"Patrick Benigno came out today to give me an estimate for a new patio cover along with removal of the current cover. We went over what I wanted and expected of the new cover. I explained my expectations and what was a “must have.” The must have was guttering on the outside of the cover with gutter guards. We went outside so he could measure and determine what had to be done. He went over the product as well as the process. He was very thorough and I only had a couple of questions because he had already covered my main questions. We signed a contract the same day. I would highly recommend Four Seasons Home Products if you are interested in a patio cover."

Essential Extras, Inc. creates unique outdoor spaces and structures such as screened porches, gazebos, pergolas, shade arbors, and custom fencing and privacy screening. Designs and projects often include landscaping, hardscaping, and low voltage lighting. We design to match the scale, look, style, and flow of the existing area. Our full portfolio has thousands of pictures of our decks, pergolas and other projects. We use many different railing and decking materials–mostly woods, plastics, composites and aluminum. We do most types of residential remodeling from small repairs to major projects like room additions and basement refinishing. Our process begins by determining the function or desired end result. Then we work back to the physical project so that our designs integrate the rationale, the physical setting, and our clients' taste. We strive to be truly custom and creative. No two people or projects are alike. Essential Extras, Inc. easily accommodates unusual projects, situations, and unique custom original designs. We make interior, exterior, added, or remodeled space blend into existing space structurally, functionally, and aesthetically–we make it look like it "belongs". Depending on your preference, we offer design and plans service, construction supervision, design/build agreements, or complete turnkey service.
"Terry was very informative and provided lots of input during the initial design process to help us determine the best use of our space. He is very thorough and kept us informed during the construction process. Marty, is a great installer and was very tidy and meticulous with his work. Jeff from Monarch Concrete is great to work with as well. His team did a great job forming our new concrete patio and finishing it. We love our new deck and patio and would recommend Terry and his team at Essential Extras to anyone who needs this type of installation."

With proper maintenance, shipping container homes can provide decades of service comparable to traditional construction. The steel framework offers natural resistance to common housing threats, including insects, fire, and mold.
Regular maintenance should include rust prevention, exterior coating renewal, and inspection of connection points between containers. Quality foundations with proper drainage significantly extend lifespan by preventing ground contact deterioration. With appropriate care and protection from the elements, these structures remain serviceable for 25 years or more.
When properly engineered and anchored, container homes demonstrate impressive resilience against severe weather conditions. The steel construction that withstands ocean shipping provides inherent structural strength against wind forces. Appropriate insulation systems manage temperature extremes while preventing condensation issues common in metal structures.
In hurricane-prone regions, professional anchoring systems and reinforced connections between containers create a unified structure. However, comprehensive weather protection requires quality windows, doors, and roofing systems beyond the basic container shell.
Securing conventional financing for container homes presents greater challenges than for traditional construction. Many mainstream lenders have limited experience with alternative building methods and may have concerns about market valuation and resale potential. Construction loans or portfolio lending from smaller financial institutions often provide more viable paths.
Presenting comprehensive architectural plans, professional engineering documentation, and clear permitting approvals strengthens your application. Some homeowners utilize personal loans, home equity from existing property, or specialized alternative housing financing programs to fund their container home projects.
Regulatory hurdles represent a primary obstacle, as many jurisdictions have limited provisions for container-based structures in their building codes. Technical challenges include creating effective insulation systems for metal walls, managing moisture and condensation, and implementing appropriate structural reinforcement around openings. Logistical considerations involve transporting containers to the building site, especially in remote locations with limited access.
Additionally, creating comfortable, functional living spaces within the dimensional constraints of shipping containers requires thoughtful design approaches. Addressing these challenges early in the planning process helps avoid costly complications during construction.
