In Chicago, a homeowner wanted to make their basement safer and more functional by adding proper emergency exits and additional natural light. The project required creating two brand-new egress window openings, transforming the basement into a space that met modern building code requirements while improving its overall usability.
Our team completed the installation from start to finish, beginning with careful excavation outside the home before cutting two new openings through the foundation wall. We installed high-quality egress windows, durable window wells, and proper drainage systems to help prevent future water intrusion. Every aspect of the installation was completed in accordance with local building codes, ensuring safety and long-term performance.
The result is a brighter, safer basement with two fully code-compliant egress windows. The homeowner now has increased natural light, improved ventilation, and reliable emergency exits, adding both functionality and value to the home while providing lasting peace of mind.
