What Makes Us Best In Home Building

It was 70 years ago that Gordon and Ethel Barr started their excavation company with a single piece of equipment and a promise to themselves and to their customers to provide excellence in excavation, water, and sewer services.

Fast forward to today, BARR Homes lives up to this dedication to quality with every home we build. Quality homes and customer service is our top priority.

Barr Homes has carved a nice place for itself in the Kingston Homebuilders Community.

What started as a modest operation, building just a handful of homes in our first year, has grown into a thriving business, with approximately 50 homes built annually in Kingston and nearby cities like Amherstview and Loyalist. A major part of that success comes from our attention to the customer’s needs and to our high quality trade partners.

At BARR Homes, we partner with our customers from day one and make sure every detail aligns with their vision. And that’s what transforms a property into a loving home.

Kingston & Amherstview Communities

As a member of the Kingston Home Builders Association, BARR Homes participates in the Annual Parade of Homes, showcasing the talents of local builders. Barr Homes is a major sponsor of the yearly home show.

From supporting children’s hockey and soccer teams to offering local high school students hands-on experience in home building, BARR Homes actively gives back to the community we proudly serve.

We helped build the new Soccerplex on County Road 6 between Amherstview and Odessa. Our focus is on creating communities where people can live, play, and thrive. Our work in Amherstview stands as a testament to this commitment.
