Camco Construction Inc.

Licence-matched permits run from right-of-way work in Spokane Valley in 2012 to residential sewer permits, a remodel in Spokane Valley and an alteration in Chattaroy in 2026, with additions in Spokane and Otis Orchards and commercial tenant improvements in Spokane Valley in between. Since 2021 Camco has filed prevailing-wage work as prime contractor for SNAP, the City of Spokane, the Spokane County Health District, the Spokane Fire Department, Spokane County Environmental Services and Spokane Parks & Recreation, with apprentices on the job. The crew runs four to six people. The company says it dates to 1976 and is family-owned, and the state lists Leif Challender and Amelia Challender as principals since 2021. Camco leans toward commercial and scheduled work more than quick residential repairs. A tenant improvement, an agency job with prevailing-wage paperwork, or a home addition that also needs a new sewer line or site excavation fits the way this business is set up, since one contractor can carry both the building and the trench. The company advertises deck and patio construction and accessibility upgrades too, and lists Coeur d'Alene among the places it works. Before comparing quotes on a remodel or addition, write down the scope in the same terms for every bidder: square footage, what gets demolished, who handles the permit, and whether excavation, foundation and utility hookups are included or excluded. On older Spokane and Valley lots, ask each contractor how they'll handle the sewer connection or septic, and what happens if they hit rock or an old line. Get the payment schedule, change-order process and final-settlement terms in writing, so every bid is measured on the same line items.
