Ensured Safety With Egress Window Installation

Egress windows are windows large enough to enter or exit from. The state of Maryland and local building codes require certain rooms in your home (bedrooms, home offices, or finished basements) to have an egress window.


While specific requirements vary by location, an egress window must be large enough for an adult to climb out or for emergency personnel to climb in. Regulations also dictate how close the window sill must be to the floor so children can climb out safely. These rules are to protect you and your family from fires or other disasters in your home.

I had an egress window/well installed by Always Waterproofing & Concrete Service with a lifetime warranty two years ago. In recent months, I noticed ground in the well had standing water below the drain. I called AW and described the problem. Paul came out the next day and explained that it was due to ground settlement over the years. He proceeded to pack the ground with many buckets of gravel. I recommend this company for they do stand behind their work.
