Egress Window Installation in Hebron, New Hampshire | Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems
Challenge
A homeowner in Hebron, New Hampshire, wanted to improve basement safety and prepare the lower level for occasional guest use. The existing basement window was too small and did not provide an adequate emergency exit. During the inspection, the team identified that the basement would benefit greatly from a properly sized egress window system. The homeowner also wanted the basement to feel less confined and receive additional natural light.
Solution
To address the homeowner’s goals, Matt Clark’s Northern Basement Systems completed a full egress window installation, including:
- Exterior excavation at the foundation wall
- Enlargement of the basement window opening
- Installation of a large egress window
- Installation of a heavy-duty window well
- Drainage stone placement to help manage water around the system
- Exterior restoration and final grading
The completed egress window installation improved both safety and appearance in the basement. The space now has a reliable emergency exit, improved airflow, and significantly more natural light. The homeowner now has greater flexibility for future basement finishing plans. This egress window installation provided the homeowner with a safer and more usable basement space while helping prepare the lower level for future living or guest accommodations. The project added both function and long-term value to the home.
