I am dedicated to fit every need of the customer no matter the job. I know the feeling all too well to be a customer who hired contractors to do work for top pay that was not satisfied when it was completed. I will go above and beyond to make sure before the job is finished that the customer is not only satisfied but would be willing to recommend or use me for future work. I have skills in interior finishes such as painting, ceramic, flooring, acoustical drop ceilings, door installation, finished trim work, installing ceiling fans, light fixtures I am capable and have resources to help with any exterior needs also. I was in the Machinist trade for 17 years working in the defense/aerospace industry and bring the same level of precision and attention to detail to the customer when completing there remodeling needs. I will always manage and maintain a clean and neat work environment for the customer and will meet any need necessary for each individual customer.

"Awesome work ethic and attention to detail. Brandon took our vision of what we wanted our kitchen and new floors to look like and brought it to life. He was very thorough and made sure everything was exactly the way we wanted it. He gave us realistic expectations and was very honest about timeframe to completion of the job. His team were very clean and during the work process maintained a clean environment carefully getting up dust and demo materials before leaving the job. He was also very respectful of our dog who lives in our home while his team worked. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for remodeling and restoration of the home. We look forward to hiring Brandon and his team for future projects at our home."

FAQs for shelter or outbuilding building service projects in Bedford, VA

Most municipalities require a building permit before you install a tornado shelter. That paperwork proves your shelter meets all safety and construction rules—including FEMA P-361 and P-320 guidelines—for extreme weather. Permit fees start at $50 and can run up to $100. 

Check with your local building department first so you know exactly which forms to file, how long approval takes, and whether any extra inspections or fees apply.

Pre-built shelters keep costs down and install in just a few hours, so you’re protected sooner. Because they arrive fully engineered, you skip most on-site construction fees but still get a unit tested to stand up to severe weather. Models come in several sizes and materials, letting you pick the option that best fits your family and budget while still meeting FEMA standards.

A pre-built shelter goes in within four to eight hours. Custom builds—especially ones that need excavation—can stretch into days or even weeks because crews have to prep the site, pour concrete, and assemble the structure piece by piece. The longer timeline simply reflects the extra work needed to hit strict safety standards.

Plan on at least six square feet per person for tornado protection and 10 square feet per person if you also want hurricane coverage. For example, a 5-by-6-foot shelter comfortably fits a family of five. Add extra room for emergency supplies so everyone can move around safely during a long weather event. Enough space keeps your family both protected and comfortable.

If you live where tornadoes or hurricanes are common, a storm shelter isn’t a luxury—it’s a must-have. The reinforced walls guard against high winds and flying debris, giving your family a secure place to ride out the worst weather. Adding one is an investment in peace of mind every storm season.
