Empire Home Solutions builds decks, roofs, basements, gutters, siding, and concrete projects for homeowners throughout Middletown. Here’s a local detail worth knowing before you plan: Middletown is one of the region’s cities that sits across two counties — Butler and Warren — so which part of the city your property is in can affect how your project is reviewed. On top of that, Middletown has a designated historic district around its downtown and South Main corridor, where exterior work carries extra design considerations. So on every Middletown project, we confirm your parcel’s county and whether it falls in a historic district before finalizing plans. Because sorting that out upfront avoids delays, we do it first. As a result, your Middletown project moves cleanly through review and carries our lifetime craftsmanship warranty.

Some Middletown projects are driven by the home; others by the city’s specific character. Here’s when to call.
Recognize any of these? We handle both the construction and the review process behind it.
We plan every Middletown project around county, historic status, and the correct permit path. Here is how it runs.
1. Site, County & Historic District Assessment
First, we confirm which county your Middletown property sits in and whether it falls within a historic or design-review district before finalizing exterior design.
2. Permit Submittal
Next, we route the project correctly through the City of Middletown and the appropriate county for your parcel, plus any historic design review your property requires.
3. Design & Material Selection
Then we scope the design to your home’s era and Middletown’s requirements, choosing materials suited to a historic or established property.
4. Fixed-Price Quote
After that, you get one number, in writing, before construction begins.
5. Construction & Inspections
Finally, we build to code and schedule City of Middletown inspections as your project requires.
Middletown’s mix of industrial-era homes and newer development means roofing choices should suit the home’s age. For historic-district properties, we plan material and style around design expectations, not just a standard permit.
Basement conditions differ between Middletown’s older historic core and its newer subdivisions on different ground. We finish and waterproof each home on its own assessment.
On historic and established Middletown homes, siding material and profile should complement the home’s character, and we handle seamless gutters built for Ohio’s freeze-thaw and Middletown’s mature tree canopy.
When a Middletown home needs more space, we build additions and manage full remodels as your single general contractor confirming county, historic, and zoning review before the design is finalized.
Butler County, Warren County, or historic-district review, your Middletown project is covered the same way.
