New West CoEgress windows in Northern Colorado
An egress window is what makes a basement bedroom legal and safe. We cut the foundation, set the window, dig and install the well, and add a ladder when the well is deep. Most run $5,450 to $6,350 each.
Typical totals
- One egress window with well and ladder: $5,450 to $6,350
- Two egress windows for two basement bedrooms: $10,900 to $12,700

Questions
What size does an egress window need to be?
Code calls for at least 5.7 square feet of opening, at least 24 inches tall and 20 inches wide, with the sill no more than 44 inches off the floor. The well needs at least 9 square feet of floor area.
Do I need one for a basement bedroom?
Yes. Every sleeping room needs an emergency way out, and an inspector will not pass the bedroom without it.
Will it leak?
Not when it is flashed, the well has a drain and gravel, and the ground slopes away. We do all three.
