"Excellent job! Done on time with quality work even though they had to cut through an exterior concrete block wall and had little crawl space. Keith is good at thinking through details and saved me a bunch of money. Highly recommended!"

"Dee was great! He fixed two closet door tracks in our rental so they did not have to be fully replaced. So he saved us money and did it on super short notice! He was on time, clean, nice and professional. I will be using his services again! Thanks, Dee!"

"I also asked for estimates on some wood rot repair on the Chimney and dormers.The repairs were done to my satisfaction.
I asked for estimates on some other work and it seemed their estimates high in price.I will obtain other estimates to check their prices.I am not sure if the price for the wood rot repair was a fair one but i contracted the work since they were already on the roof.

"H&W All Construction completely transformed my kitchen! From the first consultation to the final walk-through, the team was professional, communicative, and incredibly detail-oriented. They helped me bring my vision to life with updated cabinets, new countertops, and a more open layout that feels so modern and functional. What I appreciated most was how clean and respectful they were throughout the process. They stayed on schedule, kept me informed, and the quality of the work truly shows. I’m beyond happy with my kitchen and definitely recommend H&W All Construction for any remodel!"

FAQs for shelter or outbuilding building service projects in Havana, FL

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.
