Egress windows.
Done in a day.
One specialty. 600+ installs. Code compliant. Flat pricing. We pull the permit, cut the foundation, install the window, set the well, and clean up before we leave.
Light. Code. Resale.
An egress window is a basement window sized to let a person climb out in an emergency and let a firefighter in full gear climb in. Code requires a minimum opening size, a maximum sill height, and a properly sized window well below grade.
Two reasons it matters. First: code. Any basement bedroom needs one. Most modern code requires one in any finished basement. Second: value. The window is what makes a basement bedroom legally count. For an investor, it's the single highest-ROI improvement we know of.

Asked & answered.
What is an egress window?
An egress window is a basement window large enough for a person to climb out of in an emergency, and for a firefighter in full gear to climb in. Code requires a minimum opening size, sill height, and a properly sized window well if it sits below ground.
Why does my basement need one?
Code requires an egress window in any basement bedroom. It's also what makes a basement bedroom legally count when you sell or rent the home, which is the single best ROI remodel a real estate investor can do.
Can I add a basement bedroom without an egress window?
Not legally. An inspector won't approve it and a buyer's agent won't let it count toward the bedroom count on a listing. Adding the window is what unlocks the value.
