**★★★★★ — HU-598673753, July 2021**

> Several years ago B&J designed and constructed a lovely sunroom for me.  Since then there have been a few minor problems with some of the components, especially the mechanical and electrical controls of the skylights .  B&J has handled these issues promptly and very professionally.  I can highly recommend their commitment to support their work after initial job completion and their efforts to ensure customer satisfaction.

**★★★★★ — HU-404237896, June 2021**

> I found out about Barron & Jacobs from walking around downtown Northampton! I told my husband about them and I guess after some vetting online he was convinced to do some projects he wanted to have accomplished. More recent ones were fixing a hole in a porch roof(very thoroughly, expertly and nicely done AND they cleaned up later(!),
> installing an elevator(including decorative flooring at the base), painting the whole house last Summer, and building a porch into a beautiful 3 season space(which I happily decorate in Winter).
>
> My husband was a perfectionist and sometimes in NY he’d send something back if it was a fraction of an inch off. I’d be like, “Can we please stop torturing this guy?” but Barron & Jacobs kept up with him every step of the way. They take pride in their craftsmanship for its own sake and theirs is really on the level of Art, in my opinion. Plus, if they don’t know how to do something they do know how to recommend the best person or people for the job. They’ve helped me out with some expert recommendations! Thank you whole heartedly!
> With Barron & Jacobs: It’s worth it and done.

**★★★★★ — celinechabot, Oct. 2017**

> From design to completion, problems solving, availability and good communications: employees and project managers always kept us informed.
>
> Chris Jacobs, owner, was always timely planning subcontractors and moved with all changes required along the whole 16 weeks (almost).
>
> I surely will recommend this Firm to friends if occasion applies.
>
> Robert and Céline Hall.

**★★★★★ — Karen Spindel, Oct. 2014**

> Excellent service throughout the entire several month long remodel process when although both the kitchen and bathroom were totally remodeled it was done in such a way that I could remain im=n my home.
> I was able to remain in my and an excellent result.  I now have exactly the condo I wanted when we began.

**Comment from Barron & Jacobs:**

> Thank you Karen! It was a pleasure working with you, and we're so glad you are happy with your home.

  - Description: This kitchen got a dramatic makeover without changing the footprint much, thanks to a sweeping new island. The fridge and wall ovens moved to a different wall, and the island houses a large gas range and wine fridge, as well as a bar-height eating area. To open up the space, the wall between the kitchen and dining room was cut down. New flooring, cabinets, counters, appliances, backsplash, and lighting completed the transformation.

## Community Q&A

**Q: What is the tree to the left with pink flowers?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the tree to the left with pink flowers?

A: Hi,  that tree is actually a PeeGee (paniculata) hydrangea.  It's a big, old established plant, and we are very grateful for it's beautiful blooms every summer.

**Q: Can you tell me the dimensions of the family room addition? Thanks!** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi Colleen, this addition is 16' x 16'.

**Q: Hydrangea?  Can it be??** *(in Photo Questions)*

Love the pink flowers that are arching at the side of the building.  What is it and how did you grow it like that?

A: Hi Delphine!  Yep, it's a hydrangea - a PeeGee (paniculata) hydrangea.  They grow big, and are very tolerant of pruning into shapes.  We were very fortunate to have these big established plants when we bought the house 8 years ago (there are others on the far side of the driveway), and have had to do very minimal pruning and upkeep to keep them looking gorgeous.

**Q: What is the brand of the table?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: I'm sorry, I don't know the brand of the table.  It was selected directly by the homeowner.
