Basement Finishing & Egress Window Well Installation

Finished basements can be a great addition to your home.  But, problems there can significantly decrease the value of your home, while cost-effective finishing work can add livable square footage, vastly increasing its value.  The  costs of this major improvement to your home can be substantial.  The national average is 2,436 – $3,646 just on flooring!

Egress windows greatly increase the available light in what often is the darkest area of your home, and makes that room of your basement legal as a bedroom.  Care must be used when choosing materials.  A sturdy one piece window well in either galvanized steel or composite has no seams to come apart over time and leak.

The first thing to sustain damage in a flooded basement is that expensive flooring.  Ask your contractor about the installation techniques of your egress well, the window, and what cover will be provided.
