Do you need it?

   

EXAMPLES:

Underpinning of the foundation ensures that the house does not sink when the basement is dug out (floor is lowered) by adding a concrete footing below the original house footing.

If you are planning to increase the ceiling height of your basement, you will need to lower the floor and will most likely need underpinning (or "benching") - talk to a penguin expert for a full evaluation of your unique property.

Egress Windows(s)

*You need at least 1 if you have a direct exit

EXAMPLES:

A basement second suite must have a minimum of two points of exit in case of fire. Further, one point of exit must be in any separate bedroom whether that is a doorway or egress window. An egress window is one that opens easily and large enough to accommodate physical exit, and that generally measures 2'6" by 2'6" or larger. Specifics may vary from municipality to municipality. Contact your Penguin representative for details specific to your area.
