Egress window installation work generally involves excavating and enlarging an existing basement window opening to meet safety and building code requirements, installing a properly sized and rated window that provides an emergency escape route, and ensuring the surrounding structure is reinforced to support the new opening. The process may include excavation outside the foundation wall, cutting and removing sections of the foundation or wall, installing window wells, and finishing interior and exterior surfaces to ensure proper drainage and aesthetic appeal. When evaluating requests for egress window installation, important details include the size and location of the existing window, the type of foundation, local building code requirements, accessibility for excavation and installation, and the structural integrity of the surrounding area to support modifications.
