What Our Customers are Saying

“We hired the James Barton Design Team for a complicated project. We decided to update our dated oak kitchen and dining room to a modern kitchen and office. This included moving a load bearing wall! We put in new floors, cabinets, counters, built a pantry, painted, painted, painted. They were great to work with start to finish and super responsive up until even the end. They handled absolutely everything and left the place clean each day. They finished on time and on budget.” – Christine N.
