The service
What window well & cover installation is, what a visit covers and where the line is.
The short answer
Window well and cover installation sets a durable well around a basement window, adds drainage so water does not collect against the glass, and fits a cover that keeps out leaves, snow, rain and people. Window Well & Cover Installation in Tiburon is booked through pros who cover its 1 ZIP codes, in neighborhoods such as Downtown Tiburon, Belveron, and Paradise Cay. In Tiburon, the dry season from late spring to fall is the easiest time for outside work, and the fall calendar fills before the first big rain. Each independent pro on NorTech decides their own pricing and warranty terms, and you select the pro.

- Any job where labor and materials together reach $1,000 or more goes to a licensed contractor, and NorTech flags it before you book.
- Cutting a new or larger window opening for egress is the egress window installation service.
- Repairing foundation cracks, interior waterproofing and sump systems are separate services.

Before you book window well & cover installation
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Look in the well after rain
Check whether water stands in the well and how long it stays. Photos of the water level and the window help the pro plan drainage.
Check the window and sill inside
Look for stains, rust, peeling paint or musty smell below the window. Those signs are worth showing your pro, who can assess them.
Trace your downspouts
Look at where gutters discharge near the well. Moving a downspout is a smaller fix your pro may suggest.
Measure the well
Measure width, depth and how far the well sticks out from the wall. Covers must fit these dimensions, and custom sizes take longer.
Decide if the window is an exit
If the basement window is an egress for a bedroom, the cover must open from inside without a key or tool.
Clear the area
Remove plants, mulch and stored items around the well so the crew can dig. Mark irrigation lines and cables you know of.
Say where in Tiburon you are
Add your neighborhood, for example Downtown Tiburon, Belveron, and Paradise Cay, or your ZIP code to your notes. Pros choose the neighborhoods they cover, and it tells them how far they have to travel.
