About Us

Stump Development was founded on a clear mission: to create thoughtfully designed, exceptionally built homes that stand the test of time. With roots in design, construction, and ground-up development, we’ve built our business on the belief that a home should reflect the people who live in it and the environment it inhabits. Our background developing our own turn-key projects has given us a deep understanding of how great architecture, smart planning, and quality craftsmanship come together to create spaces that feel intuitive, enduring, and refined.

Today, we bring that experience to every client project. Whether building a new home from the ground up or providing focused expertise in design or construction, we approach each project with the same commitment to clarity, integrity, and excellence. Stump Development is not just a builder — we’re a team dedicated to creating homes with purpose, character, and lasting value.

Led by founder Andrew Barker, Stump Development brings together deep design expertise and hands-on construction experience. With over a decade learning the family business, both his father and brother being well established architects, years leading construction teams at Barc Architecture, and a background in hand-shaping surfboards, Andrew has developed a unique blend of technical skill, craftsmanship, and design intuition. His BFA in pictorial arts further informs his ability to create spaces that are both functional and visually compelling.

His partner and wife, Hailey Barker, adds a refined interior design perspective, bringing strength in space planning, materials, and finishes. Together, they ensure every home is thoughtfully designed, beautifully built, and truly livable.​We specialize in:

  • Custom Homes

  • Additions & Remodels

  • Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)

Licensed, insured, and grounded in practical experience, we approach every project with the same care we bring to our own developments
