How to Think Through Basement Remodeling Scope
Around Prospect Heights Bike Path, basements near River Trails can require extra attention to drainage, insulation, egress, and how utility paths affect layout.
Some projects look simple until existing framing, utilities, moisture, ventilation, or access conditions are reviewed closely.
Pro Build Solutions starts by clarifying the scope, reviewing existing conditions, and separating must-do work from optional upgrades before the project is organized.

Featured Basement Improvement
Egress Window Upgrade for a More Usable Basement
Project Summary
A small basement window was upgraded into a larger egress-style installation, creating a safer, brighter, and more practical lower-level space.
Challenges
The existing opening was undersized at roughly 12" x 36", and the project required expanding it to 24" x 48" by cutting into the foundation. In addition, the original drainage setup around the window well was unusable and needed to be corrected to reduce the risk of water intrusion.
Solutions
The new opening was carefully cut, reinforced, and prepared for the larger window installation. A dedicated drainage line was then added and tied into the drain tile system to improve water control around the window well.
Results
The finished window upgrade improved basement safety, increased natural light, and added long-term drainage performance. The space now feels more comfortable and better positioned for everyday use or future entertaining.
