Lone Star Home Improvement Company. is family owned and operated with 40 years of experience. We provide any interior and exterior housing needs. If you can think it, we can build it. We strive to satisfy our customers' needs.

"If I could give 4 stars I would. The gentleman bid 350 ft of fence where the posts and fencing wire was already supplied. Only thing he has the purchase was 24 T posts, fasteners, gates and concrete. Total cost averaged 1500 in materials with a tractor rental. He charged internally 7500. My disabled mom agreed and signed the contract unbeknownst to us. Upon inspection from my son in law the posts were not put in the ground properly and we're loose, partly from not tamping, and part from not going past 2ft in the ground on 6ft out. He took materials we paid for, and got a refund. We've yet to see the $$ for. He pays his employees like a third-world country as well. We were also advised that he is not coming back to the jobsite. He has been paid $5000 already."

FAQs for shelter or outbuilding building service projects in Corpus Christi, TX

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.
