Egress window installation typically involves excavating around the foundation to create space for the new window opening, installing a properly framed and reinforced window that meets safety and building code requirements, and ensuring proper sealing and drainage to prevent water intrusion. The work may also include cutting through foundation walls, installing window wells, and finishing interior and exterior surfaces to ensure a safe and functional exit point from basements or lower levels. When evaluating requests, important details include the size and type of window, compliance with local building codes, the condition of existing foundation walls, accessibility for excavation, and the scope of interior and exterior finishing work needed.
