Fantastic team from beginning to end!

We had a great experience using BB&R building an addition to our home, hardscape patio, and front walkway entrance.

We would highly recommend them! Excellent job!

We recently completed our renovation with the help of Kevin and Jane and their incredible staff! Our project was not simple but BB&R’s team and expertise always put us at ease. We were confident in the work and professionalism every step of the way! Communication and responsiveness was amazing- even if it wasn’t what I wanted to hear- they always had a solution.

We have a beautiful and functional kitchen that we can create wonderful memories in for years to come!

Barnes Building brought expertise in both design and construction to our project. They were honest about costs and the final project is beautiful. Once demolition began, the project moved forward quickly.

We already have recommended BB&R to many people (including our next door neighbors). We were so impressed by the professionalism that BB&R exhibited. We are already planning our next project and will absolutely choose BB&R again!

They were really easy and efficient to work with. They clearly understood what we were looking to achieve and executed it in a timely manner.

Yes, whenever I asked a question or had a concern, Kevin would take care of what I was asking about. Jane worked with me to get the right design and she was willing to help however she could.

Very prosessional.

Overall experience and quality of the work was excellent.

The workers were extremely friendly and approachable.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Areas Of Satisfaction - The communication throughout the whole project was wonderful. The project manager used tools to make the process really simple and easy. The quality of work and the team was amazing! Ryan was great as well. He was there each week with updates.

Recognized Excellence - Ryan, he was great!

Remodeling Concerns

Remodeling Concerns - I had concerns that the budget would get out of control and that the end result wouldn't be what we had expected. All of my concerns were unfounded because of how Kevin presents all the budget scenarios upfront and keeps you updated. All of the visual tools used to show the project updates through the process were really wonderful!

Professional & Organized

Professional & Organized - The professionalism of Kevin and his team throughout the project was noteworthy. Even when things weren't going 100% as planned they were always pleasant to deal with and quick to answer questions or concerns.

Schedule

Schedule - The project timeline went fairly far off track due to a tile quality issue that snowballed the timeline of subsequent sub-contractors. Kevin communicated effectively throughout.

Budget

Budget - There was a slight overage that was unexpected. Kevin was reasonable in coming to a fair resolution.

Construction Quality

Construction Quality - Everything is beautiful and solid. My father and 3 brothers are all contractors or in the building trades. They were all impressed with the quality and are often not quick with a complement -- this says a lot!

Communication

Trust

Trust - They have been nothing but responsive and professional. I do not have any concerns in this area.

Overall Experience

Overall Experience - Customer service is clearly where BB&R excel. Kevin, Jane, Ryan and the rest of his team were a pleasure to work with. Kevin and Jane made the design process enjoyable. They came up with some elegant solutions and ideas that we definitely would not have come up with on our own. I am extremely detail oriented and it was great to work with a team that "got" this and went beyond my expectations. Kevin and Jane were both easy to reach and quick to respond -- always in a professional and pleasant manner.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Areas Of Satisfaction - Kevin and his team did a beautiful job with our project and were excellent with communication throughout the project.

Additionally, Kevin and his team were very responsive, professional and fair when resolving issues as they arose.

Remodeling Concerns

Remodeling Concerns - The concern was just that it was a big spend and they just made the process so easy. We didn't have to follow up with anything. We just talked to Kevin about what we needed and he and his team took control. We really didn't have to worry about it and I really appreciate that. I think my Moms biggest concern was the fact that you would have to try to manage the individual pieces and that really didn't occur at all.
