.
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.
