"I worked directly with Jasmine. Jasmine was great to work with, very professional and relatable. She was understanding about the sudden changes in color and material I had during multiple consultations. She offered me a vast knowledge of materials and details about the work I hadn’t thought of or didn’t know about. If I have another project in the future I won’t hesitate to reach out to Sentri Homes."

"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 Green and his team were excellent. They arrived on time, taped, and protected my furniture. They continually vacuumed to keep sheet rock dust to a minimum. They had scaffolding to reach the very hard to reach spaces. When delays occurred, (my work was done in the middle of a snow storm) Jr made sure to let me know when he would return. I would not only use Clean Hands Painting again, but I recommend them to anyone that needs quality painting done."

"After looking for someone to repair a porch that was collapsing on a rental property, I found DLB Construction. Dwayne was incredibly easy to work with, gave us a quote that was fair and did work in a timely manner. I live out of state from where the property is, but Dwayne made it easy to manage the project. Once we agreed on a price, he and his team were out at the house and repaired the porch in a timely manner, making it look brand new in the process. Would work with them again, without hesitation."

Storm Shelters questions, answered by experts

A storm shelter's size depends on the number of people who will use it and the types of storms it provides protection from. Tornadoes typically only last a few minutes, so you don't need to spend very long in the shelter when one passes by. You'll want a tornado shelter that's big enough to provide 5 square feet of space per person.

Hurricanes usually last much longer than tornadoes, so you may find yourself in the shelter for hours, not minutes, if you’re facing one. If you're installing a hurricane shelter, you'll need at least 7 square feet per person.

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

When you compare traditional houses to prefab homes, the latter can be more sustainable for many reasons. For example, manufacturers have a more streamlined construction process for modular homes, which means there’s less waste. Additionally, some prefabricated housing manufacturers strive for energy-efficient buildings, and others produce off-the-grid capable homes that produce their own energy. 

Some companies even offer net-zero buildings, which are arguably the most sustainable. So if sustainability is important to you, prefab homes can be a great fit.

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

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.
