Egress Windows for Safer, Brighter Homes in Columbus, OH

An egress window is a crucial feature for a safe and inviting basement. It provides an emergency escape route, significantly increasing the safety of any lower-level space.

These windows are required by building codes for finished basements and any below-grade bedrooms in Columbus, Ohio.

Beyond safety, basement egress windows allow in much-needed natural light, transforming dark basements into comfortable, more livable areas. They also boost property value by making basements compliant with Ohio egress window codes, so added rooms can legally be considered bedrooms or living spaces. If you are finishing or updating a basement, installing code-compliant egress windows is a smart investment for your home.

Customer Reviews

At HEGG Windows & Doors, we strive to provide the best customer service in the industry. But don’t just take our word for it, check out some of our amazing customer reviews below.

I'm a big fan of HEGG Windows because of their customer service, attention to detail, and amazing communication. I had got several quotes before deciding on HEGG and what helped with my decision was that they are a local company, sales was not pushy, professional, price was reasonable, and communication/follow-ups were so nice. The installers were great and the quality inspection afterwards was helpful - they already found something to fix (hardware replacement) and are on it! I feel really taken care of. Thank you HEGG! Will definitely look for you for more windows in the future.

Probably the best company I’ve ever dealt with for home improvement. We just had a small, one door project and I felt like they treated us like we had a huge whole house window install. Communication was excellent from the company at every step. Final product was high quality, and they even did a follow up inspection to make sure we were satisfied. I will definitely use this company again when the need arises.

David L.

Highly recommend Hegg Windows and Doors! Knowledgeable, professional, communicative, great selection, and low pressure sales approach! Recently had sliding doors, 3 season room windows, entry doors replaced. Very happy with end result. The walk-through after installation addressed any questions or adjustments needed. They even caulked and touched up paint inside and out! A rare company built on customer satisfaction.

Laurie D.

The whole team was great to work with. They are skilled in what they do and very professional. We had a small job of replacing just two windows and they did an excellent job. We appreciated the follow up inspection and lessons on how to care for our new windows. Kudos to Josh, Virginia, and the whole team.

Anne B.

Excellent communication from the beginning of the process to the final QA walkthrough after the installation. This is the type of company you WANT to do business with rather than a company you have to work with. Excellent organization!
