"Joe & Dan did an excellent job building us a four season patio cover on the back of our new home. Their attention to fine details was five star quality. The communication during the whole process was top notch!! (Something that hasn’t always been the case in my home construction/remodeling experience)! Highly recommend you give Joe a call you won’t regret it!! His workmanship was greatly appreciated by the folks who came afterwards & installed our sun/wind blinds that completed our 4 season room. "

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!"

We have a $45 per hour and a 3 hour minimum for basic tasks. This excludes electrical-design-finish carpentry. These tasks would require a bid. Cost will vary according to size and scope. We take great pride with everything we create - from changing out a light fixture to redesigning a yard. My 30 years of experience in the home renovation business is my passion. I have a great eye for design and functionality. Please see my reviews . They speak to my commitment trustworthiness and quality of work. Look forward to helping you create your vision in your sanctuary called home.

"The qualities I really appreciated about Margaux which had me hire her multiple times are: communicative, willing to shift ideas in the middle of a project, able to hear me, works like a dog, arrives in time and works full days, and her mood never changes regardless of how hard she worked or how hot the weather is.

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Enhances property value, ensures safety, and provides a sound basis for future construction.

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

It’s sometimes safe to replace a load-bearing wall with a beam, but you need a structural engineer to sign off on the project. You’ll also likely have to upgrade to a steel I-beam or another material that’s stronger than wood to maintain the level of support you need without the wall underneath.

House framing can be expensive because the materials are pricey, and the job requires a high level of expertise. The more complex the plans, the more expensive the job, but even the most basic frame needs to be installed with high-quality materials and precision. When pricing your home’s framework, remember that a sturdy frame is necessary to create a safe structure.
