In this basement in Millersville, MD, the kitchen window was starting to leak and was in need of replacement. We removed and hauled away the original window to install our EverLast Basement Window, which is double-pane glass, which won't rot or rust and helps prevent heat loss during those cold months. We use special techniques to eliminate air leaks through the gaps around the window ledges, which will make a great impact on electric bills.
