Vinyl Windows Replacement
The windows we install are vinyl windows, so you may be asking yourself “why vinyl”? Throughout our years in the industry we have used many different manufacturers from all over the US; the variables ranged from the material they were made out of to the design of the window. The vinyl mterial will never rust or corrode and it’s extremely weather tolerant, something very important in Colorado climate. The fluctuation between heat, humidity, dry and freezing temperatures can wreak havoc on wood or aluminum windows, but our vinyl windows withstand the test of time and extreme weather.
In addition, vinyl has the natural ability to expand and shrink when necessary, all while maintaining a superb seal! You can’t say that about wood or aluminum!
Buy Local from a Colorado Manufacturer
Best of all, our windows are made and sold right here in Colorado! Buying local Colorado products is not only good for our state’s economy, but good for you too! These locally made windows are a vital part in delivering quality service and craftsmanship. When windows are shipped from different states, the drastic elevation changes can compromise the integrity of the window, which leaves the window vulnerable to future damage and/ or leaks.
When looking to replace your windows, you can rest assured you have a credible, competent company installing only the best windows to keep your home safe from the elements.
Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Basement Window Replacement
Can small basement windows be replaced without installing an egress window?
Small basement windows can often be replaced without installing a full egress window as long as the window is not being used for a basement bedroom or living space that requires an emergency escape window. Many older homes still have small basement windows that can be upgraded with modern, energy-efficient replacements while maintaining the original opening size.
How much does it t to replace a small basement window?
The cost to replace a small basement window is $800-$900 per window for a typical small window with no obstructions or complications. Price can vary due to the size of the opening, the type of window being removed and how it was installed/attached. Replacing an existing basement window without enlarging the opening is generally less expensive than installing a full egress window because it does not require excavation or cutting the foundation.
Do small basement windows require permits?
No. In most cases, replacing an existing basement window with a similar-sized window does not require a building permit. However, permits are required if the opening is being enlarged or if the window is being converted into an egress window to meet building code requirements.
Will replacing a small basement window help prevent water problems?
Replacing an older basement window can help improve the seal between the window and the foundation, reducing the chance of water intrusion around the frame. That said, if the well fills up with water, windows are not designed to hold water like a fish-tank so water will leak through, specifically through the weepholes. The most important key to preventing water issues is to inspect and correct the surrounding grading and drainage conditions. We would also highly recommend replacing the small wells at the same time you replace the small windows.
What is the difference between a basement window and an egress window?
The main difference between a basement window and an egress window is that an egress window is designed to meet building code requirements for emergency escape and rescue, while many standard basement windows are smaller and intended only for light and ventilation.
An egress window must meet specific size and accessibility requirements so it can be used as an emergency exit from a basement bedroom or living space. In most cases this means the window opening must be large enough for a person to safely exit the home, and the window well outside must provide adequate clearance.
Older homes often have small basement windows that do not meet these modern egress requirements. When homeowners finish basements or add bedrooms, installing a code-compliant egress window is typically required to meet building code standards.
