Business started in 1954. Free Estimates Business Phone 716-570-4777 Building a better WNY one job at a time

"DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY!!! You will be sorry. Mike was the worst person I could have hired to do my GC for my new build. In the beginning he was great. Really enjoyed meeting with him and talking about my project. He was your typical sales man, all talk and very lil if any actions. I would catch him multiple times lying to me and making up reasons why things were not getting done. He will over charge you way more than actual costs. He know the business and even better knows how to manipulate people into thinking he will over see the project. I hired him because I was assured he would be there everyday and make sure everything was done correctly. He never showed up and would never get back to you when there was a problem . Worst mistake I ever made contacting him. I would never recommend him to anyone. Your local paper boy would do a better job being your GC. I could write a book on the amount of problems I had with him."

From painting to fences and all interior work. We are offering free estimates and would love to look at any upcoming project you have in your home. Have a question?

"The process was smooth and quick! Roger contacted me the same day I inquired, was at my house giving me a quote the next day, Sunday, and began work the following day. His estimated 3 day repair was done in 2, and the fact that he started on a holiday Monday meant I barely missed any use of my work from home office, which is one of the rooms he worked in. The repairs were done exactly as I’d hoped. I only wish I had done this earlier. I never expected the process to be so easy. Definitely use Nickel City Repair. You don’t have to live with eyesores you know you will never get to yourself."

We specialize in building, and renovating/repairing decks. We no longer wash/stain decks. Recommendations are available.

"We had a tear off of a 30+ year old pressure treated deck and replaced it with Fiberon decking. Tim Dorner was exactly what you hope for when looking for a contractor. He helped us find just the right product we needed, he was professional, timely and has excellent communication with his customers. That leadership is also reflected in Tim’s crew. I couldn’t be more pleased with their craftsmanship. It is without hesitation I would highly recommend Dorner Decking for your decking job."

Shelter or outbuilding building services FAQs

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.
