MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

We are in the business of producing high-quality residential structures. With a focus on custom homes and distinctive living spaces, our projects range from thoughtful renovations to multi-million dollar residences.

“We knew from the very start that we had the right fit for our project. We interviewed no other Contractors…. The new house and studio complex was a difficult build with numerous complex and intricate details. Doug and his team worked thru the numerous ups and downs, typical of any construction process, and did so with professionalism, competence, honesty, and perseverance. Communication regarding the status of construction, the state of the project financials and the construction timeline was always direct, thorough and on point.  The quality of the finished project speaks for itself. I would highly recommend Barton Construction for anyone considering building a custom residence.”

“Our renovation/addition experience with Doug was great.   He listened to us and helped turn our wishes and goals into a finished project.  He understood our vision and contributed numerous suggestions and ideas that enhanced that vision and made the end result even more special.  His attention to detail and quality were the best.  We have complete confidence in Doug’s professionalism and ability, and would recommend Barton Construction to anyone.”
