Egress Windows (Legal Basements)
Code-compliant egress openings for legal basement bedrooms and rental suites.
What we do
Turning a basement into a legal bedroom or rental suite in Alberta means a proper egress window — sized for escape and rescue, with a window well and drainage that actually works.
We cut the foundation, frame the opening, set the window and well, and finish it so it passes inspection and keeps water out.
What's included
- Foundation cutting and opening prep
- Code-sized egress windows
- Window wells, ladders, and covers
- Drainage tie-in to keep wells dry
- Interior and exterior finishing
How it works
Size & quote
We confirm code dimensions for the room and scope the cut.
Cut & frame
The foundation is cut and the opening framed for the window.
Set window & well
Window and well go in with proper drainage.
Finish
Inside and outside are finished clean and inspection-ready.
Common questions
Do I need an egress window to legally rent my basement?
In Alberta, a legal basement bedroom generally requires an egress window meeting minimum size and opening rules. We build to those requirements.
Will cutting the foundation cause leaks?
Not when it's done right. We size the well, tie drainage in, and finish the opening so it stays dry.
