"I can't say enough good things about Spartan Contracting! They took over a renovation project that a previous contractor had left unfinished, and not only did they complete the work, but they improved it beyond my expectations. One of the biggest parts of the project was redoing my staircase, which had been left in an unsafe and non-code-compliant state. Spartan Contracting not only brought it up to code but turned it into a custom-built masterpiece. It truly feels like a work of art in my home. Beyond the staircase, they also worked on my bathroom and other areas, and every aspect of their craftsmanship was top-notch. The team was professional, reliable, and incredibly skilled, but what really stood out to me was their thoughtfulness and attention to detail. They included me in every decision, making sure I was comfortable with each step of the process, and they were always responsive to my texts and calls. Finding a contractor who is not just technically skilled but also artistic and communicative is rare, and Spartan Contracting is exactly that. Their work speaks for itself, and after this experience, they will likely be my go-to contractor for future home renovation projects. If you're looking for a team that delivers quality, integrity, and craftsmanship, I highly recommend Spartan Contracting!"

Shelter or outbuilding building services FAQs
You need to secure a permit for a tornado shelter when local building codes require it. A permit confirms that your shelter meets safety and construction standards to withstand extreme weather events. FEMA guidelines P-361 and P-320 establish these safety requirements. Permit costs range from $430 to $2,240. Contact your local building department to verify the necessary permits and ensure full compliance with all regulations.
Yes, FEMA will fund up to 75% of your storm shelter installation if all eligibility conditions are met. FEMA allocates funds to state authorities where strict guidelines determine approval and disbursement. Contact your State Hazard Mitigation Officer to determine your funding options and initiate the required process. Secure the necessary documentation to access this financial support.
Tornado shelters add significant value to a home by enhancing both safety and market appeal. A secure storm shelter not only increases the resale value by up to 50% of the unit cost but also provides multifunctional benefits in areas prone to severe weather. Homeowners who integrate features like a gun safe or wine cellar maximize their investment and overall home desirability.
A pre-built storm shelter delivers distinct benefits by reducing overall costs and installation time. A pre-built unit eliminates extensive on-site construction expenses and comes in a variety of sizes and materials to suit different family needs. This design flexibility provides robust protection, ensures rapid installation, and secures your home against extreme weather conditions.
The installation time for a tornado shelter depends on the type chosen. Pre-built shelters are installed in four to eight hours, providing a rapid and secure solution. Custom-made shelters or those that require land excavation demand significantly longer time, taking days or weeks due to extensive preparation, structural assembly, and precise installation to fully meet safety standards.
Space is a critical factor in a storm shelter. FEMA mandates a minimum of six square feet per person for tornado protection and ten square feet per person for hurricane safety. For example, a 5-by-6-foot shelter meets the needs of a family of five in a tornado-prone area. Extra room accommodates emergency supplies and ensures safe, comfortable movement during severe weather events.
