I started Scaldino Basement Solutions in 2010 to provide homeowners in Morris Plains, NJ with basement improvements that meet code and hold up over time. Egress window installation is part of that work. We handle the full scope at every property: foundation cut, framing, waterproofing, window well with correct clearance, cover, drain, and inspection. The goal is a legal, safe egress opening built to last in Morris Plains, NJ.
Basement bedrooms in Morris Plains, NJ that lack an egress window cannot legally be classified as habitable bedrooms. This affects home value, insurance coverage, and certificate of occupancy status. The IRC R310 standard requires a minimum net clear opening area, minimum opening dimensions, and a maximum sill height of 44 inches from the floor. Scaldino Basement Solutions assesses the foundation wall and drainage conditions at every Morris Plains, NJ property to determine the correct approach for a compliant egress window installation that will pass local inspection.

Cutting an egress window opening in a Morris Plains, NJ foundation wall requires the correct tools, correct opening dimensions, and correct framing to support the structure above. Scaldino Basement Solutions performs this work correctly on every project: the opening is cut to code dimensions, the rough opening is framed in the masonry, and the window unit is installed with perimeter waterproofing to prevent water intrusion at the opening.
An egress window opening that is not properly waterproofed at the perimeter will allow water to enter the basement through the foundation wall. Scaldino Basement Solutions waterproofs every egress window installation in Morris Plains, NJ at the opening perimeter, and the window well drain prevents water from accumulating outside the opening. These measures ensure the installation performs correctly through all seasons in Morris Plains, NJ.
