Who We Are…

With over 35 years of experience, the team at Barefoot Construction has been crafting more than just decks – we’ve been building extensions of your Minnesota home, your happy place, your barefoot haven. We’re not your average deck builders; we’re storytellers, sun-chasers, and refined craftsmen, transforming your vision into a space that sparks joy, fuels memories, and leaves you feeling barefoot on a bed of clouds.

We specialize in two key areas that enhance your Minnesota home: deck construction and basement finishings.

Our decks are as beautiful as they are innovative. We use hidden screw Barefoot-friendly technology, leaving a seamless, clean finish that whispers “magic” rather than screws and splinters!

We’re sticklers for perfection, crafting every corner with meticulous detail. Your deck will be a masterpiece, not an afterthought.

Cookie-cutter decks? Not here! We believe in 100% custom creations, tailored to your personality, lifestyle, and wildest dreams.

Our crew is as open-minded as the Minnesota sky, always up for a chat, and a laugh, and going the extra mile to make your experience unforgettable.

We’re Platinum Contractors with all our manufacturers, meaning our decks are built to withstand the harshest winters and hottest summers, year after year.

We believe a deck is an extension of your home, a reflection of your heart. It deserves to be done right, to look amazing, and to become the beating heart of countless memories.

Composite Decking

We aren’t just deck builders; we’re outdoor living architects. We believe your backyard should be an extension of your home, a haven where you can gather with loved ones, soak up the sun, and create memories that last a lifetime. But sometimes, even the most cherished decks need a little love.

As Platinum-level contractors with the industry’s leading manufacturers, Barefoot Construction is the North Metro’s authority on composite decking. We believe your summer should be spent enjoying your deck, not staining it. We utilize “Barefoot-friendly” hidden fastener technology to ensure a sleek, splinter-free surface that stays cool under the sun and holds up against the harshest Minnesota freeze-thaw cycles.

Our decks are engineered for longevity, using moisture-resistant framing and high-performance TimberTech or Trex materials. Transition from “high-maintenance wood” to a luxury outdoor haven that maintains its beauty for 25+ years with nothing more than a simple soap-and-water cleaning.

Basement Finishing

Your damp, unfinished basement is more than just storage—it’s the highest ROI (Return on Investment) project available to Minnesota homeowners. At Barefoot Construction, we specialize in transforming cold, concrete lower levels into vibrant, climate-controlled living spaces. Whether you envision a luxury wet bar for entertaining, a dedicated home cinema, or a legal egress bedroom to increase your property value, we handle the technical complexities of basement remodeling.

From moisture-barrier flooring solutions to custom framing and professional lighting design, our team ensures your new basement feels like a natural extension of your upstairs living area. We don’t just finish walls; we create the “beating heart” of your home’s indoor entertainment.

Home Additions

When you love your neighborhood but have outgrown your floor plan, a custom home addition is the answer. Barefoot Construction bridges the gap between your current house and your “forever home.” We specialize in complex structural additions—from sunrooms and four-season porches to primary suite expansions—that look and feel as though they were part of the original blueprint.

Our process is comprehensive, managing everything from North Metro permitting and foundation work to the final architectural details. We prioritize “live-in friendly” construction, maintaining a clean and respectful job site while we build the extra square footage your family needs to thrive.

Roofing

At Barefoot Construction, we understand that a roof in the North Metro has a tough job—surviving 100°F summers and -30°F winters. We aren’t just shingle installers; we are building envelope specialists. From precision ice-dam prevention to high-impact hail-resistant shingles, we provide roofing systems engineered for the Minnesota climate.

Whether you need a full replacement after a storm or a proactive upgrade to improve your home’s energy efficiency, our team ensures a seamless, watertight finish. We use premium materials from brands we trust, backed by our status as a licensed and insured Minnesota contractor, to give you peace of mind over your head for decades to come.

Garages

Whether you’re looking for a detached workshop, an oversized three-stall addition, or a heated sanctuary for your vehicles, Barefoot Construction builds garages that work as hard as you do. We specialize in custom-built garages that blend seamlessly with your home’s existing architecture while maximizing every square inch of storage and utility.

From initial slab pouring and framing to electrical routing and final siding, we manage the entire process. A Barefoot-built garage isn’t just a place to park—it’s a high-value home addition designed to protect your investments and provide the extra breathing room your family needs. Let us transform your driveway into a functional masterpiece.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)

Whether you are looking for an independent residence for aging parents, a private suite for a caregiver, or a modern backyard sanctuary, Barefoot Construction builds ADUs that protect your family’s future. We specialize in “Universal Design” suites that blend seamlessly with your home’s existing architecture while providing a safe, high-end environment for independent living.

From navigating complex North Metro zoning and pouring specialized zero-entry slabs to integrating smart-home safety tech and final siding, we manage the entire build. A Barefoot-built ADU isn’t just a small house—it’s a thoughtful, accessible home addition designed to keep loved ones close while offering the privacy and dignity they deserve. Let us transform your property into a multigenerational masterpiece.
