Egress Windows Before & After Photos

Before
In Sturgeon Bay, WI, the homeowner wanted to make their basement safer and more functional but faced a challenge with small, outdated windows that did not meet current egress code. The foundation walls were poured concrete, and the planned installation area was located on a sloped section of the yard where drainage and soil stability required careful management. During inspection, Sure-Dry’s System Design Specialist determined that an egress window installation would not only bring the basement into code compliance but also improve lighting, ventilation, and usability of the lower level.

After
Sure-Dry’s certified crew excavated the area along the foundation, stabilizing the slope to prevent soil movement during the dig. A clean, code-sized opening was cut into the concrete wall, and an energy-efficient egress window was installed with a reinforced, corrosion-resistant window well featuring a built-in ladder and integrated drain line. The system was sealed and tied into the existing waterproofing to ensure moisture protection, then backfilled and graded for a clean finish.
The homeowner gained a bright, safe, and fully code-compliant basement space that’s now ready for finishing.

Before:
A homeowner in Sister Bay, WI, wanted to install an egress window to bring more light and ventilation into their basement while meeting safety code requirements for a future living area. The existing basement windows were small and outdated, allowing little natural light and providing no safe emergency exit. The homeowner wanted a clean, code-compliant installation that would enhance both safety and comfort without risking water intrusion.

After:
Sure-Dry’s team carefully excavated the area outside the home and installed a complete egress window system, featuring a large, code-approved window, a durable well, and a clear cover to protect against debris and moisture. Drainage stone was placed at the base of the well to ensure proper water management and long-term durability. The new window provided ample daylight, improved ventilation, and met all egress safety standards.

The homeowner was impressed by how bright and open the basement felt after the installation and was confident knowing their home now features a safe, functional, and beautiful egress solution.
