I live in a building comprised of 5 flats. We needed some work done to the rear of the building which included urgent repairs to the underside of the roof, repointing work, gutter repairs, window redecoration and other minor items. I found K Barnard easy to deal with, very responsive, competitively priced and the quality of the workmanship was excellent. I would happily recommend them and have since used them again for some minor interior decoration work. Overall, very pleased.

Chimney slab replacement and repointing

We found Keith and his team to be professional, reliable and thorough overall (from initial inspection to job completion). We had a penetration damp problem due to a leaky chimney; we had visits from numerous builders and received a wide range of quotes - but in the end we found Keith's quote to be the most fair (also, he did not deviate from his initial estimate). He and his team were polite and well-mannered, and kept us informed of their progress throughout (complete with photographic evidence). We asked about an additional job (repointing and waterproofing a 2nd chimney), and he was able to carry it out the following day, at what I thought was a very reasonable extra cost. They were also careful inside the property (e.g. placing carpet protector where necessary). They tidied up well at the end of the job.

Outdoor step replacement

The step outside back door was breaching the damp proof course. Keith understood the problem and gave excellent advice to remedy the issues correctly rather than recommending a bodged solution. He arrived as promised, neatly removed the slabs and bricks, placed a waterproof membrane and sealed the edges with bitumen. He also pointed out that there were no air bricks in the outside wall and recommended placing some. His work was neat, efficient and tidy on completion. Excellent job done correctly first time without fuss. Thoroughly recommended.

Keith and his team did a fantastic job on repairing our roof and fitting in two skylights, one of which was extremely awkward, and installing a new pvc window. They were really honest about the work that needed to done compared to some of the other quotes that we had had. The work was finished to a really high standard and you could see that they took a lot of pride in what they did. Would definitely recommend them.

Keith and his colleague bricked up and plastered a hole left in my living room wall after a redundant gas fire had been removed. He was professional and competent and completed the job at short notice before my new carpets were fitted. Would use the firm again.

Keith and team came back to do the rest of the work for us, as posted in March '15. We had booked them to: repoint the flank and back walls of the house, repair an alarming 4-inch bulge in the chimney-stack brickwork, renew the fascia boards, renew the guttering, paint the facade and external woodwork, reconstruct the roof of the side passageway, repair vent pipes, and make the forecourt brick wall. We are very pleased with the final result. As noted by Robert of Ladywell in July'15, one has to 'wait a while at times as good traders are much sought after', and the work may take a bit longer than predicted, which is worth it if the job is done right first time. Costs stayed within the reasonable budget. Inevitably in a multiple project, unforeseen opportunistic tasks, like capping the chimneys, become unmasked en route, which were flexibly adopted by Keith and his team, and modestly priced. The workmanship is excellent. The team were totally trustworthy, respected our property, including minding it when we were both out at work. The photos show the repair of the chimney stack, with the repointing done in lime and mortar (in old style) which allows the house to 'breathe'. The rest of the repointing was long and tough, especially in the awkward area over the conservatory, and looks great. The new fascia boards and guttering work well, having been put to the test with recent wet and very windy weather. Highly recommended.

Keith re-built our front brick fence including coping stones and pier caps. He and his team have done a first-rate job, it looks superb. They are a very nice team to have around too. I'm getting them back to do some more building work in the back. Definitely recommended.

Replacing weather damaged bricks, repointing
Customer Service

Many of the bricks on the front of my house were weather damaged, blown and flaking (75-100). . and needed careful colour matching. The facade needed repointing and the coping stones on the walls separating my tiled roof from the neighbour's, needed replacing. Keith and his team successfully achieved these objectives within a very competitive price; they found the exact match of the bricks some way out of London which was key to a good job, and found a firm that could cast copies of the original coping stone profiles, and installed them efficiently. They found a firm to put a new bitumen and lead roof capping over the bay, and all in all, were nice people to work with and hard working. I was not aware of how much dust grinding the original pointing out would generate. Luckily Keith's team had requested plastic sheeting on the scaffold to save the street, but to any who go down this route, I strongly recommend sealing your windows from inside with a thick polythene and masking tape, as it can be fairly dusty.
