Benefits of Enlarging Windows & Doors

Expanding the variety and quantity of openings in your home is primarily constrained by your imagination. Here are some reasons you might consider enlarging a window:

  1. Capture western sunlight to enhance natural light indoors.
  2. Create a view of a specific section of your garden.
  3. Enlarge basement windows to comply with fire regulations for converting it into a habitable space.
  4. Increase natural light and ventilation by enlarging existing windows.

Window Enlargement Cost

Every project is unique, and we’re always ready to provide a complimentary consultation for your window enlargement needs. Costs for window enlargements can vary based on factors like the window size, material (brick or siding), and the necessary structural modifications to ensure safety. Here are some examples to give you an estimate:

  1. Enlargement in a Concrete Wall without Excavation: If you have a small above-grade window and adequate space to adjust it without excavation, the cost ranges approximately from $1400 to $2400, including the window.
  2. Enlargement Requiring Excavation: For a small above-grade window that needs to be lowered to meet regulations, excavation and installation of a window well with drainage are necessary. This type of job typically costs between $2000 and $3000, including the window.

Excavation Costs

Heading: Understanding Excavation Costs in Enlargement Projects
For projects requiring excavation, such as when enlarging a window into a legal egress window, costs can range from $2,000 to $4,000. This process involves digging out the surrounding area, which is essential for proper installation and compliance with safety regulations.

Cut Out vs Cut Down Enlargement
