"Would highly recommend Jason and Blue Mountain. We recently used him for a master bedroom and bathroom remodel as well as renovations to our screened in porch. Jason was responsive and communicated with us every step of the way. He met the timeline and deadlines that were set for our projects. Jason and his skilled employees were friendly, courteous and a pleasure to have in our home. Their work was meticulous and they cleaned up every day before leaving our home. We are thrilled with our upgrades and have future projects planned with Jason and Blue Mountain Building."

"I have used other contractors in the past this was my worst experience. I called to schedule an estimate and they were booked out 6 to 8 weeks as of March 10 I got an estimate date first week of June the Day of the estimate I received a call if they can reschedule next week they were busy which I agreed upon. The following week they came out took detailed information on what I needed done and stated they had to draw up an estimate and will get back to me. After the third week I started calling to see where the estimate was it took them three more weeks a total of six weeks to get me an estimate and then the estimate wasn’t of the whole project I wanted done. They missed several things so then I got the second estimate which I agreed upon and they stated they will call back with a date for repairs. Second mistake I waited another four weeks before they got back to me with a date on Monday and Tuesday the end of September. They arrived on Monday and Started some of the work I was a little concerned and called Dean Martin co owner and discussed my concerns the following day they did some adjustments and by the time I got there after a four hour meeting in the morning they were gone. Two workers no more than nine hours of work and they stated they will get back to me with someone to do the drywall patching. Granted this was Tuesday no one got in touch with me until the following Wednesday when they asked if they could come in that Thursday which I was out of town. This is incredibly frustrating they are not well-managed in the Their projects. Granted the flooring was nice but the patch work was disappointing for that price entire walls should be replaced not small sections. So now I had to go ahead and hire another contractor to finish the work and the New contractor got back to me the next day. Angie recommended Action Door they were expensive however I thought that came with their work ethics and quality of work which I am far from impressed. I would not recommend this company to anyone. I just lost $4000 down payment incredible"

FAQs for shelter or outbuilding building service projects in Harrisburg, PA
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.
