Let’s take the stress out of home remodeling.
From start to finish, James Barton Design-Build works with you every step of the way to bring your dreams for your home to life! Our in-house home design team is eager to sit down with you and learn more about your ideas for your home. Before a nail is set, you will be able to visualize your end results with 3D renderings of your new home design. We will then work together to develop a workable and practical plan that delivers your desired result and stays within your budget. Finally, these plans are brought to life right before your eyes by our in-house construction team and carefully selected subcontractors.
Every James Barton Design-Build home remodeling project begins with conversation. During this conversation we get to know more about you, your family, and your dreams for your home. Building a personal connection with each of our clients allows us to most accurately understand what they are looking for and provide relevant ideas they might not have considered. Take the first step towards your dream home by connecting with our team today!

James was extremely knowledgeable and listened to our issues,” said the homeowners. “We liked the advantage of having a full design before building to maintain timelines and budget, and we didn’t want to project manage the construction or different components of the build. Throughout the design process, we learned more about how JBDB operates and felt confident the job would be completed exactly like we envisioned.

This is the 4th project we’ve done with JBDB – they are an excellent company to work with and all their employees are great people as well as professional! Such a great team!
The Kauls, Burnsville, MN
We have followed your projects for at least 5 years & based on what we saw expected great work, but you EXCEEDED our expectations! Every detail met with our satisfaction. The entire team was fantastic!
John & Nancy Tauer, Apple Valley, MN
Very well done project! JBDB is a great group of people to have working in your home. They get it done and on time!
John and Keri, Apple Valley, MN
When James Madsen heard the Chamber was considering moving into new offices, he offered to build a new conference room and storage room at no cost to the Chamber. The following year, he built an addition to the community center. This year, he provided a daycare in a building he co-owns and helped them purchase and install a new playground. True philanthropy is when you just do what is right and needed without asking for notoriety.
Ed Kearney, President, Apple Valley Chamber of Commerce
It was a fantastic project! The job John did getting all the subcontractors lined up was awesome. The project flowed so nicely. There were no problems that the JBDB team could not resolve!

Jay Micholic, Rosemount, MN
I can’t say enough about how impressed we are with James Barton Design-Build. I never had any doubt about the quality, but I didn’t expect to feel so comfortable with the amazing team you gave us.
Kevin & Jennifer Bollum, Apple Valley, MN
Every step of the project was itemized and scheduled. The schedule was followed like clockwork. The finished product is beautiful and was completed on time.
Doug Andersen, Apple Valley, MN
Emily, Ryan and Troy were great to work with though our entire project! The project commenced and finished on the dates established by Troy, adjusting the schedule where necessary to accommodate all of the variables involved with an assignment like ours! We could not be happier with our end product and cannot wait to work with this team again on our next home improvement project!

When we met with JBDB it was clear they had the most realistic idea of what we were trying to do.
The Petersons, Burnsville, MN
Detailed, professional, reliable and a pleasure to work with. So often contractors are late or unresponsive, but not JBDB!
