Our Story 

I have lived my entire life in Grass Valley, and while I have spent much of my career in the construction industry all over California and seen many beautiful places, I have found no place that can draw me in the way this town does. Grass Valley has always been home, it is my family’s home, and one we all share. I created this company to be able to be home with my family and spend time with my children as they grow.

Empire Construction was built to serve Nevada County, Placer County and the surrounding areas. Our goal is to assist our neighbors with their construction needs in a professional manner, providing our services and craft to create lasting relationships with our clients. We stress the finer details to bring your project to light in its fullest potential.

Allowing someone into your home can be a stressful thing. Our homes are our most personal spaces. When I let someone into my home, I expect them to behave in a kind and respectful manner at all times especially around my family, otherwise they are simply not welcome. I imagine that you feel the same way, and I believe that the businesses that we allow in should be held to the same standard if not a higher one. Empire Construction is committed to create a relationship with you and your family built on a solid foundation of trust and a shared ideal for quality craftsmanship you and your family will enjoy for years to come. We look forward to getting to know you and the opportunity to serve you and yours.

Sincerely,

Tyger Roy

Owner of Empire Construction

  • Tyger Roy has been my go-to for my home remodeling needs. He has replaced a bathtub for me, which necessitated completely redoing 2 of my bathroom walls. His tile work is excellent, and his drywall patches blend seamlessly with the rest of the walls. He also repaired my super steep deteriorating driveway. He matched the look to my existing concrete, and his repair eliminated the scraping that low cars were experiencing as they left my place. His biggest job for me was my deck - he and I went through several layout options before we got to the right design. He does all of the computer work himself. And when we had a setback due to the proximity of the septic tank to the deck, he worked with the county and me until a realistic solution was reached. He explained the details about every possible decision so that I would end up with exactly the deck I wanted. When I wondered if my visions were lining up to my budget, he was willing to politely reality check me - if I asked him to. Whenever it became clear that I wasn't understanding some detail of the process, he was happy to explain, draw out, or show me the concepts to be sure I completely understood them. And he never guesses on any of his work - from how to line up the railing gridlines, to where to set up his staining station, to where he could create a scrap pile - he always checks in. Which meant every detail of the deck was perfect, that I always knew which days were painting days, and no flower bulbs were buried by building materials. He tidies up after himself and leaves behind beautiful work. Tyger doesn't cut corners, and his attention to detail comes through on every one of his projects. I hear horror stories of construction projects gone wrong from others - I never once worried that I would get a sub-par result from Tyger. His work ethic and desire for perfection are evident in his projects, which exemplify excellence.

  • Tyger Roy (Owner) is the best contractor I’ve ever dealt with. He has worked for me for years now. He knows what he’s doing. He shows up on time when he tells you he’ll be there and if by chance something causes him to be delayed, he contacts you asap. When he starts a job, he stays on it until it’s done. He is honest and extremely hard working. When he has a question - he asks you! He doesn’t guess what you want, so you don’t end up with something you didn’t want. He started his trade as a cabinet maker which requires the highest accuracy and attention to detail and he has carried that ethic into everything he does. He is quick too. It takes real skill to work quick and well. I can highly recommend Empire Construction and Tyger Roy. 👍🏻

  • Tyger Roy is an exceptional contractor, who has worked on many projects for me. I have hired him for multiple jobs including foundation work, a stair rebuild, a kitchen remodel, the building of a pump hose and most recently and deck rebuild in Truckee CA. I really appreciated his dedication when the deck rebuild proved to be far more far more challenging than originally expected due to the extensive requirements by the town of Truckee. Tyger took care of everything and was professional throughout every hurdle the town put him through. I have found Tyger to be courteous, and hard working with a wealth of knowledge that makes him my go to guy for all my projects. I highly recommend him.
