Egress Window Well Replaced in Eau Claire, MN

A property from Eau Claire, MN, had a rental property she needed an upgrade on. One of the lower-level rooms was to be used as a bedroom, but it was not up to code. Wanting to upgrade, the property owner began to search for how to replace basement egress wells online. When she found our website, she signed up for a FREE estimate, and several weeks later, Chuck H, one of our Design Specialists headed out to the home. 

Chuck got right to work surveying the home and old window well. When he finished, he was ready to deliver his recommendations. Chuck recommended the installation of our RockWell window well. RockWell offers an attractive alternative to ugly window wells, while providing a safe, code-compliant basement egress. Click the arrows below to learn more about the features and benefits of our egress window wells. RockWell window wells are a one-piece, rigid construction that will not collapse from backfill or allow water to leak through the well walls. They’re UV stable, rust and rot proof, and stand up to extreme temperatures. Our egress window wells meet the IRC Egress Code Requirements, providing you and your family with a direct escape from any of the inhabited rooms in your basement. RockWell’s egress window wells feature durable, built-in steps that make it easy for your family to escape from your basement in the event of an emergency. We also offer safety ladders for our Premier series window wells. A polycarbonate safety cover keeps leaves and debris out while allowing natural sunlight and fresh outside air to enter your basement. While they are not intended for continual foot traffic, the 10mm fluted polycarbonate cover will hold up to 500 lbs. of weight and prevent family members from accidentally falling into the window well. The homeowner liked the look and safety of our window well, and schedule the installation for several weeks later. 

On the day of the project, our Foreman, Gabriel, and his team were able to install the window well in no time. Now, our customer can rent out her property with confidence that the home is up to code!
