"Jim Lockhart is the best of the best. From the time we were planning our project right through completion, he was the model of precision and professionalism. While Jim owns the business, he also worked on site each and every day. Our project together included a 2nd floor master suite addition, additional bathroom remodel, new roof, siding, windows, and HVAC! Jim was always on time and showed up when he said he was. Once our project started he was there every day consistently and worked incredibly hard each day. He worked with high quality sub-contractors when necessary (roof, electrical, and plumbing) and held them to highest standard and was on site while they worked. While construction was occuring, Jim was careful to keep our house as clean as possible and took extra care to ensure my children were comfortable and safe and their home. Jim even took the time say good morning to our dog each day in an effort to make our whole family comfortable! He cleaned each and every day. He was a master communicator and walked us through each step from start to finish. Jim worked on our home for almost 6 months and he took every detail seriously every day. I would highly recommend Jim for any scale job! You would be hard pressed to find a more skilled or professional contractor!"

"H & Y Contracting LLC took our basement from concrete, duct work and exposed pipes to a modern living space that we will enjoy for years to come! Everyone involved in our transformation (framers, drywall installers/finishers, electricians and painters) were professional and focused on completing to task at hand. Especially Paco...the builder's right hand man....who seemed to be here every day."

"This was the BEST experience we could have ever asked for! Wayne from the initial interaction was very personable, professional, transparent, friendly, communicative, knowledgeable, trustworthy and most of all, a good and honest person. We were very hesitant in hiring any contractor to complete our basement remodel but Wayne and Team put all of those fears to bed and delivered an absolutely well constructed, beautiful and comfortable space for our family to enjoy. The project was overall seamless and had a few challenges but nothing that Wayne could not recommend solutions to for a resolve. We were very fortunate to work with Wayne and would do so for all future projects that we may have - in a heart beat. We highly recommend BlueRidge Builders for your next project - definitely worth the time and investment to end highly satisfied with quality well constructed work in the end. Thanks Wayne, we really appreciate you and our beautiful new space!"

Storm Shelters FAQs, answered by experts

Modular homes are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and faster to build than traditional homes. They also offer customizable designs.

If you can’t repair and repurpose your shed, it might be possible to sell it, donate it, or salvage parts rather than them just ending up in a landfill. Professional junk removal services will advise you on what can and will be recycled. You may also want to keep some parts to upcycle them for other projects around your home. Turning planks from your memory-filled wooden shed into a coffee table or bed headboard is good for the environment and the soul.

Yes, particularly handy DIYers can build their own storm shelter, especially when using a prefabricated kit and an existing space. However, it is a large project that can take several weeks, requiring significant manual labor and heavy equipment. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often recommended. You should always leave certain jobs to a pro, such as installing an underground shelter, projects requiring site excavation, or any custom-designed structures. These types of builds are complex, labor-intensive, and can cost more in the long run if not executed properly.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

Below-ground shelters are the best in terms of durability, but there is a risk of flooding and obstruction. Modern technology and rigorous construction requirements make above-ground shelters a better option for accessibility, safety, and, usually, your budget. They may not have the same aesthetic appeal, but many of their features make above-ground shelters a better option.
