It can be easy to forget about your basement when you aren't down there all the time, but that doesn’t make it any less important. Old windows can allow not only the outside air to get in, but also water seepage. You are also more susceptible to breakage which can cause big problems especially if it isn't caught right away.
When replacing your basement windows, it is also very important to make sure that the window wells are in good condition. If they are not, there is no better time to replace them then with the window.
You may not see why replacing those old, rusted window wells is important so here are a few reason why you should.
1. The SunHouse is designed to keep weeds from growing in the well
2. The color and shape of the SunHouse were designed specifically to allow more natural light into your basement
3. The SunHouse along with a cover, keep wind from blowing against the window which can cause drafts in the basement.
What are you waiting for?
What a difference the egress window will make in your home even with the basement wall not finished!
We were called to this home in Sparta WI when they wanted to change their average sized window and well to an egress window. They decided that we had just what they were looking for. Once the landscaping is back in place, it will be better than ever!
This home was built into a hill, so when water started coming into the living room and creating mold it was even more scary as this was an area where the family was majority of the time. We helped get out the moldy drywall and installed our watercontrol system to keep water to flow out and not just sit in the living room.
