Empire Construction is a locally owned and operated business in Northern Idaho. I’ve been established since 2003. We pride ourselves in timelyness, neatness, and superior customer satisfaction. No job is too small for us. Try us once and you'll experience our quality and professionalism. We are licensed, insured, and bonded. Give us a try.

"Erin is an extremely good carpenter who built a large covered deck for us this last spring. We had several contractors bid the job and Erin was very competitive with his bidding. His helpful concern for our construction saved us time and money. We noticed he kept the work area very clean; and he did not waste materials. He offered design ideas that enhanced our original design plans without costing us additional moneys. I highly recommend his company and intend to keep him as our go-to contractor on any further projects we decide to do. Max Simpson [email protected]"

"Bugle Construction ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I couldn't be happier with the work that Bugle Construction did on replacing my deck. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional and stress free.They provided a clear estimate, kept me updated every step of the way and completed the project on time and within budget. My deck is solid, safe and absolutely beautiful. The added space has been a game changer. Joseph has been a pleasure to work with, he and his crew combine skill, reliability and genuine pride in their work. I recently noticed an area on my deck that needed some attention and Bugle came back two years later and took care of the issue. Micah was masterful and my deck looks brand new. I highly recommend Bugle Construction to anyone considering a new deck or replacement. I will call them again for future projects!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

The best way to calculate framing costs is by basing your costs on the square footage of your home. On average, framing your home could cost anywhere between $7 and $16 per square foot. 

To ensure you don’t go over budget, base your estimates on the higher end of the price range. If you know you’re going to use high-end materials or require a custom or complex build, you might even want to tack on an additional 5% of your budget.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Any bowing in a basement wall signals an issue that needs to be addressed. However, bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches. That’s why it’s essential to call a pro as soon as you notice the bowing wall. The sooner you address the problem, the easier (and less expensive) it will be to repair.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.
