families, homes, and communities. National Window Safety Week—is a time

At Ayers, we care about the well-being of our communities. We are
committed to educating our customers of the importance of an egress
window and meeting building code standards, especially as we help
homeowners remodel and finish their basements. Egress windows not only
increase the value and beauty of our homes they also serve as vital means
of escape in emergencies, such as fires.
We have helped several homeowners in the last year install an egress window at
their home. One homeowner was looking to move their adult son to the
basement as he transitioned from college to his first full-time job. With the
addition of an egress window, their son made the homeowners basement his
entire living quarters and could enjoy natural light, fresh air, and of course,
have the reassurance he could exit from downstairs in the case something
were to happen.
Our specialists will work with you to determine the proper placement for your
code-compliant egress window(s) for safety and functionality. To increase
your home’s value and start enjoying natural light in your basement, you can
schedule a free estimate with Ayers Basement Systems today. What better
time to start the process than during National Window Safety Week!
