NEW JERSEYEgress planning for restoration professionals
Coordinate the opening with the cause, reconstruction, and room use.
Plan Your Project ↗
Separate observed conditions from proposed repairs
Document where water or damage was observed, what is known about the cause, and which investigation remains open. A replacement window or cover should not be assumed to correct an unrelated water-management issue.
Coordinate reconstruction interfaces
Share the planned wall assembly, waterproofing work, foundation repairs, product selection, and any room-use change. Agree who handles each connection so restoration work does not conceal an unresolved opening or drainage detail.
Keep records useful
Use dates, photographs, drawing revisions, and a clear scope. Distinguish the escape-window work from separate remediation, reconstruction, and finishes. Confirm municipal review and inspection responsibilities before closing the wall.
