If the contractor said we can't because of red clay, I would hire one from nj.
Tornadoes have serious power.

Or here is another idea...
Rebuild, but make an underground house. Not only would it be safe from tornadoes that happen there every year, but the earth would help insulate the home.
Using BlackMonster's knucklehead comment as an example, why doesn't LA fall to pieces with every quake? Because they build the structures now to be able to withstand quakes. Smart people who live in flood zones do what? They elevate their homes. If you live in the arctic, you insulate your home. If you live in the tropics, you shade and insulate your home. Yet, these idiots in the Midwest just keep rebuilding the same shit over and over and over, out of wood, and expecting a different result every year when the tornadoes come. Logic says that if you live in tornadoes alley, you build your freakin' house underground, build it once, build it with concrete, and you'll never have to rebuild it again. Some people are smart enough to have storm shelters they can hide in, but none of them are smart enough to turn the entire home into a storm shelter.
Why do people run under highway bridges if they are caught out when a tornado comes? Why don't those bridges ever rip apart like their wooden houses?
The third pig builds a house of bricks. The wolf fails to blow down the house. The end.
