Ensuring Safety and Enhancing Beauty
Egress windows are essential for both safety and functionality, particularly when converting a basement into a bedroom. At Procraft, we offer a comprehensive service for planning and egress window installation, ensuring your home meets code requirements while enhancing its value, light, and style.
When installing an egress window in a basement, it’s crucial to ensure there is adequate space for an adult to escape. Any exterior obstacles must be cleared to maintain a viable exit path. While egress windows add beauty and light, their primary purpose is safety. A poorly installed egress window can jeopardize the well-being of your family during an emergency.
Below is some of our work for Seattle window replacement.
Unlike many contractors who treat egress windows as an afterthought, Procraft understands their critical importance. Our expert Journeyman Carpenters possess decades of experience, allowing us to handle all aspects of the job in-house, except for specialized tasks such as coring and cutting concrete and cinder block, which are performed by trusted subcontractors.
In Seattle, many homes lack properly sized egress windows as mandated by city code, posing serious risks during emergencies. Egress windows must be large enough to allow an adult, and ideally a fully equipped firefighter, to pass through.
Egress windows provide significant benefits, including:
Offering a crucial escape route in emergencies such as fires.
Ensuring your home meets legal requirements, which is essential for both safety and property value.
Properly installed egress windows can increase the value of your home by making additional rooms legally recognized as bedrooms.
Adding an egress window can brighten a room, making it more inviting and functional.
The cost of installing an egress window varies based on several factors, including materials, window type, and location within the home. Additional construction requirements may also affect the price. For a precise estimate tailored to your needs, contact your Procraft representative.
