Egress Windows Before & After Photos

Before
The homeowner in Colby, WI planned to convert their lower level into a finished bedroom but the existing basement window was undersized and did not meet the emergency‐exit requirements. During the inspection, the Sure-Dry Sales – System Design Specialist confirmed that the opening fell well short of the mandated clear‐opening area and that the surrounding window well lacked proper drainage and code-compliant dimensions.

After
Sure-Dry’s certified technicians excavated the exterior area, formed a new areaway window well with integrated drainage, and installed a correctly sized egress window unit meeting Wisconsin basement window code. The installation provided both a safe emergency exit and increased natural light, enabling the homeowner to finish the basement confidently.
The homeowner now enjoys a fully compliant basement bedroom and peace of mind knowing the space meets emergency-egress standards.

Before
In Marshfield, WI, the homeowners wanted to make their basement a safe and usable living area, but the existing windows were too small to serve as an emergency exit. The foundation wall was solid poured concrete, and the yard grading near the install area made excavation and drainage control a key concern. During the inspection, Sure-Dry’s System Design Specialist confirmed that a properly installed egress window would bring the space up to code while also improving light, ventilation, and overall comfort.

After
Sure-Dry’s installation crew excavated the area outside the foundation, taking care to protect surrounding soil and landscaping. A precise wall cut was made to fit a new insulated egress window, followed by installation of a reinforced window well with integrated drainage connected to the home’s waterproofing system. Once sealed, backfilled, and graded, the new window provided a compliant emergency exit, enhanced natural lighting, and lasting protection against moisture.
The homeowners were pleased with the clean finish and peace of mind knowing their basement now met safety and building code standards.

Before:
A homeowner in Stevens Point, WI, wanted to transform their basement into a livable space but was limited by small, noncompliant windows that didn’t meet egress safety standards. The lack of proper light and ventilation made the basement feel dark and closed-in, and there was no accessible emergency exit. The homeowner sought a reliable solution that would enhance safety while making the space brighter and more functional.

After:
Sure-Dry’s crew installed a new egress window system, complete with a sturdy window well, clear cover, and proper drainage to prevent water buildup. The larger window not only met local safety codes for emergency egress but also dramatically increased natural light and airflow in the basement. The project was completed efficiently, with attention to proper sealing and finish detail to ensure long-term durability and performance.

The homeowner was delighted with the added light, comfort, and safety — turning their basement into a bright, welcoming extension of their home.
