Rob Lampe

I hired Barnes Custom Builders to remodel 2 full bathrooms plus some other updates. Overall, a frustrating experience. At my request, the bathrooms were done one at a time, but it took them about 10 months to finish both. Many days went by without any work and when a sub finally shows up, they usually didn't finish the job or made mistakes. You're paying Barnes to manage the project for you, but they usually don't bother checking the work in detail. A lot of work had to be fixed or redone which added months of delays. You try to call them (Jim, Charlie, Chris), and they just lie about when they'll finish the job or lie about calling me back. Charlie, the owner, kept blaming the lack of progress on me for breaking the job in two and was rude. At the end of the day, the job got done, but it wasn't a positive experience, and I would look at other companies before hiring this one.

Charlie and his staff were very helpful in coming up with designs for our three season room. We enjoyed the design process thoroughly and they definitely understood our vision. Unfortunately when it came time to build, all original promises of being able to work with any budget went out the window. The budget on our room was more than doubled on the final contract. We had already cut major items out of the design too, including going from 4 season to 3, which included cheaper windows and no insulation. If the project was not doable, we would have preferred to have the discussion up front, instead of being sold false hope. Glad we went through the design process, but was really disappointed after all the promises and encouragement, knowing the numbers that they just dropped a contract with a number so far off on it. I will also say the design process was slow for one room. We went to their office 3 times over 3 months and were sending e-mails to check in if there was any progress. I'm sure they would have done great work, but we couldn't trust them to move ahead after seeing them disregard our original budget after claiming it was definitely achievable. We are also still waiting for measurements on the final layout that were never provided.

Barnes Custom Builders were a phenomenal partner in a recent project. Building multiple elements of a home at once can be extremely difficult, but Barnes' clear communication and attention to detail made our progress together seamless. When the project completed, the shared client was very happy and the home looks beautiful. The portfolio that Barnes Custom Builders have assembled is very impressive and speaks to their high quality standards and customer-focused operations. We'd love to share another project with this group!

Thank you Tim! We are always grateful for your assistance and you and B&L Floor-Covering's willingness to go the extra mile for us!

Paula Lynch

I hired Barnes Custom Builders to do extensive renovations on my house. It was the best decision I've ever made. They are professional, always available, their work quality is the best and THEY FINISHED ON TIME. They give your their entire plan before work starts so there are no surprises and they stick to it. They keep you involved in the process and informed every step of the way. Simply the best!

BCB was honest, open , and professional at all phases of the build. We had a very interesting 1920 basement in Providence. Uneven slab, water issues, and an exceptionally difficult ceiling. BCB worked well as a team being up front about a realistic time frame. They also utilize an app to follow the progress on your own. Most importantly the BCB carpenters have great character, and I trusted them around my children.

We highly recommend Barnes Custom Builders to anyone in the Cape Cod area seeking a quality building or remodeling project. Our design firm (located in Philadelphia, PA) has had the opportunity to work with both Charlie & Dave (owners) continuously for quite some time to implement and sharpen the best practices in the remodeling industry. Their process is fantastic and really simplifies things for the client, plus their construction quality is absolutely incredible! If you are seeking a company that will be looking out for your best interest, give them a call.

Project: Completely overhauled my kitchen, including an exterior window wall, plus new wood flooring throughout the living, dining & kitchen. Barnes supervisors were excellent listeners, respectful, and pro-active in offering opinions on ideas offered. Work quality reflects pride in workmanship. Neat and clean too!

Barnes custom builders installed four rooms of prefinished hardwood flooring for me. I was very pleased with their work. The installer did an amazing job in laying out and installing the prefinished wood planks. In the course of this work I had to change the scope of the work twice. Dave Madieros, our foreman accommodated these changes graciously. They also did some shingle and wood beam replacement for me on the outside of my home. I was also very pleased with this work. The workmen were very professional and always cleaned the site at the end of each workday. I would highly recommend Barnes Custom Builders

A front and screen door were removed and replaced with new. It was a small job, but handled efficiently and well done. Everything was well coordinated and communicated. The team was easy to work with. We would hire them again.

Commented: Rug placement in front of fireplace or couch?I would get a larger rug that will encompass the whole space and bring it all together.

Commented: Layout dilemma: Couch arm next to wall? Y/N?I think it's fine. I think lot's of layouts don't allow for a pass through on both sides of a sofa.

Commented: Which tile with my granite?I prefer the subway and would probably go with a larger size, so there is less pattern. You already have a lot going on with the granite. You could also do the subway in a gray tone from the granite.
