Barnes Construction

We purchased a home on the west side knowing there were major remodels that were done without permit. So we began the year long process of closing them with the help of our amazing architect drafting team, Wendi Lau at All Kinds Drafting who recommended Kimo as a super dependable, respected contractor, fully licensed and who really cares about the community and that's reflected in his work. As part of the after the fact permit process we had to install a septic tank where the ground was all coral bed. Kimo's team worked hard, completing this MAJOR project in exactly 2 weeks as promised and within budget, which was super reasonable price for the job. When we finally received DPP clearance and permits were issued, Kimo worked with us at every step to get licensed electricians and plumbers in right away to begin work to bring the house to code. He clearly has long time relationships and is well respected. The plumbers and electricians were prompt and reasonably priced. Our permits were successfully closed after 1 year of working with Kimo at every step of the way. We 100% trust Kimo and could not recommend him more. We will be working him anytime we need a GC in the future!

Barnes Construction/Remodeling has done a number of jobs at our home and my daughter's home. We are ALWAYS happy with the work. They are very reliable, showing up for work exactly when they say they would be there and complete the work in a very timely and conscientious manner. We have had them install replacement windows and are thrilled with the quality of both the product and the installation. We will continue to use Barnes and to recommend them. 1-2-24 Update to my original review: Since the original review, we have had Barnes do two bathroom remodeling projects one in 2021 and one in late 2023. Again, Barnes did superior work. Communications were great and the attention to detail was excellent (including redoing a small amount of work that Barnes themselves pointed out to us as not being up to their standards). I highly recommend Barnes for projects such as these and I will continue to ask them to complete other projects for us.

Bob Barnes and his amazing crew did an absolutely fantastic job on my roof. They tore off the old shingles and underlayment, replaced damaged decking, opened up the top sheathing a bit more so the ridge vents could perform properly, and installed an entirely new roof system in only a day and a half. The crew did their utmost to protect my yard from being damaged by the tear-off and installation by laying tarps down while the work was being performed. When all was done, they meticulously cleaned everything up. I am extremely pleased with my new roof system (underlayment, ice/water dam, shingles, ridge vents, caps, etc.), and am so glad that Bob Barnes and his crew provided their wonderfully rare expertise at such a fair price and at such speed. Thank you, gentlemen!

My mom needed new shingles on her garage, that was built in 1995 and still had the original roof. She got an estimate from another company, but decided to also get one from Barnes Construction. They came out, measured and took notes before giving us the estimate. Their estimate beat out their competition and they got the job. They came out when they said they would start the job and were always professional. They did a great job on the roof, all while being willing to answer any questions asked during the process. At the end of the night, the crew cleaned up everything, making it hard to tell there was ever a crew there. This was a real job well done. Would definitely use them again and give their name to anyone in need of their services.

Barnes Construction, led by Kimo did a remarkable renovation to my 1970’s era house bringing it up to 2020's standards on budget and on schedule. The result of their impeccable workmanship is the seamlessness of the final perfect product, you cannot tell where the renovation stopped or started. Kimo’s crew, especially Wayne, are most highly skilled, seasoned, friendly and creative “outside the box” thinkers during both the design/engineering and construction stages. I highly recommend Kimo and his outstanding crew for the most complicated (like my reno) to simple renovations and construction. If you’re looking for timeless quality, Kimo and his team are the very best.
