Window wells are a huge trouble area for any home with basement windows that are below the ground. They are one of the primary causes of catastrophic basement flooding in the Chicago area and to neglect them puts your home at risk. Water spilling over a gutter, coming out a downspout or overflowing from the yard are only some of the ways window wells get filled with water and then cause basement flooding. Our custom window well covers fit any window well and their installation includes a thorough cleaning, installation of drain guards, if needed, and a custom-built window well cover. Our UV-stable covers allow 98% of the natural light to enter and can withstand 850 lbs of weight thus providing your window well and home the extra security it needs.
We are available for free advice on any project and while the majority of proposals we give are also free, your particular project may require us to charge an initial estimating fee, which would then be deducted from the project’s cost. Request an estimate to get the process started and we’ll get back to you with the details.
