"Whatever you do -- do NOT hire this company! I gave S&R Eagle Services a 50% deposit to tear out and replace a small deck on my townhome'24. They promised the work would be a simple 2-day job for them and they promised it would be done by the end of the summer. Unfortunately, all I received from them after that was lies and broken promises. After getting the BBB involved, the owner Sara Luevano still will not return my deposit and want to charge ME a 20% "cancellation" fee for never building my deck! In addition, the materials my HOA had approved last year were discontinued and are now no longer available. They made up lies with the BBB trying to make up excuses for dropping the ball on replacing my deck. Then they wanted me to wait around several more months this year for them to get around to getting their contractor's license in El Paso County for several months -- since they hadn't renewed it! By then, it was obvious the owners are liars, dishonest and not reliable. NO THANKS! "

We are a full service home remodel company with Handyman services offered. We specialize in kitchens, bathrooms, & basement remodeling. We also offer new builds (and consultations) for ADU's, garages, & decks. Lastly, we have a trustworthy subcontractor group that is licensed & recommended, to provide remodeling aspects such as cabinetry, doors, windows, granite/countertops. Inquire about our concrete services & patios!

"This is a honest review that has good and bad points. Out of 5 contractors interviewed, Nick was the only one willing to listen to our vision which was not the typical current remodel. We needed to take out a wall to open our kitchen and rearrange the layout and add gas lines. We needed to take one giant out of date bathroom and make it into two. Nick had a reasonable quote for all the work and his time frame set perfectly with our needs. Unfortunately we did not do our research to confirm the city rules for remodels nor did Nick include permits in his bid. Our horrible neighbor called the city to report us and the city shut our work down for 3 weeks. We had to cut items out of the scope of work and budget to now cover the permits. Understandably this delay would cause further issues in the time frame and Nick's team would need to begin working on other projects. Many times Nick would say or text that he would be at our site to do certain work at particular times and he would not show up at those times or complete the work as discussed. We did some of the work ourselves such as paint. Grout for the tile and baseboards was not cleaned up properly off the painted walls which meant we had to repaint much of the walls again. We asked for this grout to be addressed during final walk through but were told that painting was on us to do again. We felt that if the grout had been cleaned when it was wet and paint had been on their scope of work that perhaps it would have been dealt with properly from the start. When it came to installing the new appliances, our brand new front door was damaged as they brought in the fridge. Nick accepted responsibility and fixed it as best as he could. He also lost our garage door opener which he paid us for. Now for the good points, tile work looks great. The shower is impressive and we appreciate the time and details spent on creating it. His cabinet supplier is good and well priced. The plumbing and electrical sub contractors were excellent and we have recommended them to neighbors for smaller issues. Nick and Russell work **** ** the job at hand. Our situation just didn't go as planned and caused frustration on both sides which was amplified when there was poor communication. Perhaps if our situation didn't have so many bumps or was on a smaller scale then I would be able to give A rating. But we want to be honest and say that we failed on our research and understanding but Nick as the professional should have been ahead of possible situation to help us prevent the big delay and costs."

FAQs for shelter or outbuilding building service projects in Denver, CO

A bomb shelter is an abode built to withstand disaster. Bomb shelters may refer to a space or bunker that can protect inhabitants through a hypothetical nuclear attack, apocalypse, or any other massive crisis. People usually build bomb shelters underground and stock them to live there a few days to a month at a time. Doomsday bunkers accommodate long-term living rather than just through a short crisis.

Builders construct bomb shelters with reinforced steel, box culvert, concrete, or other durable materials (but many professionals do not recommend shipping containers, as they’re not designed to live underground. If building underground, you’ll first have to excavate land before building the actual structure. You’ll have to implement air and water filtration systems, septic systems, and power supply.

It takes a lot of experience to safely and legally construct a bomb shelter, not to mention make sure it’s fit to live in for extended periods of time. It’s best to talk to a residential structural engineer near you for proper guidance.

The current standard filtration systems require filtering both air and water. For air, you’ll want an NBC filter system, which both domestic and international producers make. NBC stands for Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical, which filters out all three. If you’re only building your shelter for natural disasters, chemical attacks, and biological attacks, you may opt for the less expensive HEPA filter system. 

Water filtration requires the same level of care. You’ll likely want to have a large water storage capacity to survive short-term disasters. For long-term living, you’ll want to have a water filtration system.

Rising S bunker prices depend on the size, ranging anywhere from $20,000 to $9 million. Their least expensive model is 96 square feet while their most expensive model has a gym, swimming pool, hot tub, and bowling alley.

  • Mini: $45,500

  • Standard Bomb Shelter: $67,500–$109,500

  • Silver Leaf: $140,000–$182,500

  • Admiral: $180,000–$500,000

  • Xtreme: $450,000–$780,000

  • Xtreme Bunker Complex: $840,000–$1,830,000

  • Luxury Series: $3,800,000–$9,600,000

You almost always need a permit to build a bunker on land with any type of public utilities running through it. You’ll want to check with your local building code enforcement agency to see if this is the case for your area. 

Because you’re building a structural component that often requires electricity, water, and sewage services, you’ll need to apply for permits to attach these utilities to your new property. However, off-grid-only units in rural areas may not need all or any of the permitting you’d normally find in more urban settings.

To survive a nuclear blast, you’ll need to have your bunker at least three feet underground. However, it’s usually advisable to put it further underground. To survive a close strike, you’ll want to have the bunker at least 10 feet down and with five-foot thick reinforced concrete. However, knowing exactly how deep to build depends on the size of the blast you’re trying to avoid. Most bunkers don’t need to be more than 5 feet below the ground.
