Egress Window Installation — Our Specialty
An egress window is a large, code-compliant basement window designed to provide a safe emergency exit in case of fire or other emergencies. In Ohio, building code requires egress windows in any basement room used as a bedroom or habitable living space.
Ohio homeowners need egress windows for more than just code. These windows transform dark, closed-off basements into bright, livable spaces filled with natural light and fresh air. They're one of the highest-ROI home improvements you can make.
Our installation process is thorough and efficient. We cut the foundation opening with precision equipment, install the window and well system, waterproof and seal everything, backfill and grade the exterior, and clean up completely — usually in a single day.

FAQ
Egress Window Questions — Answered by Ohio's Specialists
Quick answers to the most common questions Ohio homeowners ask about basement windows.
QDo I need an egress window in my basement?
If you have or plan to add a basement bedroom in Ohio, yes. Building code requires a properly sized emergency escape window. If there is no bedroom, egress is usually not required, but many homeowners install one for safety, light, and resale value.
QHow much does an egress window cost in Ohio?
Most full egress installations range between $4,500 and $8,500. Price depends on dig depth, soil conditions, drainage requirements, window size, and structural reinforcement. We provide free estimates with clear pricing.
QHow long does installation take?
Most egress projects take one to two days. Glass block replacements are often completed in one day.
QWill my egress window leak?
Not when installed properly. We build drainage into the system to prevent standing water and protect your foundation.
QDo I need a permit for an egress window?
Most cities require permits for egress installations because they involve excavation and structural cutting. Glass block replacement usually does not require excavation permits, but it depends on your location.
