"I hired Yanover to build a deck and porch, but I would not recommend their services to anyone. Throughout the process, it became evident that customer satisfaction and effective project management were not priorities for them. Here’s a timeline of the most critical issues I experienced: Excessive Project Timeline and Disruption: This project spanned nearly five months, from early April to late September, turning my yard into a construction site for the entire summer. Yanover's repeated delays and lack of coordination meant that I couldn't use my yard or deck for most of the season, resulting in significant inconvenience. Initial Delays and Communication Issues: After making my first payment in April, I received plans that had errors, were incomplete, delivered late and required revisions, causing delays. Over the following weeks, their communication was inconsistent and vague, often providing excuses rather than clear updates. On multiple occasions, work was postponed with little to no notice due to "rain," even when weather forecasts showed otherwise. Unreliable Scheduling and Inspections: Yanover’s scheduling issues became a pattern, with crew members no-showing or being sent without necessary materials. Inspections were scheduled, canceled, and rescheduled with no communication until I reached out myself. Yes, I reached out directly to the county because I could not trust my contractor that I had paid tens of thousands of dollars. Changes to Agreed-upon Plans and Poor Execution: A couple months into the project, they altered the roofline, which added more delays and required additional work to ensure proper drainage. Even after these changes, final inspections were repeatedly failed due to oversight, and issues were corrected only after extensive back-and-forth. Lack of Accountability for Drainage and Paint Quality: When water drainage issues arose after the project, Yanover was unwilling to correct the issues caused by their work and then offered to install french drains for 5x the amount quoted to me by other companies. Later, their painting crew provided poor-quality coats of stain, leaving brush strokes visible. After two coats of the semi-transparent stain I chose, I had to settle for a solid stain to cover the poor work, adding even more time to my already delayed project. Throughout this process, Yanover demonstrated poor communication, unreliable scheduling, and a clear disregard for client satisfaction. I expected professional oversight and clear communication from a construction company, but instead, I faced ongoing frustration and an end product that didn’t meet initial expectations. I would not recommend Yanover to anyone seeking a reliable, customer-focused contractor."

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.
