The part most people skip

A well is only as good as its drainage

A window well that just holds a puddle against your foundation is worse than no well at all. The stone bed and tie-in to your weeping tile matter as much as the well itself.

We excavate, set a precast or poured well tight to the wall, backfill with clean drainage stone, and tie it into your weeping tile or a dedicated drain so it clears instead of collecting.

Your options

Window well types & what's included

Which well makes sense depends on the window size, the wall, and whether it needs to serve as egress.

Precast Wells

Corrugated precast units set and backfilled — the standard, economical option.

Poured Concrete Wells

Formed and poured where the size, shape or a masonry finish calls for it.

Drainage Tie-in

Stone bed connected into your weeping tile or a dedicated drain line.

Egress Window Wells

Sized and stepped to code where the window doubles as a bedroom's second exit.

Covers & Safety Grates

Clear covers or grates to keep debris and animals out and add a safety margin.

Patio & Hardscape Integration

Finished with a block or paver surround that matches an adjacent patio or walkway.

Free estimates. Fixed prices.

We check the window, the grade and your drainage, then give you one written number.

Window well built into a paver patio, finished flush with the surrounding hardscape

Built into the patio layout rather than treated as an afterthought.

Fitting the well to the yard

Planned with the hardscape, not around it

When a well lands next to a new patio or walkway, we set it as part of that layout — matching the cap, keeping edges square, and making sure the drainage still has somewhere to go once the hardscape is in.

Replacing an old, rusted-out metal well is one of the most common calls we get — usually a sign the drainage underneath needs attention too, not just the well itself.

Clean, free-draining stone — the part that actually keeps the well dry.

What's under the stone

The stone bed does the real work

Underneath the visible stone is a drainage path down to your weeping tile or a dedicated drain, so water that lands in the well has somewhere to go instead of sitting against the glass and the wall.

Get that part right and the well itself — precast or poured — just needs to hold its shape and look good doing it.

Common questions

Before you call

What homeowners ask most before we quote a window well.

How much does a window well cost?

It depends on well size, dig depth and how the drainage ties in. We assess it on site, then give you one fixed price in writing, free of charge.

My old metal window well is rusting out — can you replace it?

Yes, that's one of the most common calls we get. We'll also check the drainage underneath while we're there, since a failing well is often a sign it needs attention too.

Does my window well need to meet egress code?

Only if the window serves as a required exit for a bedroom or habitable space below grade. We'll size and step it to code if that applies to your project.

Why does my window well keep filling with water?

Usually the stone bed has silted up or was never tied into real drainage. We rebuild the drainage path down to your weeping tile or a dedicated drain, not just refill the stone.

Do you install window well covers?

Yes — clear covers or safety grates to keep out debris and add a safety margin, especially useful with kids or pets in the yard.

Can a window well be part of a larger patio or landscaping project?

Yes — we regularly build them into a patio or walkway layout so the cap and edges match. Ask us about coordinating it with your patio or landscaping work.
