What Every Alabama Homeowners Needs to Know About Window Wells
If your basement windows aren’t protected from debris, rain, snow, and other outside elements, or if your window wells are full of leaves and garbage, it’s important to consider how this could impact your home. Window wells are designed to shield below-grade basement windows from soil pressure and excess moisture, keeping your basement dry and secure.
While traditional steel window wells can rust and deteriorate over time, modern options come in a variety of colors and styles to blend seamlessly with your landscaping or match your home’s exterior. Covers can also be added to keep the area clean and dry, reducing the risk of clogged drains and leaky basement windows.
Maintaining window wells or upgrading to modern styles can significantly improve the look of your home and protect against potential water damage. If you’re considering installing or replacing window wells, we recommend researching your options or consulting with a trusted professional to ensure a durable and effective solution.
