"I love the guy that did it. They also do replacement windows. This guy was awesome. he actually called ahead. It had been a rainy week. He called ahead because we were anticipating a storm to see if he could come earlier that day so he could get it done around the storm on the day that he promised. Which I thought was great. He told me everything that I needed to know. It was gutter cleaning and tuneup is how they worded it. He told me every issue that I had. They were minor. I felt like he was honest about it. He was not a pushy salesperson. I actually asked him a couple of questions about other things I needed, He was very knowledgeable. He had just finished the ladies house across the street. Excellent job. I went over there to look at hers. I plan on calling them this summer to come and do some more work on replacing front porch posts and work on my deck."

"Jeff showed up on time and did his work professionally. He recommended replacing 4 vent covers due to splitting or rotting and gave me an estimate for that. He was gentlemanly and well-informed, didn't try to upsell things that weren't needed. I was aware of the deteriorating vent flanges because I had recently had my chimney cover replaced and the pro who did that notified me of their condition. I felt like Mighty Hands did what they were contracted to do in a way that made me confident of their work."

"Junior arrived promptly on Monday to give me an estimate. Due to the rain, he was able to get the job started the same day. He walked Ephram through my house to point out all the places that needed repair. We missed one, during the initial consult so that hole will have to be fixed at a later date. The work was perfect. patched, sanded, primed, sanded and primed again. Couldn't tell that the wall had holes at all. Scope of work was exactly as stated. They don't offer or go beyond what's written on the estimate. You have to purchase any additional supplies they require. In my case, just a few 1x3 planks. In fixed pricing, they worked out to $160/hr but given the quality of the work, it's really hard to complain."

"I live in a  30 year old mobile home.  My bathroom and bedroom was in serious need of repair.  Tom came out and looked at the job.  He gave a ball park estimate and told me to pick out what I wanted and he would take care of the rest.  He also gave a lot of pointers and suggestions for transforming my bathroom and bedroom.  Tom called when he said. Tom worked when he said.  He was very informative every step of the way.  He turned my shack into a mansion in my opinion! We gutted the entire bathroom and bedroom.  Tom started fresh.   I am so happy with what Tom has done for me.  It was very professional and I appreciate everything that he did. I want him to come back out soon and complete my other bathroom.  I have told everyone that I know what  great job he's done.  He is very down home and I never had any worries when he was here. I will refer him to as many as I can. Thanks Tom!!

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

It is recommended that you check with your local building official on barn building requirements and rules, since size restrictions vary greatly from region to region based on what your property is zoned for. Some cities limit barn construction depending on if your property is residential or commercial. The three main factors your building commission will evaluate are:

  • Height and lot coverage: How tall your barn is and how much of your total property it occupies

  • Setback: Distance between barn and property line

  • Easement: Legal right for another owner to access another’s property

Above-ground tornado shelters can withstand an EF5 tornado, which is the strongest tornado category on the Enhanced Fujita Scale. In other words, your above-ground shelter can withstand wind speeds higher than 200 mph. 

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.

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.

It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build a new one. Building a home involves numerous costs, including labor, permits, inspections, utility hookups, and brand-new materials, finishes, and appliances. Additionally, new construction loans can have higher interest rates than traditional mortgages, and property taxes on new homes are often higher, increasing long-term costs. An exception is a DIY house build, which can be cheaper than buying an existing home if you do the labor yourself. While building is generally more expensive, a new custom home offers complete control over the layout and design. Furthermore, new construction is typically worth more than a comparable pre-owned home and may provide a better return on investment if sold quickly.
