Who Calls Us About Basement Windows and Doors
A new basement window or entrance door is rarely something a homeowner goes shopping for out of the blue. The phone usually rings because somebody else raised it first: a buyer's conditions naming an egress item, a landlord learning that a downstairs room cannot be advertised as a bedroom, a renovation crew whose framing has reached a concrete wall, or a home inspector who has put "egress" in writing.
Those four people need different answers from us, which is why each has a page of its own. Pick the one that describes you.
Basement Windows for Calgary Realtors, Listing Agents & Home Stagers
The listing says two-bedroom basement suite. One of those bedrooms has a window no adult could get out through. With luck you find that out at the listing appointment; without it, you read it in a buyer's conditions. This page sets out what can realistically be fixed, what cannot, and what is safe to tell your seller while the answer is being worked out.

Basement Windows and Doors for Calgary Landlords & Property Managers
Whatever the previous tenant slept in, a basement room with no compliant escape window is not a bedroom. You pay for that in two ways: the rent a real bedroom would bring in, and the exposure you hold every night someone sleeps there. This page is about fixing both.

Egress Windows and Basement Doors for Calgary Renovation Contractors
Your crew finishes basements. The studs are up, the plan is approved in your head, and a bedroom still needs an egress window in a concrete wall you do not cut. Hand us that whole piece — the opening, the lintel, the window or door, the engineering and the permit — instead of splitting it across three subtrades and keeping the structural liability on your own books.
