I will definitely be recommending Baker and Sons to everyone!! They were very professional and came quickly! I love how they sent a picture of the technician that was scheduled to come and the number he was going to be calling from. They went above and beyond and are fair priced. The technicians were very nice and explained everything that they were going to do. Very pleased with everything!
Living near Tornado Alley means dealing with tornado sirens and storm alerts, sometimes in the middle of the day. If the storm doesn’t dissipate before it hits your neighborhood, shelters offer a quick backup plan.
There are several benefits of owning a below-ground shelter.
Increased safety
More climate control
Extra storage space
Less obstruction in your yard
Higher property value
Being above ground during a storm makes you more vulnerable to damage. With a below-ground shelter in Carbondale, you’ll escape high winds and get quick access to emergency supplies that you stored inside. Your shelter may have room for canned food, water jugs, a battery-powered radio, warm clothes, and other essentials.
In addition to tornados, below-ground shelters could protect you from severe thunderstorms, hail, earthquakes, power outages, and break-ins. You’ll call for help or wait out the emergency in a secure space.
Underground shelters also have better climate control. While air temperatures fluctuate, ground temperatures remain consistent. This saves money that you would’ve spent on heating and cooling and helps you plan ahead.
If you’re worried about shelters taking up space in your yard, underground spaces take up minimal room. You’ll need some space for the door, but the rest of the shelter is completely underground. The door could even blend in with the rest of your decor.
For your safety, Baker & Sons Plumbing is an authorized retailer for Storm Shield Tornado Shelters. Their products meet FEMA and national building code standards for every component, including the stairs, handrails, seating, and ventilation.
