Barndominium Construction in St. Paul, MN

Orton Companies designs and builds barndominiums in St. Paul in Minnesota — living space, shop, and storage under one roof, detailed for Minnesota weather.

A shop-house in St. Paul has to work as a home and as a building you can pull into. We plan the living layout with the bays, the doors, and the insulation so the structure is permitted for how you will actually use it. Design and construction stay with the same crew from the first sketch to move-in.
