Your Champlin Contractor for Full-Scope Work

Powerbuilt Construction is a licensed general contractor serving Champlin with the full range of residential construction work: home additions, kitchen remodels, basement finishing, and new builds. MN License #BC533891 is on file and verifiable through the state. Bob Powers runs every job directly, so you're talking to the person managing the work when you call (763) 331-2247, not a scheduler.

Champlin sits on the Mississippi River across from Anoka, connected by the Highway 169 bridge, with Elm Creek winding through town before it empties into the river. Much of the housing here went up in the 1970s and 1980s, which means additions and remodels often run into dated framing and undersized footings that need attention before new work goes on top. Permits run through the City of Champlin's own building department, and Powerbuilt pulls them on every qualifying job before the first cut, not after an inspector shows up. Our Ham Lake base is a short run over the river.

What Powerbuilt Handles in Champlin

Custom Home Building

Foundation to finish, permitted and managed by Bob directly. Champlin custom builds get the same oversight as every other Powerbuilt job.

Home Additions

Room additions, second-story additions, and garage additions for Champlin homeowners who want more space without leaving a neighborhood they like.

Kitchen Remodeling

Layouts, cabinets, and structural changes, handled as one coordinated project for Champlin's 1970s and 1980s housing stock.

Basement Finishing

A lot of Champlin homes have a lower level that was never finished. We frame, insulate, and finish it to livable, code-compliant space with proper egress.

Deck Construction

Permitted deck builds in composite or pressure-treated lumber, with frost footings set to Minnesota depth so the deck doesn't heave. Champlin setbacks are checked before a board is cut.

Commercial Construction

Powerbuilt holds residential and commercial licensing for businesses along the Highway 169 and West River Road corridors in Champlin.

Why It Matters

Licensed vs. Unlicensed Work in Champlin

The City of Champlin requires permits on most structural, electrical, and mechanical work, and the city's own building department handles that review. Hennepin County does not issue residential building permits. An unlicensed contractor can still frame an addition, but they can't pull the permit, which means the work never gets inspected, and an uninspected addition turns into a title problem when you sell. Powerbuilt operates under MN General Contractor License #BC533891 and permits every qualifying project before work starts.

What Champlin Homeowners Actually Hire Us For

Older subdivisions near the river mean footings and framing get a hard look before new square footage goes on.

A lot of the calls we get from Champlin are additions on homes built during the 1970s and 1980s growth years, where the original garage slab or foundation was never sized to carry a heated, occupied room. We check what's under the project before we build on it, then handle the kitchen layout changes, load-bearing assessments, and egress work that come with putting old homes back to work.
