Egress window installation in Baltimore
An egress window gives your basement a second way out and turns a dark room into one with daylight. Every basement bedroom in Baltimore needs one: at least 5.7 sq ft of net clear opening, a sill no more than 44 in above the floor, and a well big enough to climb out of.
Walkout basements in Baltimore
A walkout gives your lower level its own door, with a concrete stairwell, a drain and a patio or sliding door. It's the most complete way out of a basement. See how we build walkouts.
Window well replacement in Baltimore
Rusted, cracked or undersized wells are replaced with egress-size wells, ladders, clear covers and proper drainage. See window well options.
