Frequently Answered Questions
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Springfield, Oregon?
Building a custom home in Springfield typically costs between $250 and $400+ per square foot, depending on design, finishes, site conditions, and lot prep. A fixed-bid estimate from Kempf Construction gives you an exact price before construction begins.
Do I need a permit to build an ADU in Springfield?
Yes. ADUs in Springfield require permits through the City of Springfield and must comply with Oregon’s statewide ADU rules covering size, setbacks, and parking. As a licensed contractor, we handle the entire permitting process for you.
Can I build a new home in the Jasper-Natron area?
Yes. Jasper-Natron is Springfield’s primary residential growth zone, and we build ground-up custom homes there. We evaluate your lot, handle permitting with the City of Springfield, and manage construction from start to finish.
What's the difference between a general contractor and a home builder?
A general contractor manages and coordinates all aspects of a construction project — permits, subcontractors, scheduling, and inspections — for remodels, additions, and new builds alike, while “home builder” usually refers specifically to new-home construction. Kempf Construction does both.
Do you handle commercial build-outs in Gateway or Glenwood?
Absolutely. We complete tenant improvements and ground-up commercial construction throughout the Gateway and Glenwood corridors, coordinating with architects, engineers, and the city for a code-compliant, on-time delivery.
