We have been using H E Barnes for our Fixed Wire Inspections, PAT Testing program, light tube changes and reactive emergencies on our stores for over 15 years. Alongside this, H E Barnes refit shops across the country, which include any franchised additional services used by Blakemore Retail within the building.

I have always found both engineers on site and office staff to be highly professional and competent. I would have no hesitation in recommending H E Barnes as the one stop shop contractor.

H E Barnes have successfully completed a number of projects for me at the University of Sheffield and a food production facility in West Yorkshire,
each with demanding and challenging requirements.

I would consider them to be competent in project delivery, health and safety awareness and project management.

I would like to express my thanks to both Richard and Darren and their teams for the amazing job they did with the alterations in the new Meat and Fish market.

They were given the task of a multitude of changes to the units to be undertaken in a very short space of time. Not only did they deliver these on time they did so with good grace, and kept the traders and ourselves informed throughout the process, supporting us to successfully open the market on time.

I would formally like to record my thanks to H E Barnes and your team in the collaborative way in which the above project was run.

Without this approach the project would not have been concluded in such a successful manner and your contribution would not have been
independently recognised as it has been by SCC.

When quoting for works H E Barnes will always provide a highly competitive, excellent value for money and reasonable cost, with a clear delivery plan which they will follow through to the closure of the works.

They are honest about the costings and requirements and will always ensure they provide a full narrative of what you require, exactly how that is broken down, and ensure they provide realistic costing against the specification.

As a company, I wish all our contractors were as professional, provided such excellent service and had such a high level of reliability as the support we receive from H E Barnes.

I would highly recommend H E Barnes for any M&E works, as a superb, exceptionally customer focused provider of service.

It was a pleasure to work with H E Barnes who were very quick to bring their knowledge to the project and become a fully integrated part of the team. Their intelligent proposals, attention to detail and constructive solution-finding approach was really appreciated.

Carrying this through to the works on site, we were able to realise a scheme with exposed servicing and a high level of coordination with structural elements, and achieve a building that we hope has exceeded our client’s aesthetic and functional expectations.

We use H E Barnes for general electrical work, emergency calls and fire systems testing. They are responsive to our requirements and provide a good all round friendly efficient service.

A quick email to place on record our thanks for the work your team have put into the Met Centre. Richard and Darren have performed a minor miracle with our team in achieving the handover of the market. Their client friendly approach and ability to adapt to (constant) change is exactly what was required on the contract to keep things moving, particularly in the absence of a robust design. It should place us all in a good position with regards to phase 2.

I just want to say a huge thank you for the work that your team(s) have done in getting the boiler in on time for us. Your guys have been brilliant and very accommodating; especially the first week or so when we were decommissioning a building and moving the service into Central Library. It was chaotic to say the least in the loading bay area! I have to say that Ryan is a very personable, competent and professional guy who has been great with us and kept us informed along the way and it’s good he can continue to keep in touch should we have any issues. Once again thank you for your efficient and professional service.

H E Barnes are a valued MEP supply chain partner to Willmott Dixon. Having recently won our Better Together partner of the year 2019 award. This award yet again demonstrates H E Barnes dedication throughout the whole process of a project. I certainly cannot recommend H E Barnes and the personnel who are employed within this business enough. Exceptional.

We at Hillsborough Sports Arena would highly recommend H E Barnes. In all of our many dealings with this company we have not only been impressed with their professional service and quality of work but also with how supportive, prompt and thorough they are. Unlike other suppliers we have used H E Barnes have given us a very friendly and personal service which hasn’t gone unnoticed and as a result we shall continue to build our relations with them
