What Our Customers Say
My experience with empire builders was good. They are very professional and thorough with their work. I would highly recommend them for any remodels, additions, etc. I included a photo of our new bathroom they built from the ground up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide custom framing solutions for unique remodeling projects?
Yes. We provide custom framing solutions for remodels, additions, ADUs, garage conversions, and other projects with unusual layouts or structural requirements. Our goal is to build framing that supports your design vision while meeting applicable building codes.
Can structural framing accommodate different architectural styles?
Yes. Our team can adapt framing plans to traditional, contemporary, modern, and transitional architectural styles. We coordinate with designers and engineers to ensure the structure supports the intended layout, roofline, openings, and exterior appearance.
How do you choose the right framing materials for a project?
Material selection depends on the approved plans, structural loads, building codes, moisture exposure, budget, and project type. We use code-approved lumber, engineered wood products, connectors, and fasteners from reputable suppliers.
What affects the cost of framing in Sacramento?
Framing costs depend on the project’s size, complexity, material requirements, structural engineering, site access, labor, and permit needs. After the job walk, we provide a clear scope and estimate based on the specific work required.
Do you provide framing services for commercial business spaces?
Yes. We provide commercial framing for offices, tenant improvements, retail spaces, multifamily properties, and other business environments. Our team can coordinate the framing work with permits, inspections, utilities, and finishing trades.
Do you work with architects, engineers, and interior designers?
Yes. Empire Builders coordinates with architects, structural engineers, and designers to ensure the framing supports the approved plans and overall project goals. This collaborative approach helps reduce conflicts during construction.
Can framing help reconfigure the interior space of my home?
Yes. New framing can create bedrooms, offices, closets, hallways, open living areas, and other functional spaces. We can also frame new doorways, windows, partitions, and structural openings when permitted by the approved design.
How do you protect existing areas during a framing project?
We use protective coverings, dust-control measures, organized material storage, and controlled work zones to protect the existing home. Our crews also complete regular cleanup and follow site-safety procedures throughout the job.
Do you provide a one-stop shop for framing and related construction services?
Yes. In addition to framing, we can coordinate engineering, permits, inspections, windows, doors, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, drywall, siding, and finishing carpentry. This helps clients manage the project through one primary contractor.
How do you ensure the framing fits the overall project vision?
We carefully review the plans, dimensions, structural details, and intended finishes before construction begins. Your project manager communicates with the framing crew, designers, and other trades to ensure the completed work supports the final design.
