"I interviewed and got estimates from approximately 15 contractors when we needed help with a basement renovation that involved everything from demolition, haul-away, framing, and drywall. John was above and beyond the best person who reviewed the job and while we initially hired him for the demolition we've stuck with him for every aspect of the basement renovation because he and his apprentice are spectacular. They're straight forward, reliable, flexible, efficient, communicative, and meticulous with the quality and cleanliness of the work. We'll hire John over and over again for all our renovation needs!"

"Matthew and his crew did a great job on our project. They remodeled a bathroom and made a bedroom out of an unfinished room. The workers were knowledgeable and performed well. Matthew was extremely responsive and caring when working in my parents'home. We would definitely hire them again in the future."

"Vista has come to our house, especially a particular gentleman. Really knowledgeable, very professional. They do several different things. I have had them out to do estimates on gutters. We have not hired them for anything. To give you an idea, when they've come out I was very happy to open the door and see it was the same guy that has come several times to do several things. I interview several people. Not only did he come, and it's a little confusing to me because it has to do with ventilation and insulation, and excuse my language but there is a whole freaking science to this thing, but the owner actually came out. Not only did they keep in communication by computer, the owner actually came out and reinforced the whole education and what needs to be done. I was really thrilled with that. I thought that was beyond the call of duty. I am sorry I was not able to go with them, but I would certainly say as far as customer service relationship, excellent. The information was excellent. Not bothered by the fact that he had to come out more than one time for the same kind of information. I've never had the opportunity to hire them. But I've never been disappointed. They will take the time, they will talk to you, they will educate you, and they will actually give you the best price they can possibly give you. I got educated so that when my  husband came home I could explain to him what is going on. I can't rate their work, but as far as their generosity of time and caring, it's off the charts. I don't know about price because this is a whole new area to me. They were amazing. I have to tell you I have had them out several times as I said, it's Vista Home Improvements so they do several things, but I feel kind of bad that I am yet to hire them. I am trying to think exactly where Vista is out of, but for the owner to com about to your house. We're talking about a wrap around attic. We are talking about getting on your hands and knees and crawling around."

"I hired Jason of Blanchard Design Build for a full basement renovation, and the results were outstanding. Work included drywall, recessed lighting, outlets, a boiler hookup, pool light, laminate flooring, custom shelving, two utility closets, and a bump‑out storage solution. Plumbing was separate, but Jason managed all other aspects seamlessly. The contract was clear, communication excellent, and updates timely. He offered smart design ideas—like covering protruding piping, recommending upgraded flooring, and designing the bump‑out—that elevated the space. This followed a poor prior contractor who pushed peel‑and‑stick vinyl, which failed; Jason explained why and guided me to proper laminate. He worked efficiently with materials I had, kept costs controlled, and finished on time and near budget, with only my chosen upgrades adding expense. Professional, approachable, and fully insured, Jason delivered quality craftsmanship and reliability. Highly recommended for dependable results."

Storm Shelters FAQs, 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.

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.

Brick is the closest choice when seeking to capture the timeless look of stone with a more practical and budget-friendly option. When comparing stone versus brick siding, the price range of $200,000 to $400,000 for average brick home construction is dramatically lower compared to the cost of building a stone home. If you'd like to keep the stone aesthetic without the cost, stone veneer and manufactured stone are both less expensive than real stone.

When comparing the costs of portable containers vs. storage units, the monthly rates are often higher for portable containers. However, you don’t have the hassle or potential extra cost of hiring a truck or movers to transport your items to a storage unit location. If you have to add these costs, a portable container can work out better value for shorter-term rentals.

A 2,000-square-foot modular home costs an average of {AvgCost}, and most homeowners pay between {AvgRangeMinCost} and {AvgRangeMaxCost}, depending on the customization options you choose and the quality of materials. If you choose a more custom design and go all out with upgraded finishes, you could pay as much as $600,000.
