"I like to give a shout out to Nick and W & C Sullivan Properties for the excellent job on the retaining wall that was installed at our home we had built in 1982. I contacted Nick and he came over with a free estimate for us to look at and decide. Nick came out the designated time and came at the time he said he would come. The price Nick gave was great and we said yes and we schedule for that to happen by the following week The crew came out on time and were very professional in their work and attitude,very respectful in every way. The retaining wall was about 57 feet long. The wall was installed in 2 days and 2 hour the next day for clean up. The retaining was level from one end to the other so the wall was on solid level ground. They had large equipment for digging so that cut out a lot of time. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND W & C Sullivan Properties to anyone who want a professional job done and the wall looked great too. I have the utmost confidence in W & C Sullivan Properties and would not hesitate for the next big job to be performed by them. Keep up the great work!"

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.
