Services
Commercial
From parking lots to warehouse floors, we deliver concrete and foundation work built for performance, safety, and long-term value.
Commercial projects require precision, durability, and coordination.
At Jim Barton Construction, we work alongside general contractors, developers, and municipalities to provide high-quality concrete flatwork and foundation solutions that meet design specs, handle heavy use, and stay on schedule.
With over 50 years of experience, we understand the challenges of Iowa soils and weather, and we bring the workmanship and reliability that commercial jobs demand.
Concrete Flatwork
Flatwork is the backbone of most commercial builds. We pour and finish warehouse floors, shop pads, and industrial slabs that are reinforced, properly leveled, and finished to resist wear. Our preparation process ensures the subgrade is stable, joints are placed correctly, and the surface can handle heavy equipment and foot traffic without premature cracking.
Parking Lots
A parking lot is often the first impression of a business. We construct new lots and replace failing ones using proper base compaction, drainage planning, and jointing techniques. Our lots are designed to handle constant vehicle traffic, Iowa freeze-thaw cycles, and water runoff without shifting or breaking down.
Curb & Gutter
Curbs and gutters may look simple, but they’re critical for drainage and site function. We install straight, uniform concrete curbs with properly aligned gutters to channel water away from structures and traffic areas. This prevents pooling, reduces erosion, and keeps lots and streets in better condition.
Commercial Foundations
Every commercial building starts with a solid foundation. We pour footings, walls, and slabs to spec, designed to handle soil conditions, structural loads, and drainage requirements. With precise formwork, reinforcement, and code compliance, our foundations provide the stability needed for retail, office, and industrial facilities.
