New basement vynil windows

Untold Truths no one
talks about basement windows

We have replaced hundreds if not thousands of basement vinyl windows and after thousands of dollars of trial and error discovered that Old, cracked, or poorly sealed basement windows are the #1 culprit for cold drafts, rising heating bills, and costly water leaks during heavy rain and snowmelt.

Common Basement Window Issues We Solve:

Leaking & Seepage: Water pooling around the frame during heavy Calgary downpours or spring snowmelt, threatening your foundation.
Drafts & Energy Loss: Single-pane or warped frames leaking heat right out of your home, driving up your utility bills.
Cracked or Broken Glass: Accidental breaks, storm damage, or shattered glass leaving your home exposed and insecure.
Rotting Wooden Frames: Moisture trapped against foundation concrete causing wood rot, mold, and structural weakness.

Or sometimes even complete destruction of drywall, sheathing, window and frame because of constant leaking.

Our Solution:

Airtight Retrofits & Full Frame Replacements: Custom-measured installations designed to fit your exact foundation opening with zero air gaps.
Advanced Glazing Technology: Low-E coatings and argon gas fills engineered to withstand extreme temperature swings from -40°C winters to warm summers. This is exactly the kind of technology and fittings you need for calgary's weather conditions.

Can basement windows be replaced in the middle of winter in Calgary?

Yes! While winter installations require specialized techniques to minimize heat loss, our team swaps windows one at a time using quick-seal methods so your home never stays exposed to the cold.

Do I need a permit for a basement window replacement in Calgary?

Standard retrofits that keep the exact same window size generally do not require a city permit. However, if you are cutting concrete to enlarge an opening for an egress window, a building permit is required. We handle or guide you through the entire permitting process.

What is an egress window and why do I need one?

An egress window is a legally required emergency exit window for basement bedrooms. It must meet specific minimum size and clearance dimensions to allow an adult or emergency responder to pass through easily.

How long does a typical basement window installation take?

Most standard basement window replacements take between 1 to 3 hours per window, depending on whether it's a simple retrofit or requires concrete cutting.
