"The project went better than expected. Dave was punctual, and very helpful with both my refrigerator install and connecting waterlines. I felt comfortable with him in my home. Dave was refreshingly honest and referred me to a dependable source to work on a project that was outside his expertise. I appreciate his willingness to accommodate me on a weekend."

"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."

"From meeting with the owner, Charles, right through the end of the project this was a great experience. Charles called daily to keep me updated, which I appreciated very much. The work crew, Lead person Ron, Joe, Alex, Martin the plumber, Heran the electrician, David the stucco person, were all very professional, knowledgeable, and polite. Lots of precautions were taken to protect floors, walls etc. The work site was cleaned up daily at the end of the day. Overall, this company is GREAT! A BIG thanks to Charles and crew!!"

"Our roof was in bad shape and we needed to have it replaced. I had gotten estimates and decided to go with Home Pro Remodeling. Emil and Brian were our contact people for the project. Emil was very professional and paid attention to our concerns. He worked with us through the entire project to our complete satisfaction. Brian is extremely courteous and helpful as well! The project went very smoothly, was completed before the initial project end date, and the results were beyond our expectations. The job turned our beautifully! Our new roof looks FANTASTIC! Our neighbors have commented to us how great it looks. We are very pleased with our experience with Home Pro Remodeling and would definitely recommend them."

"I can’t say enough good things about Jake and his construction company. He recently completed an addition on our home, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. Jake was professional, dependable, knowledgeable, and took a lot of pride in his work. He kept us informed throughout the project, paid attention to the details, and made sure everything was done right instead of cutting corners. The quality of the finished addition exceeded our expectations and looks like it was always meant to be part of the house. It’s hard to find a contractor you can truly trust, but Jake is one of them. He showed up, followed through on what he promised, and treated our home with respect. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. I would recommend Jake and his company without hesitation to anyone looking for quality construction work. Five stars all the way — we would absolutely hire him again!"

"We recently hired Pen and Mason to expand our pantry, build a custom coffee bar, install new electrical outlets, and replace the carpet on our stairs with beautiful vinyl plank flooring — and we could not be happier with the results! From start to finish, their team was professional, friendly, and attentive to detail. They took the time to understand our vision, offered helpful suggestions, and executed the work flawlessly. The pantry expansion is so functional, the coffee bar is my new favorite spot in the house, and the new flooring completely transformed our stairs. They also handled the electrical work seamlessly, ensuring everything was up to code and perfectly placed and they also put up with my picky husband in the process."

"David and Efrain did an amazing job converting our oversized 2 car garage into a one bedroom apartment. They were very attentive, cost conscious and efficient! They were on hand monitoring the subcontractors and making sure the job was done correctly. They did a great job and we are very gratefully for their hard work!"

Storm Shelters FAQs, answered by experts

The average cost of building a cinder block storm shelter can range from $3,000 to $20,000 or more, depending on various factors. Size, location, additional features, and customization all influence the overall cost. A smaller, basic shelter might be more budget-friendly, while larger or specialized designs may incur higher expenses. 

The time it takes to build a cinder block storm shelter depends on various factors, such as size, complexity, and weather conditions. Generally, construction can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. Proper planning, obtaining permits, hiccups in the building process, and finishing touches all contribute to the timeline. 

While it may require some patience, the end result will be a reliable and secure shelter ready to protect you and your loved ones during severe weather events.

Yes, barndominiums can be two stories. Blueprints for barndominiums can safely support multiple stories or vaulted ceiling heights of 14 feet or more. Barndominiums are prized for their ability to be modified and customized to suit the builder’s preferences, and many barndominium construction companies offer a variety of different floor plans to choose from.

It depends on your budget and what you’re trying to achieve. If you’re looking for a fast and easy solution, buying a cooler or prefabricated root cellar is a good choice. 

But, if you want ample storage space to house your many fruits, vegetables, and root crops, you should build a root cellar for the long term.

Local zoning laws and building codes will determine whether you can build a guest house in your backyard. These laws may limit the potential location of the guest house on your lot or the size and look of the structure. If your lot isn’t large enough, you may not be able to build a guest house at all. Speaking with a local home addition company can help you learn about the local regulations and your other options, such as adding an ADU onto the main house.
