Buba and I have worked on a number of projects together over the last 10 years. I highly recommend Buba as a person and as an engineer\builder. He is honest, communicative and very very fair in his pricing. I encourage you to talk to Buba when you were considering a building project. Decide for yourself, I highly recommend Barrow construction.
