A 1992 home needed an update for its egress window. The original egress was dated, drafty, retained water close to the home, and lacked a proper exterior covering. Our foreman swiftly went to work and installed a replacement window, a galvanized steel well, and an exterior window cover. The customers were relieved knowing they wouldn't have to worry about water seeping in through the window anymore.

A new homeowner in East Lansing, MI, wanted to enhance their recently purchased property by installing an egress window. Before the installation, the basement felt cramped and lacked natural light, making it less inviting. More importantly, the absence of an egress window posed safety concerns in the event of a fire, limiting escape routes.
We installed an egress window to address these issues, transforming the basement into a more functional and brighter space. This upgrade provides an emergency escape plan and adds valuable living space to the home. The homeowners can now enjoy a safer, more welcoming basement that enhances their new property's overall value and comfort.
Greg has a secondary cabin in Paradise, MI that was built 25 years ago. He uses the cabin for fishing and enjoying nature. Unfortunately, he couldn't use the kitchen due to sloping floors and was concerned about moisture in the crawl space causing the problem. Our team installed Smart Jacks and a supplemental beam under the kitchen area to safely address the issues in the short crawl space. Additionally, we encapsulated the crawl space and kept the smart jacks and supplemental beams in place to stabilize the floor.
