Egress Window Installation in Rockford: Questions
Are most Rockford homes old enough to need an egress window for a basement bedroom?
Many are: about 74% of Rockford homes were built before 1980 and the median home dates from 1963 (ACS 2024 5-year). Whatever the age, a basement sleeping room needs a code-size escape opening; the installer checks the existing windows during the estimate.
