"Barker and Canady Custom Homes was highly recommended to us by two life long friends. After out first meeting with Jennifer, Tom, Nick, McKenzie, & Ashley we knew we had chosen the right company to build our dream home. Building our home from Ohio added some challenges, Nick our project manager did an excellent job helping us navigate those challenges. Our home turned out amazing. We feel so blessed to have built our dream home with Barker & Canady, and so pleased to share it with family, friends, and neighbors. We truly appreciate everything they did!"
Al and Brenda Nicolosi
St James Plantation
"We had a very positive experience building with Barker and Canady. Our project manager instilled confidence and made us feel comfortable that the job was getting done properly. Living 1000 miles away from the build, this was very reassuring and the home turned out exactly as we wanted."
Lee and Barbara Jamison
St James Plantation
"After purchasing a model home three years ago, we had the privilege of having the B&C crew build us our custom home. Their build standards, vendors, and subs are all top shelf. While going through the construction process can be stressful and frustrating, I always felt involved, informed, and comfortable that I made the right choice."
Mike Sabatino and Michele Wylen

"Rob, I just wanted to thank you so very much for building us such a beautiful home!!! We have been in our new home for four months and we are absolutely thrilled and so happy. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such good care of us and completing our punch list after closing in such a timely fashion. Your company has treated us so well and we appreciate you all. Fondly, Mike and Michele"
Ray England and Alyssa Anderson
St James Plantation
"Thank you for building us a beautiful home! This house is a dream come true for us. Building from 800 miles away was something we were concerned about, but with Nick as our project manager we were in fabulous hands! We were so pleased with Nick's professionalism throughout this process, he answered our questions and really took care of us. Our next door neighbors also commented on our build process (they were very impressed). McKenzie kept everything so organized, returned emails promptly, and was truly on top of things. Ashley was also wonderful to with with and we appreciated her expertise in picking out things for the home. Major kudos to Ashley for helping us stay in budget. Jennifer and Tom - after our first meeting we knew you were our builder. Jennifer's organization and preparation for the meeting was like nobody else we met with and Tom you were the only builder to walk our lot and make suggestions on the building of our home. After out first meeting in May of 2022, Ray and I knew we were in good hands with Barker and Canady."
John and Jane Donohue
St James Plantation
"From start to finish, the Barker & Canady team was outstanding! Living more than 600 miles away, we relied heavily on our project manager, Todd. He kept us informed throughout the process, always listening carefully to what we were looking to have in this home. In the end, he delivered a home that met all of our desires and expectations. The rest of the team — Tom, McKenzie, Jennifer, and Ashley —was outstanding. Each of the subcontractors were courteous, attentive, and demonstrated great pride in their workmanship. While this is our forever home, if we ever have to build again, we will not hesitate to sign on with Barker & Canady."
Jim and Julia Dawson
St James Plantation
"Although we are truly blessed to be able to build a custom home in beautiful St James, the challenges, especially in today's time, can be overwhelming and daunting to say the least. After several years of becoming acclimated to the area and searching for that perfect builder and floor plan fit we chose Barker and Canady. Zero regrets! Our experience throughout the process was guided and surprisingly fun! Barker and Canady's talented team worked together well to walk us through everything from floor plans, selections, considerations to the final product. In particular, we would like to think Ashley and Nick for sharing their amazing talents, diligence, and patience with us. Barker and Canady made building our dream home a pleasure"

Mike Sabatino & Michele Wylen

"We just finished spending two days with Ashley picking out interior
selections. We just wanted you to know how much we appreciated her expertise and patience. She guided us within our budget and made an overwhelming process very seem less. We appreciate you all and wanted you to know that"
Joe and Susan Addesso
St James Plantation
"We are thrilled with the experience and professionalism that Todd brought to our construction. He was a pleasure to deal with during every phase of our build. Todd is such a valuable resource to Barker&Canady. Bridget was so helpful and knowledgeable. She answered every question we had. She was also extremely patient during all our selection choices. Sometimes too many options are more confusing that just a few. You have such a reputable group of artisans throughout every phase of our build. Every subcontractor did a beautiful job with their craft. We highly recommend Barker&Canady and would gladly build with them again!"
Greg and Diane Schuster

David and Janis Mullaney
St James Plantation
"It has been around 18 years since you built our home, and we still get compliments on it, and we still recommend you to anyone who is looking to build. Even way past warranty, you have always been very helpful when we need to have things done. Dealing with B & C has been one of our best decisions, and the best home building experience we have had!"
Mike and Carol McLinko
St James Plantation
"Beginning with Jennifer, meeting with Tom, working with Rob and completing the process with Bridget; each contributed to our overall satisfaction with our home build. No house construction is easy, but the team at Barker & Canady went above and beyond in completing our dream home. We thank each and every team member."
David and Ardis Stott
River Landing
"It was a joy to work with Todd. He proved to be an exceptionally capable project manager. He coordinated a seemingly endless number of sub-contractors; all while translating the arcane language of construction into something we could understand. He helped guide our decision-making without undue pressure, and he was always prompt in returning out calls or e-mails, and ensuring the subs did the same. He proved to be a superb representative for Barker and Canady which is fortunate to have Todd on their team."
Doug & Wendy Dufresne
St James Plantation
"Rob and the team of sub contractors were great to work with. The response time and the desire to work with us to produce the home we wanted was tremendous. At a time when Covid 19 is disrupting supply chains, Rob and the team did a great job keeping things moving. They told us what they would do and then did it! Cheers to them and we are more than satisfied!"

Nick and Ashley did a fabulous job helping every step of the way! So proud to show off our new home and let everyone know that Barker & Canady are the BEST!"
Tim and Connie Kelly
St. James Plantation
"Our new home is everything we hoped it would be. Rob is an exceptional Project Manager. He was on top of every detail, made excellent suggestions and is extremely easy to work with. All so important when living out of state. Bridget kept the project moving and made sure we were apprised of all budget considerations. The whole B&C team is highly professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. You all show how much you care about building a forever home. Thank you for making this process run so smoothly!"
Eric and Nannette Holmes
St. James Plantation
"Excellent team to work with to build our dream home. The entire process is a smooth operation from design, construction, to all the fine details. Our Project Manager, Nick Woehr provided invaluable guidance and flexibility throughout the building. He definitely made this a custom home."
Bill and Barbara Jarboe
St James Plantation
"We chose B&C to build our new home at St James based on their excellent reputation and reviews, seeing the beautiful Rockport Model and all it's fine details and meeting with all the good people in this company that know how to do all of this so well. One year later, we're living in the best home we could imagine - having been guided through multiple choices, incorporating some idea of our own, having the project managed expertly and having been kept very well informed throughout. It's a big undertaking but B&C knows how to do it all - we had all the help we needed for our home even though we lived 700 miles away. Lastly, we'd like to add that working with such good, competent people is something that is often hard to find in these modern times. We couldn't recommend them more highly - Thank you Tom, Nick, Jennifer, Ashley & Bridget!
Mark and Margaret Bostic
St James Plantation
"We are very pleased with our home building experience with Barker and Canady. Tom and Jennifer were instrumental at the outset during the design phase to understand the vision for our dream home, while making many helpful suggestions as the plans were being finalized. Tom continued to be involved at key milestones during the construction. Rob, our Project Manager was a pleasure to work with and took the time to carefully explain all of the decisions required by us. Ashley was valuable, with the utmost patience in helping us make the selections that transformed the house into our dream home. Overall, the Barker and Canady team was very supportive, with timely responses during the building of our home."
Steve and Kathy Gebo
St. James Plantation
"We're thrilled with our Barker & Canady home. We got great help and advice in designing our home from Jennifer, who was very responsive to all our questions. Our Project Manager, Todd Lewis, kept our house moving forward to completion. He was not only very knowledgeable & competent, but friendly and responsive. We enjoyed working with all their vendors who were willing to give their time to help us realize our dream. We had a great experience and strongly recommend Barker and Canady!"
Tom and Susan McCormick
St James Plantation
"We could not be more pleased with the whole experience of Barker & Canady's team - Tom Canady, Jennifer Kelly, Ashley Levesque, Bridget DelMese and Todd Lewis our Project Manager. The knowledge, professionalism and quality we received was phenomenal. Thank you!"
Jim and Debbie Armstrong
St. James Plantation
"Overall Experience was excellent! House was delivered on time and as designed. Project Manager, Nick Woehr was a true professional, knowledgeable, experienced, responsive and easy to work with at all times"
Dave and Patty Voigt
St. James Plantation
"We are extremely proud of our new home and pleased with all aspects of the design and build by Barker and Canady Custom Homes. Prior to choosing B&C we researched numerous floor plans and met with other builders in St. James Plantation. We chose Barker and Canady because they have an excellent reputation and both Tom Canady and Jennifer Kelly gave the time to discuss all aspects of the process. We felt their floor plans and the custom options they offered gave us everything we were looking for and we knew after talking with them that they were the home builder for us. Throughout the process Rob Canady, our Project Manager, provided updates on the status of the build. Along the build process, there were a couple changes that were made that improved the overall design and added additional quality to our home. Rob provided us with options on these changes and honest recommendations based on the numerous years of experience of his company, quality contacts, and sub-contractors that B&C maintains. Furthermore, the whole Barker and Canady team including Bridget, was always available to talk with us when and if we had any questions. Overall, we highly recommend B&C to anyone interested in building your dream custom home!"
Jerry and Maryann Derck
St James Plantation
"We indeed feel privileged and blessed that you all built our home. Often long planned and anticipated projects, as well as promises of providers, don't quite 'live up to the hype.' This is not the case in your building our home. The end result has exceeded our already high expectations and we love the home you built for us. The same observation applies to our relationship with you all - you have been so responsive to issues and have dealt with us with a level of integrity and a desire to go beyond the expected. We continue to 'sing your praises' to all and are so appreciative of your efforts on you behalf!"
Bob and Lila Lenz

My experience with B & C were very positive. Todd, our project manager was always trying to help us save money and suggesting materials that would make our living more comfortable. I would highly recommend them to build your dream home!

Ed and Patti Grimes
St James Plantation
"We love our home! We are so happy we chose Barker and Canady to build our dream home, they made everything from the planning of meetings with the B&C team; Tom, Jennifer, Bridget, Ashley, Haley and especially Todd to the actual construction. The attention to detail in the house and the quick responses to our inquiries since we were building from New Jersey gave us peace of mind. We checked a number of builders but as soon as we met B&C team we had a good feeling and we are so glad we went with this wonderful team.
Our home was built in between two existing homes and when it was completed it looked like it had always been there. We have gotten such compliments on it. People throughout the Reserve and as far as Regency Crossing have told us our home has such "Curb Appeal". This home and the experience has turned out to be everything we wanted and asked for.
Barker and Canady and Todd Lewis were such a pleasure to work with. They did a great job, especially the last two weeks in getting our house done in time. There was a lot of effort trying to get us in before Christmas so we could spend time in our new home with our only son from Arizona. This meant so much to us, more than words can say. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this happen! Special "Kudos" to Todd and all the contractors for getting us into this beautiful home!"
Joe and Susan Ferrera

"Our first contact with Barker and Canady was Bridget who was knowledgeable, professional and great to deal with throughout the process. Nick, our Project Manager was excellent! He was also extremely knowledgeable, patient, a great communicator and an extremely hard worker. Overall, this was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend Barker & Canady!"

Sincerely,
David and Janis Mullaney
Tony and Sheri Rizzo
St James Plantation
"Barker and Canady likes to build things...let's start with TRUST. My wife and I never built a house from ground up, never mind from a long distance (MA). We figured with 35 years in business Barker and Canady would: have experienced both good and the bad times, which results in financial stability and loyal subs; have the experience on how to handle the challenges of building a new house; have a succession plan should the unforeseen happen with any principals.
Well we could not be happier and the building process could not have been easier. Nick Woehr, Project Manager made the process easy and painless and provided input when requested. Bridget, Office Manager kept us abreast of all overages so we knew where we stood financially at all times. We love our new home, we appreciated the process and want to say a huge THANK YOU to the Barker and Canady team for providing us such a beautiful home!"
Jim and Jo-Ann Alford
St. James Plantation
"Building with Barker and Canady was an absolute pleasure! We got everything we asked for in our new home and stayed within budget. The interior selection meetings, the quality of workmanship and the on-time schedule were remarkable. Nick Woehr is an exceptional Project Manager who is cost conscious and kept us informed of every detail, all the while we lived in Florida during construction. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you!"
Leslie and Rosemary Burrage

"We love our new home! Building from afar was a challenge but the liaison between Barker and Canady was excellent. The standard of workmanship was very high with nice detail. We would highly recommend Barker and Canady!"

Richard Fenimore and Libby Bolster
St. James Plantation
"From the top down, our building experience with B&C was absolutely a pleasure. Tom Canady and Jennifer were helpful and creative from the very beginning, and the rest of the staff, including their longtime quality subs, continued to help bring our home in on budget throughout every step in the process. Thank you Tom, Jennifer, Rob, Bridget and all of the Barker & Canady team for building us a wonderful quality home that we love!"
Sarah Gray Lamm and Patti Caldwell
Forest Hills, Wilmington
"Barker and Canady Custom Homes is a quality and reputable company. They do what they promise with a friendly, informative attitude. Their attention to detail and money saving suggestions were most appreciated during my building experience. From start to finish, my house was well cared for an rarely was there an idle day on the job. The schedule was tight and on time. The follow up after the house closed has been good and their responsiveness to my requests are timely. I would absolute recommend Barker and Canady if you are considering a quality built home in the Wilmington Area."
Ed and Marion Schloemer
Landfall
"In working with Barker and Canady to build our "forever" home in 2014, we found individuals who took a personal interest in making sure we were comfortable and happy with the myriad of choices that needed to be made during the process. Although we were a little concerned about undertaking this project "long distance" from NJ, Rob and the entire Barker Canady team were a pleasure to work with and took extra time and effort to help us feel confident in our decision to work with them. Our new custom home is truly a reflection of what we had dreamed for our family's enjoyment and comfort, and the quality of construction is spot on!"
Yvonne Scheffer
St. James Plantation
"While I had reservations to watch the building process from afar, the Barker and Canady team has a wonderful process in place that was truly amazing. Everyone had their specific level of expertise from the sales part with Tom and Jennifer, Nick who was assigned as the project manager, Ashley was there to assist with deciding all the right selections, and Bridget and Phil to keep us straight back in the office. Nick kept me informed, sent many pictures of the progress, always answered emails and phone calls promptly, knew or would find out the answers to all my questions....in my book he is all about doing a quality, first class job!
At the first sales meeting I showed Tom and Jennifer a picture of a Tuscan door with the comment that I would like the open inviting Tuscan elevation and asked if they could build something of this nature. I also found a beautiful bathroom with a sunken tub. Their answer to those two criteria was a resounding "Yes". In the end, the house did not just meet the two big criteria but it exceeded all my expectations. Everyday when I walk through the house, I marvel at the attention to detail but also the craftsmanship that reflects the Barker and Canady Homes of Distinction!"
Marcus and Patti Vandevliet
St. James Plantation
"We can't say enough about how much we love our new home. Tom, Jennifer and especially Todd were an absolute joy to work with. Everyone in the company is professional, friendly, and take such pride in what they do. All of the subs were so impressive! Everyone one of them take such pride in their craft. They all worked on our home with such care and professionalism as if it were their own. We would do it all over again except this house is already perfect!"
Doug and Tootie Witzell

Tom, Nick, Phil and Bridget provided outstanding support & guidance. Throughout the entire process and their professionalism and focus on customer satisfaction was greatly appreciated. Special kudos to Nick for his patience and keeping us on task. We are proud to be part of the Barker & Canady Family of quality homes."
Steve and Maribeth Brocker
St James Plantation
"Working with Barker and Canady was a positive experience from start to finish. Tom, Jennifer and Nick listened to us and asked a lot of questions. The result is the beautiful home we always hoped it would be. We couldn't be more pleased!"
David and Ardis Stott
River Landing
"Although Barker & Canady turned over the keys to our new home on January, 29, 2016, our relationship with them began 6 years earlier, Planning for our retirement eventually led us to River Landing where we attended several Builder Showcase events. We visited all the builders open houses, but found ourselves returning to the Barker and Canady offerings. Tom and Jennifer understood that we were "just looking" at the time, and never pressured us to commit to their services. Instead, in addition to detailing how they differed from other builders, they also put us in touch with occupants of newly completed, as well as more established Barker & Canady homes. These owners had beautiful homes and they uniformly had very high levels of satisfaction with their Barker and Canady experience. This was very important for us, especially given that the experience of building our previous home in northern Virginia was slightly "tainted" due to a less than responsive builder. Our experience with Barker and Canady has been the polar opposite. Our Project Manager, Todd was detail oriented and exceptionally communicative. His professionalism and customer care seems to be representative of all the Barker and Canady staff with whom we worked. They all worked well with us to deliver a superior product, on time. on budget and one with which we are truly satisfied."
Tim and Alice Hogan
St James Plantation
"Overall, a much better than expected experience. B&C really worked well as a team to meet our needs. Not being here during the build was concerning, but Rob communicated well and the house came in ahead of schedule! A real pleasant surprise. The house is a dream come true!"
Dennis and Jayne Kaine
St. James Plantation
"It is hard to write a review/quote that would cover everyone and everything. We were happy and comfortable from beginning to end. The first and best decision we made was asking Barker and Canady to build our house. We have been coming to St James for almost 20 years and have watched a lot of houses being built. We went to look at some houses while down on vacation ~there was no time frame in mind. We just though we would get some ideas. We fell in love with a Barker and Canady house. We met Jennifer ~she was so kind and knowledgeable. We left that day knowing we found our builders.
We were a little concerned about building a house in NC while living in NJ. Jennifer said it was something they were familiar with and was able to explain the process in such a clear and easy detail that we felt ready to go. Everything Jennifer explained and described came true.
We had our first construction meeting at the office with Tom Canady. Todd Lewis, Jennifer Kelly, and met Bridget DelMese too. What a great felling that everyone stays involved in the process from start to finish. Everything was broken down into simple steps. I can't repeat enough how we always felt like everyone was taking care of us and making the process fun and manageable. We were given the services of Ashley Levesque ~ What a great help. She knows her stuff and has the ability to see things from the smallest description and make everything work. She would point me in a direction after we spoke and just made our choices so easy and again...fun.
Todd Lewis is just outstanding. He built 2 different houses, side by side at the same time and they both came out beautiful! He had great ideas at every phase that made the house perfect. What a pleasure to work with. Do they have an Emmy or Oscar for Project Managers? He should get it- He always kept us in the loop and just made out experience so enjoyable.
The final product is beyond our dreams. The house is beautiful! We cant thank you enough for building us our magnificent home. We would be more than happy to talk to anyone that wants to know anything about building a house with Barker and Canady. No matter how much I write, it will never be enough to say how happy we are and how wonderful the people of Barker and Canady are."
Vinny and Linda D’Annunzio
St. James Plantation
"The experience we had with dealing with Barker and Canady was truly one of the best decisions I ever made in my life. When we first met Tom and Jennifer, Linda and I felt comfortable with choosing B&C to build our dream house. This plan started 17 years ago for us when we purchased the property in St James dreaming of building a retirement home. Barker and Canady made it all come true with the help of their unbelievable staff - Ashley helping us pick out everything for the house to Todd, Project Manager of the year who built two homes at the same time. One would never want to look further than Barker and Canady to build their home. Once again we want to thank Tom and the whole staff for a wonderful experience!"

Tom and Jennifer assured us there would be no problem being over 600 miles away - and to their word and with the leadership of Todd it was smooth and comfortable process. Their work is outstanding from pushing the dirt to final completion. Our home is better than what we could have dreamed for."
Gordon and Susie Heitmuller

Richard and Paula Belch
St James Plantation
"We are very pleased with our new home. Building a home from a long distance is a daunting task. Rob Canady, our Project Manager made that task seamless. We were updated on progress and questions answered as they arose in a timely manner with pictures, texts, emails and phone calls. The quality of the construction was evident from start to finish. The workers were polite and respectful. We are glad we chose Barker and Canady to build our dream home and would certainly recommend them to others."
Sam Falvo and Kathy Larsen
St. James Plantation
"We are more than happy with our choice of Barker and Canady to build our home. We spoke with 6 builders before going with B&C. They were easy to deal with and never felt any pressure during construction. We would highly recommend Barker and Canady to anyone considering building a new home."
Carlos and Kathy Mejia
St. James Plantation
"We felt from the very beginning that we chose the right builder. When we told people we were building long distance, they told us we were crazy and it would be a nightmare. Not so - Barker & Canady made it easy. Todd Lewis, our Project Manager, made it so and was a dream to work with. Everytime we meet new owners we tell them Barker & Canady is the way to go."
Ralph and Carolyn O’Brien

"We have been working with Barker & Canady on our beautiful custom home and I can't begin to express how helpful they've all been throughout the entire process from picking out our architect and engineers to the most wonderful in house interior designer and all the details in between. They've made sure that we're using the best materials for our style home and for our location and have been great about working with our custom features that we've added along the way. We have about two more months before we move into our new home and are so very excited with the work that's been done so far. We've loved watching our dream house become a beautiful reality through the wonderful work of everyone at Barker and Canady!"
Jeff and Meridith Muehleib
St. James Plantation
"We had never built a custom home and had a very positive experience with Barker and Canady. They build a quality home using expert and experienced contractors, high grade materials, and have excellent managers and staff. Our Project Manager Nick, along with all staff, kept us informed throughout the process and were extremely responsive to questions and concerns. They have remained responsive after construction was completed. They also provided honest answers based on their experience which we found very helpful during planning and construction. We would highly recommend Barker & Canady to any potential homeowners and welcome customers to visit our home."

Fran McGaughey
St. James Plantation
"Barker and Canady are an exceptional organization to work with. During my construction, my husband was diagnosed with ALS. We asked B&C to get us in sooner than projected in order to get my husband in the house before he died. They cut the schedule by 39 days- a Hurculean Effort!"

Fred and Sue Yates
St. James Plantation
"Barker and Canady is, in our opinion, the ONLY builder to go with! This was our first experience in building a home and the entire B&C team made this such a fun adventure! From the moment we met Jennifer and Tom, we felt assured that our home would be built by a team of professionals. The vendors we met with always gave us several choices regarding our budget. Ashley's expertise in design and her eye for color helped us create the coastal look we wanted. And Nick? Well we could not have asked for a better project manager. Professional, honest, knowledgeable, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound! But seriously, Nick always took the time to answer the most trivial questions and alert us to anything we might want to adjust. THANK YOU, Barker and Canady. We love our new home!"

"Barker & Canady were super to work with. Their level of experience, wisdom, and attention to details takes this builders product from good to great! It was a joy to work with a team where excellent customer service and quality product is the cornerstone of their project execution. I trust this company to perform above any other custom builder in their market. Excellent work to B&C and their subs ~ Job Well Done!"

"If you're interested in reliability, competence, and quality, you will want a Barker and Canady home too! Thank you for creating our dream! Every look or feature we wanted Tom and Nick delivered. The house is amazing!"

"Barker & Canady built our home in Compass Pointe this year and we moved in last month. Everything went much more smoothly than we expected. Nick, our construction manager, guided us all the way and gave us great suggestions on design features and cost saving ideas. Tom Canady gave it his personal attention. The office personnel are superb, and the vendors were all top notch professionals. Nick immediately took care of the few minor things we saw during our final walk-through. We have received several complements about our home, including, "It's the most beautiful house in the neighborhood." We definitely chose the right builder."

"Barker and Canady Custom Homes is a first class professional organization. Having a house built from long distance was thought to be a daunting task. Nothing could have been further from the truth. It was an exciting and problem free experience. Not only do I have a beautiful new home but I have some wonderful new friends.
Every step of the process was explained and all expectations were completely fulfilled. Everyone that was involved (office personnel and workers alike) were knowledgeable, made recommendations and were willing to help in anyway. The home reflects their quality workmanship and in-depth knowledge in building first class home.
I can't say enough good things about Tom and Todd. They are meticulous to detail and very conscientious to the homeowner's needs. They are very personable and understanding. I knew immediately after meeting them that I was in good hands.
Without any hesitation, I would recommend Barker and Canady to any perspective homebuyer."

"When we sat down to write evaluation, we thought of all the reviews we'd read before (and after) making our decision to use B&C as our builder. Although we feel it's been said before, there are 5 points we think are worth reiterating:
- Everyone at B&C is a pleasure to work with; they make you feel like you're part of the "their" family. While we didn't build a "million-dollar" home, we were never treated differently.
- We felt confident using B&C even though we were 500 miles away from the building process.
- As promised, B&C built within the 6 month time-frame - no cost or time overruns.
- All contractors/Subs used did a top notch job, ensuring a smooth process. Also, our home-site was clean throughout that time.
- Finally, and most importantly, was the level the level of trust we had in B&C. They did what they said they would do and worked with even when we ran into delays selling our home in NJ.
People say building a custom home is scary and a stressful process, but not when you choose Barker and Canady to build your dream home!"

"We could not be happier with our new home! Nick, Project Manager, is the best in every way! We are so pleased with everything that there is really nothing we would change. Everything is exactly what we expected or better. We would and have recommended Barker and Canady to anyone. Thank you very much!"
