Our egress window installation Services in Falcon Heights, MN

Every egress window installation in Falcon Heights, MN starts with the same question: what does your basement need to meet code? Here is the work we do:

• Basement egress window installation. We cut the opening, set the window, install the well, and grade for drainage. This is the core job for anyone adding a basement bedroom or finishing a basement.
• Basement window replacement. If your existing basement window is failing, undersized, or letting in water, we replace it with one that meets code.
• Egress window well installation. A proper window well keeps soil back, lets light in, and gives you a safe exit path. We install wells sized to the bedroom egress requirement.
• Galvanized egress window wells. Galvanized steel wells hold up against Minnesota freeze-thaw cycles and shifting soil.
• Glass block window installation. For basement windows that do not need to serve as an exit, glass block windows add security and light without a full egress opening.
• Small basement window installation. Not every opening needs a full egress window. We install small basement windows where code allows.

Not sure which of these your project needs? Our guide to what an egress window is and why homes need one to meet code is a good starting point.

Why Falcon Heights, MN Homeowners Choose Us

The typical Falcon Heights home was built around 1960, per U.S. Census Bureau ACS estimates.
