Windows Photo Album: Larchmont, NY Egress Window Install | Basement Code Compliance Contractor

Egress window installations require more than cutting an opening in a foundation wall; they demand precise planning around structural integrity, local building codes, and waterproofing to protect the home long-term. Double R A Construction Corp completed exactly this type of project at a Larchmont, NY residence, bringing the basement up to code with a properly sized and installed egress window that meets International Residential Code (IRC) requirements for minimum opening width, height, and well dimensions. The work involved careful excavation around the foundation, installation of the window unit with proper framing and flashing, and a drainage-ready window well designed to handle the kind of sustained rainfall the Westchester shoreline communities see regularly. Energy-efficient glazing ensures the new opening doesn't become a weak point in the home's thermal envelope, a key consideration for any below-grade installation in a New York climate zone. Double R A's window installations are backed by a minimum five-year workmanship warranty and the company's longstanding membership in the National Roofing Contractors Association, reflecting a broader commitment to trade standards across every service they offer. For homeowners in Larchmont, Mamaroneck, New Rochelle, and surrounding communities looking to finish a basement or bring an existing space up to habitable standards, an egress window is the critical first step, and proper installation makes all the difference.
