Empirical Construction

Josh and team did a stellar job on our two bathrooms and bedroom remodel. Dan, the project manager, was an absolute delight, which made the process smooth and almost pleasant. Never thought I'd say that about a remodel—especially an unplanned one that was caused by water damage. We will definitely use Empirical for any projects we have in the future.

My wife, my daughter and I hired Empirical Construction after interviewing several contractors in the Denver area. I am a stickler for reading each and every review I can find. From the moment we met Josh we were impressed with the way he “got” what we were trying to accomplish with the project. He came up with creative solutions to the problems we presented to him. One challenge was that we would be out of town for the bulk of the renovations and we needed someone who could do the work and not need too much hand holding from us. We also wanted to work with a designer to help with the overall look of the project and needed a contractor who could work with our designer. We awarded the contract to Empirical and we were thrilled with the results. Our project entailed a complete bathroom and kitchen remodel, hardwood flooring installation and refinishing. Because the house was built in the 1950’s the plumbing and electrical also required extensive upgrades. Empirical did everything by the book and pulled permits and helped us contract for testing for lead. By the book often means more money and time but it also means having a job done right. Empirical did our job right. Chuck was our project manager and he did an outstanding job working with us. He checked in with us weekly to do a video call to update us. Chuck is a problem solver and he was very easy to work with. He is first rate and I think Empirical is lucky to have him working for them. We would not hesitate to use Empirical again if the need arises.

From the initial blueprint to the final touches, Empirical Construction has been nothing short of phenomenal in transforming our house into our dream home. Their team’s dedication and expertise shone through every aspect of our home remodel. Empirical Construction astounded us by completing the project not just on time, but also under budget. This level of efficiency and budget-consciousness is rare and was much appreciated. One of the highlights of our experience the team’s outstanding communication. They kept us in the loop throughout the process, ensuring that we were always aware of the progress and any decisions that needed to be made. The quality of work is evident in every corner of our home. The attention to detail, the choice of materials, and the craftsmanship have all come together to create a space that we love and are proud of. Working with Empirical Construction has been a delightful journey. Their commitment to excellence, paired with their friendly and professional approach, made the entire remodeling process stress-free and enjoyable. We highly recommend Empirical Construction to anyone looking to transform their house into a dream home. Their professionalism, skill, and customer care are unmatched. Thank you, Empirical Construction, for giving us a home that exceeds our wildest dreams!

We recently completed an ADU project with Josh, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The project took 9 months and stayed on time and on budget, which is no small feat in today’s market. Josh was excellent to work with—he provided clear guidance when we had to make budget-conscious decisions, helping us get the best value without sacrificing quality. One of the biggest advantages of working with Josh was his ability to navigate the complex city inspection process, which can be overwhelming. He handled it all with ease, ensuring everything was up to code and staying on top of all the requirements. Josh was also incredibly flexible and available as we added finishing touches and a few unplanned upgrades along the way. His willingness to adapt without pushing us over budget was truly appreciated. We would definitely work with Josh again and highly recommend him to anyone considering an ADU project or a similar undertaking.

Can't say enough about the experience we had with Empirical Construction and their amazing team. Josh was incredibly responsive and quoted us fairly and quickly on our kitchen remodel and communicated our timeline throughout the process. What puts Empirical over the top was working with Chuck as our project manager. Chuck communicated any decisions and changes throughout the process and continually listened to our desires for the remodel. We really appreciated his tact and suggestions when we hit any snags in the planning process and we couldn't be happier with how the project turned out.

We are very happy after working with Empirical Construction to complete a basement finish project. From the initial meeting to the final walk through, the process was very smooth and customer focused. Josh did an amazing job understanding what we wanted to accomplish. As a result, we now have a finished basement that greatly exceeds our initial expectations. We highly recommend Empirical Construction! Throughout the project, communication with Josh and his team was responsive and easy to understand. This included any questions that we had as the project progressed as well as any modifications along the way. In addition, all of the costs were explained up front and there were no surprises that affected the budget. Josh was also able to keep the project moving along as he was able to schedule the next work to be done as soon as the previous steps were completed. Our finished basement is now a great addition to our home. The quality of the work done by Empirical Construction was evident from the initial design phase all the way down to the smallest details in terms of materials and installation. For any future projects, we will be looking to work with Empirical Construction. Josh and his company would be a great choice for any of your home renovation or remodeling needs!

Josh/Empirical are professional, fairly priced and do the right thing when there are issues. The quality of work was good with all of his subs, with some like tile/stone I would rate as excellent.

Josh did an amazing job on our full house remodel. His attention to detail, design suggestions and project management exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend his services.

We had the best experience with Empirical Construction! We first worked with Josh and his team to repair a plumbing issue under our kitchen sink. We were so pleased with the service we received, we asked Josh to complete a remodel project to free up space in our house. He built out a hallway closet for us to move our washer and dryer into. He was very aware of our need for space and gave us many great ideas for the remodel. We were amazed with the quick turnaround and greatly appreciated the attention to the budget. You will not be disappointed working with Empirical Construction.

We hired Empirical to finish our basement over the summer and they did a fantastic job! I interviewed several contractors and Josh was the most professional that I spoke with. He came prepared with lots of information and documentation at our initial meeting. He was very quick to respond and he had an idea for the layout that no one else had thought of. Once things got rolling our project manager was Chuck and I can't speak highly enough of him. He and his team were very professional and everything was completed to our expectations and in some cases beyond. Chuck did a great job of always checking to make sure things were done the right way and if he thought it wasn't good enough he made sure it got done to his standards. He is without a doubt the best contractor I've ever worked with. As far as budget and timeline goes the only things that went over budget were things that we decided to change or upgrade. The timeline also went as expected. Before they even started they gave us an estimate but also told to expect some delays. We expected it to be done by the end of the summer and it was. I would most definitely recommend Empirical Construction for any project and if we need any work done in the future I'll be giving them a call.
