Egress window installation cost is one of the most common questions we get at KC Pier. Our egress window projects typically cost between $5,000 and $7,000, depending on the options you choose.
That price includes a complete, high-quality package installed by our own crew from start to finish. How much digging is needed and which package options you pick both affect the final number. This guide covers what’s included and how to get an exact quote.
Why KC Pier Handles Every Step In-House
We’re one of the few foundation companies that install egress windows, and we may be the only one that cuts the foundation wall with our own team.
Our Own Crew Cuts the Wall
We don’t rely on third parties or wait on their schedules. Our crew are professionals, and as a company we install about one egress window every week.
For our team, this is routine work. You can trust that every step is done by people who know the process well.
How In-House Work Keeps Costs Down
Because we do everything ourselves, we control our own costs. That makes our installations more cost-effective for homeowners.
Key Takeaway: When one company handles the dig, the cut, and the install, you avoid delays from waiting on outside contractors.
What’s Included in Egress Window Installation Cost
Here’s what that $5,000 to $7,000 range covers. We call it our basic package, and every part of it uses high-quality materials.
We handle the full process, including the dig, the wall exposure, the cut, the installation, and all the finishing work. Once the job is done, there’s nothing left for you to do.
The Four-Part Egress Window Package
Every standard installation includes:
- The ladder
- The window well
- The window itself
- The cover
Built-In Water Management
Each package also includes water management at the bottom of the window well. If the cover comes off or water gets into the well, that water is directed away from your home.
Depending on your property, the system either drains water away from the house or ties into the existing foundation footing drain system.
Key Takeaway: Every KC Pier installation includes drainage at the bottom of the window well, so water is managed even if the cover comes off.

What Affects the Price of an Egress Window?
You may have heard of egress window installations costing $9,000 to $10,000. Our typical range is $5,000 to $7,000, and a few factors determine where your project lands within it.
Egress Window Installation Costs: Half Dig vs Full Dig
The amount of digging affects pricing. If your foundation wall is already half exposed, a half dig can cost less than a full dig.
Beyond digging, the options you choose for your package can also move the price up or down.
Placement and Site Conditions
Not every spot on a wall is a good fit. Sometimes we need to shift the window slightly, and we’ll do our best to place it where you want it.
Key Takeaway: A site visit confirms your window can go where you want it and lets us price your dig depth and options accurately.
