Rising S Bunkers offers the best underground steel shelters, bomb shelters, safe rooms & blast doors on the market. We lead the industry in quality and we have the highest standards for craftsmanship in underground bunkers and other emergency shelters. The Rising S standard of quality is unmatched by any other bunker company on the market today. Additionally, every project is completely customizable. Many customization's are available at no additional cost.

"Not even sure where to begin with this nightmare which I will now need to spend more money in legal just to get my money back if I'm lucky. It all started back in 2022 when a respectful salesperson Gary sold me on an underground bunker. Still to this day, he answers the phone for me, and he doesn't even work at Rising S company anymore. To keep a long story shorter, I paid over $100K for my unit after being pushed to make payments to 'keep it on the assembly line'. It has been paid in full since August of 2023 (just about 15 months for anyone counting). I received a response (finally) earlier this year in March that there is new ownership of the company, and the man in charge is Brad Dancer. After trying to contact for quite awhile, I did finally get him on the phone. He apologized and explained to me that he's in over his head. Even though I believe I have been more than patient, I agreed to give him some time to finish and deliver my unit. We agreed that August of this year (2024) I would have it. I checked in by email in June to ask if we were still on track. I received a response that we were indeed on track. Now fast forward to today (10/25/24), I have been completely ghosted by email, phone, and text. No responses at all by ANY form of communication. At this point, I realize I have been robbed of over $100K. And after reading many other consumers reviews on different platforms, it appears I'm not the only one. I will now begin my journey with the Attorney General and Legal process. I'll update my status here so anyone can see what happens. At least people can get answers some way. It is not a good feeling to not be able to get a company to call you, especially after they've taken over $100k. You can't even leave a message on the office line ( which no one has EVER answered by the way). I don't understand how a company like this could still be in business. My recommendation to anyone reading this.....I hope it's not too late for you."

We can do it all! We would love the opportunity to earn your business.

"We hired Southwest Maintenance and Construction to do remodeling and add a bedroom, bathroom, and closet in my home. The owners are friendly but as for contractors they are not. They splattered paint all over, then told us to paint it ourself a The expensive material that was bought they exchanged for cheaper material, they bought the cheapest fixtures, lighting, they put presswood down on top of a molded floor then layer linoleum on top of it, the flooring was actually supposed to be torn apart and redone.. wainscoting was supposed to be done in one of the bathrooms it was not done nor did they paint it, the flooring is coming up and breaking apart, they are not dependable. They started the job in Oct 2019 and to date have not finished it. But, they sure wanted their money. They were paid $28,000 and did maybe a $5,000 Job. Unacceptable. They put doors up but no knobs for the doors. They did not put any facings between the rooms, it was an absolute shabby job that they never even came back to finish!! I have pictures to show. Now we have to find somebody else to come out and redo the job."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Most cottage builds take between six months and one year from planning to completion. The timeline includes design, permitting, site prep, construction, and finishing work. Factors such as weather, material delays, and permitting can affect the schedule. Hiring an experienced cottage building contractor and making prompt decisions can help speed up the process.

Since building up tends to provide useful bedrooms and other extra spaces without the need to do a lot of foundation work and cut into your yard, second stories tend to have better ROI—up to 65%—than other kinds of additions. But ROI will depend on the type of rooms you are planning and what your current house has. It’s not a very reliable way to judge the success or failure of a project, so consider other factors as well.

Shipping container homes last at least 25 years on average, but they can last even longer with proper maintenance. Since shipping containers are made from metal, they’re quite vulnerable to rust and corrosion. This issue is exacerbated in coastal areas or areas with a lot of precipitation. To extend the life span of your container home, install siding that protects the exterior. 

Prefab kits like a small sunroom for around $20,000 or even a basic gazebo roof for as little as $60 can save you big over professional installation. However, you lose the option for customization, and these structures tend not to last nearly as long. As for bigger projects like a deck or patio, you shouldn’t go with the DIY route unless you’re fully prepped with the tools and know-how to get it done right. Mistakes can be frustrating and costly, so choose a pro if you’re looking to eliminate your risk of error.

Typically, architects do not build homes in a hands-on sense of doing the actual framing, roofing, or other building. Architects usually do not have the training and experience to build the homes they design. An architect would need to know how to do the specific trades required to build a house, which is possible but not a common practice. A general contractor or homebuilder typically oversees the actual details of building the house that the architect designs.
