Protect Your Basement Windows from Debris and Water

Custom Window Well Covers in Services for preventing basement flooding, debris buildup, and safety hazards around below-grade windows

ProFix Home Services LLC fabricates and installs custom window well covers designed to fit the exact dimensions of your below-grade window openings. You need this service when leaves, trash, snow, and water collect in your window wells, blocking light and creating rust, rot, or entry points for pests. Each cover is built to match your well's shape and depth, keeping your basement windows clear and your foundation dry.



Window wells without covers fill quickly during storms, trapping water against basement windows and seals. Over time, standing water corrodes metal wells, stains concrete, and seeps into window frames. Covers also prevent children, pets, and wildlife from falling into open wells. We measure each well on-site and fabricate covers using expanded metal tops that allow airflow and light while shedding rain and blocking large debris.


If your window wells are filling with water or debris after every rainstorm, contact us to schedule a measurement and discuss material options for your property.

Added Safety to Your Home!

Expanded Metal and Poly Plastic Options for Different Conditions

We use expanded metal as our standard cover material because it resists rust, supports heavy snow loads, and does not obstruct natural light from reaching your basement. You will see a rigid, vented surface that sheds water toward the perimeter of the well while allowing air to circulate beneath. The metal is welded into a frame that rests securely on the rim of your window well, and it can be lifted for window cleaning or egress access.



After installation by ProFix Home Services LLC, you will notice that your window wells stay dry between rainstorms, and you will no longer need to scoop out wet leaves or rotting organic matter. For an additional cost, we can fabricate covers using poly plastic instead of expanded metal. Poly plastic is lighter, fully opaque, and blocks all debris and UV exposure, making it a better choice if you want total coverage and do not need natural light in that area of your basement.


Each cover is cut and assembled to your well's measurements, so irregular shapes and non-standard depths are not a problem. We do not install pre-formed universal covers that leave gaps along the edges. If your well serves as an egress window, we ensure the cover can be removed quickly from the inside, meeting safety requirements without compromising weather protection.

What to Know Before Ordering a Custom Cover

Homeowners in Services often ask about material durability, fit, and maintenance before committing to a custom fabrication, so we have answered the most common questions below.

What is expanded metal and why is it used for window well covers?

Expanded metal is a single sheet of steel that has been cut and stretched into a diamond pattern, creating a strong and vented surface. It does not rust as quickly as perforated sheet metal, and it supports snow weight without sagging or bending.

How do you measure for a custom cover?

We measure the longest length, widest width, and note any corners, curves, or obstructions like downspouts. The cover is then fabricated to sit flat on the well rim with no gaps larger than half an inch.

When should I choose poly plastic instead of expanded metal?

 You should choose poly plastic if you want a completely sealed cover that blocks all light and debris, or if you prefer a lighter cover that is easier to remove and reinstall during window maintenance.

How often do the covers need to be removed for cleaning?

 You should lift the cover once or twice a year to clear any fine debris that slips through the metal and to inspect the window seal and well walls for cracks or rust.

Why does a custom cover cost more than a stock cover?

Stock covers are made in standard rectangles and do not account for depth, shape, or egress requirements. A custom cover fits your exact well dimensions, stays secure in wind, and does not leave gaps where water or animals can enter.

ProFix Home Services LLC builds each cover after confirming your well dimensions and material preference, so you receive a product that fits correctly the first time. Reach out to arrange an on-site measurement and get a quote based on your well size and material choice.
