Remodel or Renew Home Improvement Inc. is a family owned team of contracting professionals helping homeowners throughout Massachusetts. Brothers Mike and Tom teamed to form RORHI in 2017 combining their years of experience as general contractors. We provide services in all aspects of home improvement but tend to specialize in decks, siding, paver, patio, and basement remodeling and installation. RORHI has been awarded the #1 Trex deck installers for the last 4 yrs.

"I was with the contractor that made me think that because my good credit I was getting a good financing interest around 7% and he did not tell me that my granite steps had to be removed, he told me after the loan went through at a rate of almost 14% at this moment I would like to cancel the project, I am under a lot of stress and having back issues I am afraid that because I take time off from work I am not going to be able to pay for this high interest loan."

Marco Polo Home Builder has been building homes & doing renovations all over Massachusetts with a great combination of skills-building knowledge, craftsmanship, and professional project management.

We value our clients' needs and work with our crew and subcontractors to prioritize them. We aim to make your dream project a reality and hope to be on this journey with you.

"We recently completed a gut reno and second story addition. After engaging 10 different contractors, MP was the most communicative, interested, flexible and competitively priced. MP has a large in-house team of experts that work efficiently and adapt to the home owner’s needs and preferences. The employees worked 6 days a week and took great pride in their work. They were personally invested in our project and wanted to make it the home of our dreams. The team includes an amazing designer, Nataly, who helped with selecting finishes. The onsite foreman, Adriano, demonstrated expertise and kindness. Seichelle and Marco did an excellent job with operations, ordering materials and problem-solving. We have been back in our home for 10 months. Anytime I have an issue, Seichelle and the team have addressed it. They have gone above and beyond what is expected. We could not be more pleased with our project. We strongly recommend MP for your next project!"

FAQs for shelter or outbuilding building service projects in Groton, MA

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.
