Framing a basement and egress window
I have a couple of questions. First I just had my flip property waterproofed or redirected. So, I was told I could not nail any studs or carpet strips to the floor or I would void the warranty. What is the correct method of securing a wall if you cannot nail to the concrete? Second, I was told my windows are too small in the basement to be considered a bedroom and will need to be enlarged for egress. Is this true? The house was built in the 60's and is only a two bedroom. This will kill the difference in price. Any help would be appreciated on either topics.
