What the basic package includes

Some quotes only cover the window. Ours covers the whole job, so the price you approve is the price of a finished, inspected egress window.

  • Engineering detail, approval letter and permit
  • Excavation and dirt haul-off
  • Concrete saw cut, framing and approved header
  • Window and window well
  • Flashing, waterproofing and trim inside and out
  • Debris removal and cleanup

What changes the price

What moves your number

Every home is different. These are the factors your estimator looks at.

1

Your foundation

Poured concrete, block, brick or stone, and how thick and deep the wall is, all affect the cut and the header.

2

Window size & style

Bigger openings take more cutting and a larger header. Tilt & Turn, slider and casement cost the same.

3

The window well

Steel wells are the most economical. Stone-look and timber terrace wells cost more but blend into landscaping.

4

Access & obstacles

Decks, patios, AC units, gas meters or tight side yards near the opening can add work.

5

Add-ons

Window well sump pumps, custom grates and covers, and well locks are optional upgrades.

+

Your jurisdiction

Permit fees and requirements vary from city to city across the metro.

Reviews

Customers on price and value

“I recently hired Denver Egress to install an egress window in my basement and they did a great job! The new window looks great they are reasonably priced compared to other quotes I received and they finished quickly! I felt like I got a great value for the price and quality of work, I would hire them again.”

“I would recommend Denver Egress to install basement windows they were very quick in responding to our request for quote. Sharine was very pleasant to work with and impressed me with her honest and up-front quote of price and timeline. Ray and his crew did an excellent job of installing the two windows. I would not hesitate to have additional windows installed by Denver Egress.”

Michael Small

“This is the second time we've used Sennett Windows. We buy houses that need a lot of fix-up before we can rent them out. We called Sennett Windows and Steve came out, explained the different options to us and helped us choose the best windows for our properties. He has provided good service and reasonable prices both times. The windows are good quality and are installed by his own team. The next time we need windows, we will definitely give him a call!If you're looking for quality windows, installed professionally and for a good price, give Sennett Windows a call and check them out.”
