Egress Window Company in Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas

Reliable Egress Window Installation in Omaha, Grand Island, Wichita, Sioux City, and More

If your basement windows are old, ugly, and drafty, they probably cost you more money than you think. Poorly built basement windows and window wells will not protect your basement from the elements. Instead, they allow excess moisture, humidity, and cold drafts to enter your basement, along with ants, termites, and other pests.

Upgrading your basic basement window to an egress window will not only protect your home from common basement window problems but completely transform your space. In addition to satisfying new building code requirements for an emergency escape route from your basement, egress windows allow for more natural light and fresh air, making your space feel larger and more comfortable.

While there are many types of egress windows and window wells to choose from, it's crucial to select an option that combines the right balance of durability, safety, and cost. Thrasher Foundation Repair offers reliable, cost-effective egress windows, window wells, and basement waterproofing solutions throughout Nebraska, Western Iowa, and Central and Western Kansas.

Our Approach to Egress Windows

Old, damaged, or low-quality basement windows and window wells leave your home vulnerable to the elements, resulting in water damage, drafts, high utility bills, and more. By replacing your outdated basement windows with new, high-quality egress windows and window wells, you add value, comfort, and energy efficiency to your home. With over 45 years of experience, Thrasher Foundation Repair has the long-lasting, energy-saving solutions you need.

  • Vinyl Basement Windows: Constructed with a durable vinyl frame, our egress windows are cost-effective and double-paned for superior energy efficiency. The code-compliant egress windows not only provide a safe exit during an emergency but improve the aesthetic appeal and comfort of your basement by allowing more natural light and fresh air to enter the space.
  • Window Wells: Our RockWell™ egress window wells are specially designed to offer the appearance of masonry and the durability of heavy-duty composite construction. The innovative one-piece design is large enough to let natural light in and strong enough to withstand extreme temperature changes, hold back the earth, and eliminate potential leaks. It also features a built-in step to provide a safe emergency exit.
  • Window Well Covers: Our durable window well covers add an extra layer of protection against leaves, twigs, and other debris that hinder proper water drainage and lead to egress window leaks. The polycarbonate cover firmly seals the window well off from outside elements while allowing natural light to pass through freely for a brighter, more inviting basement.
