On average, an egress window cost can vary from $1200 to $2500 for the windows and installation. The price difference can be found in whether your egress window has to be simple replaced or involves a project that must meet a host of building codes. By definition, an egress window qualifies as an emergency exit for a basement and must meet housing codes.
