You get a free on-site evaluation and a written, fixed-price quote for your Toronto egress window within 48 hours, and a typical project runs from first phone call to final inspection in 2 to 4 weeks. Here is exactly what that looks like, who does what, and what it costs before you commit to anything.
What Your Free Quote Includes
The free quote is not a ballpark number pulled over the phone. It includes:
- A visit to your home in Toronto or the GTA by a licensed, insured, WSIB-covered installer — not a sales rep.
- Measurements of your window rough opening, floor-to-ceiling height, and well depth.
- An assessment of soil type, grading, weeping tile, and drainage that affects your install.
- A check of the existing window well and cover to see if they can be reused or need replacing.
- An OBC 9.9.10.1 exit requirement review so you know your new egress actually passes inspection.
- A written, itemized quote emailed to you within 24 hours of the visit. Pricing is fixed for 30 days.
There are no travel fees, no quote fees, and no obligation to proceed.
Egress Window Pricing: Typical Ranges
These are the numbers we see across most GTA residential jobs. Final pricing depends on window size, foundation material, well depth, and drainage conditions.
| Service | Typical Range |
|---|---|
| Egress window installation (complete, including well) | $4,500 – $8,000 |
| Window well installation only | $800 – $2,500 |
| Window well covers | $300 – $900 |
| Window well drainage & waterproofing | $500 – $3,000 |
| Basement waterproofing | From $1,200 |
| Window well replacement & repair | $500 – $2,000 |
A complete egress install includes the window, steel lintel, well, drainage base, sealing, backfill, and cleanup. You get the full number in writing before work starts — no change orders unless you approve them first.
The Process: Step by Step
Step 1: Call or submit the form (You). Tell us your address, window location, and whether you already have a well. If you have photos, send them — they help us confirm whether a visit will be enough. We respond within one business day.
Step 2: Site visit (Us + You). We arrive within 48 hours of your call. You show us the window and tell us if you've had water issues. We take measurements and check drainage conditions. This takes 30 to 45 minutes.
Step 3: Written quote (Us). Within 24 hours, you get a fixed-price quote with a line-by-line breakdown. You're not paying for the visit, and the quote doesn't obligate you.
Step 4: Permits and scheduling (Us, with your sign-off). New egress windows in Toronto require a building permit. We prepare the drawings and submit the application. Once approved, we schedule the install — typically 2 to 4 weeks from your go-ahead. You just sign the forms.
Step 5: Installation (Us). A complete egress install takes one to two days. We cut concrete, set the steel lintel, install the window, build the well, lay drainage, backfill, and seal. For a well cover or drainage fix, expect half a day. You just clear a path to the window and keep pets and kids away from the work area.
Step 6: Inspection and warranty (Us). We book the final inspection, confirm the install meets OBC requirements, haul away debris, and hand over your 10-year workmanship warranty.
Why Choose Egress Window Pros Toronto
We are a family-run basement contractor with 12 years of below-grade work and more than 400 egress windows and window wells installed across the GTA. Every unit we install is engineered for Toronto's freeze-thaw cycle, with proper drainage designed into the well so water moves away from your foundation instead of pooling against the window. We are licensed, insured, and WSIB covered, and every install comes with a 10-year workmanship warranty. That means the quote you get is the price you pay, and the job is done to code the first time.
