Looking for egress window installation near me? Riverfront Contractors is your go-to egress window installer in Kansas City. Call today for a free estimate! Egress windows make basement bedrooms legal, safe, and brighter — giving your family a way out and bringing in natural light.
We serve Kansas City first, then Lenexa, Overland Park, Leawood, and Prairie Village. We handle the excavation, foundation cutting, window installation, and waterproofing so your egress window meets code and lasts.
Why Basement Bedrooms Need Egress Windows
Building code requires that any basement room used as a sleeping room has an egress window — a window large enough for a person to escape and for a firefighter to enter. Without one, a basement bedroom isn't code-compliant. We install egress windows and window wells that meet code and keep your family safe.
Egress windows also bring natural light and ventilation into a basement, making it feel less like a basement and more like a real room. See our basement remodeling in Kansas City page for the full basement process, or our basement finishing page for the broader build-out.
What Egress Window Installation Involves
Egress window installation involves cutting an opening in the foundation wall, installing a window well, the window itself, and a drain to keep water out. It requires permits and inspection through your city's building department. We handle the excavation, foundation work, window installation, and waterproofing.
Every eress window we install is backed by our 1-year workmanship guarantee.
