"Installers arrived on the designated day, seemed experienced and went right to work. I had to be away for a few days, so I missed the completion. When I returned my wife said the installers had put everything up, cleaned up, showed her how to operate the accordions, the inspector had inspected, the inspection report had been received and filed. I wanted to see the report so I got it out and it said we had failed; my wife hadn't read it. I called Gulfstream and they didn't know we had failed. The report said fasteners for the panel tracks on the arched windows had to be "6 inches oc maximum spacing." I was disappointed because I believed Gulfstream should have known this. The installers came back a day later and concluded that all they could do was put another fastener between each existing fastener, which would, unfortunately, double the number of fasteners. A few days later another inspector came. By the time I saw him he had completed the entire inspection again; he had been unaware we had been inspected before and failed. He pointed to all the fasteners on the arched window tracks and said he had never seen anything like that before, it was silly, unnecessary and probably weakened the structure as much as it secured the panel tracks. Apparently the rules are subject to individual interpretation.
 Later, because we planned to be away for a few weeks, I believed it a good idea to close all shutters, just in case a storm arose. I got out all the instructions Gulfstream had given me and went to work. I noticed what I thought were a lot of nicks and scratches on the accordions, so I called Gulfstream. The woman who answered assured me that was normal because their weight and unwieldiness made them awkward for installers to handle. She offered to send someone over, but I accepted her explanation: they're all aluminum, so not a big deal. While installing the removable base tracks for the doors' accordions, I noticed that some of the anchors were so deep in the concrete that only a few groves of the bolts engaged. The installers and inspectors must not have been concerned, so at some point I'll buy some longer bolts, if I can find them, just to ease my mind.
All the accordions closed nicely, but installing the panels was hard work. If I had this to do over, I would try harder to overcome my wife's objections to accordions on the bay windows on the back of the house, because schlepping the panels back there is more work than it seems. All the panels were numbered and fit nicely until the last four: they were too long, and no way would they fit. I called Gulfstream and they sent a man over that afternoon. He said the panels should fit because they were all the same length, but he couldn't get them in either: the track dipped a fraction. He cut an eighth of an inch off each panel, and they slid right in. So, closing everything up took me the better part of two days and a fair amount of sweat. I'll need help if I ever have to do this in a hurry, but at least I know now that everything fits..
I'd say Gulfstream did as good a job as anyone could expect. They certainly responded promptly each time I called. They did everything they promised.

"The capacitor on our central air conditioning unit was damaged during a storm. I called Choice Home Warranty and they sent a repair man the next business day. We were repaired and cooling off by afternoon for just the service fee cost! Thanks so much to Choice Home Warranty for their courteous and prompt service!"

"Gerber, Precision Home Improvement, contacted me to schedule a service date immediately after I purchased the Angie List Big Deal. Unfortunately, illness prevented me from scheduling a service date until two months after my Big Deal Purchase. The original service date had to be re-scheduled because of the threat of a huge storm. Wilbur, the painter, arrived promptly at 7AM and worked continuously until 4PM. The prep work included sanding the spackling I had applied to the walls along with spackling and sanding a conspicuous area around my ceiling fan. The price of the Big Deal included painting the ceilings, trim and baseboard too. The painted room looks good."

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.

Yes, many kinds of building permits exist for various projects in and outside your home. Each city sets the permit categories, but they typically cover new construction, alterations, and demolition. For example, you will need a different permit to finish a basement than you would tear down the patio.

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.
