Message from Mike Barnard
I am excited to tell you about ML Barnard. I started this company with the main goal of helping others and being dedicated to my client's needs. Over twenty five years later, we still focus on helping our clients by providing quality construction and design build services, while staying mindful of important aspects such as project timelines and budgets.
Respect, honesty, integrity, quality and commitment to service are values that are extremely important to me, and therefore this organization. Not only do we enjoy helping local businesses, but we make it a priority to dedicate time and effort serving the community. Some of the local organizations we've had the pleasure of helping include: The Jaycees, YMCA and the Stay in School Fund –– to name a few.
I look forward to building a relationship with your company, and helping with your commercial construction needs.
Sincerely,
Mike Barnard
