"Larry was very timely in his response and quick to send an estimate. He was very thorough in his explanation of what was necessary to fix my home. He also matched the color of my other pillars in the front of my home perfectly. A neighbor even came over at the end of the repair to get a estimate on some work for his home! Thanks, Larry!"

"Highly recommend Jhony Ventura! We wanted a 4 x6 widow cut into a wall between a sunny TV room and a dark, windowless foyer. Jhony gave us just what we wanted. He had to move some electrical and we also wanted it framed. Jhony showed up on time, protected our furniture and any mess was cleaned up. We are so pleased with his work and work ethic. I’m sure we’ll use him again."

"I had two bathrooms remodeled. This included new tiles in the showers, new vanities with new faucets, new plumbing fixtures in the showers and painting of both bathrooms. All jobs were performed well and I am very satisfied with the results. Work was completed in a reasonable amount of time and pricing was also reasonable. I can certainly recommend this company."

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

The steep slope of an A-frame roof withstands high winds, heavy rain, and heavy snowfall, making them popular all over the world. A-frames also offer simple, quick construction. Finally, an A-frame typically has large windows on the non-roof sides to let in a maximum amount of natural light. Consequently, they are often an affordable building solution for the right homeowner and location.

Yes, you can finance new construction, though the process often requires a different type of loan than one for an existing property. There are several financing options available:

  • Construction-to-Permanent Loan: This is a common option where a single loan covers the building costs and then converts into a traditional mortgage once construction is complete and you move in.

  • Construction Loan (Stand-Alone): This type of loan provides funding only for the duration of the construction project. Once the house is built, you will need to pay the loan in full, typically by securing a separate, standard mortgage.

  • Builder Financing: Some custom homebuilders offer their own financing options, which may only require a down payment to begin the building process.

  • Bridge Loan: This can be a useful short-term loan to fund your new construction while you are in the process of selling your old home.

  • Home Equity Options: If you are building a second home, you might be able to use a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or a cash-out refinance on your current property.

It's also important to be aware that some lenders may have restrictions on financing for DIY house builds, so be sure to verify that you can secure financing before starting your project.

Technically, there isn't a difference between safe rooms and storm shelters. Both are designed to protect you from storms and extreme weather events. People often use “safe room” when discussing a shelter inside a building and storm shelter when talking about a detached unit. 

Additionally, a safe room is understood to have more functions than a storm shelter. You may seek shelter in a safe room when you believe an intruder is in the home or when under another type of threat. 

Adding a storm shelter can increase the value of a home if you live in an area prone to intense storms. According to the Federal Alliance for Safe Homes, safe rooms can increase the home's sale price by 3.5%. That’s about $10,500 on a $300,000 home, which could be a 100% ROI or more if you build a storm shelter that’s on the smaller side.

To qualify as a guest house, a structure needs to meet your local building code requirements. In some locations, a guest house must be a separate residence from the primary home. In other locations, you may be able to connect the two buildings and still call the second building a guest house. However, a structure doesn’t often need a minimum size to qualify as a guest house.
