The bathroom guys your neighbors already trust.
Thirty years of remodels and repairs in Wayne County, from the family that answers its own phone. Tell us what your house needs and we’ll tell you exactly how we’d build it.
One crew for the whole house.
Work order · six trades · one number
If it’s not on this list, call anyway. After thirty years there isn’t much in a house we haven’t fixed.
Bathroom remodels
Full gut-and-rebuild baths, designed with you and built without a single subcontractor. The specialty, thirty years running.
How we quote →Tub-to-shower conversions
Walk-in showers, safety tubs out, done in days. The same conversion the big-box stores sell. We’re the crew that installs them.
The two builds →Plumbing
Repairs, fixtures, water heaters, the leak that’s been on the list all winter.
What we fix →Electrical
Fixtures, outlets, fans, panels tidied: the electrical side of every remodel, and the small jobs between.
What we wire →Appliance repair & install
Dishwashers, disposals, washers and dryers, installed right so they don’t leak into your new floor.
Fix or replace →Handyman work
Doors, drywall, decks, the honey-do list. Save it up; one trip clears the whole thing.
The whole list →No salesman. No mystery. A handshake, in writing.
A remodel shouldn’t start with a pitch at your kitchen table. Ours starts with a written, itemized estimate: what we’re building, what goes into it, and when anything is due. The estimate you sign is the job you get.
- Estimate, written & itemizedalways free
- Materialsreceipts shown, you approve
- The crewAl & Cody, no subs
- Surprises behind the walltold the same day
On major projects nothing is due until we’ve put a full day of work into your home. You watch the job start before the first dollar moves. Balance at your walk-through.
How a job runs. Same way since 1996.
Work order · four lines · no surprises
Around here a remodel quote usually means a salesman on your couch and a number that moves. Ours doesn’t work like that. Here’s the whole process, including exactly when money changes hands:

Job photos · straight off the crew’s phones
4,924 jobs, and almost none of them photographed for the internet, because the internet isn’t where the work came from. That’s changing. Here are the first ones.
A father, a son, and thirty years of Wooster bathrooms.
Filed under · who shows up
Barnes Home Improvements started in 1996 and never left Wooster. Today it’s Al and Cody, father and son, doing the work themselves: no rotating crews, no subcontractors, no job handed off to somebody you’ve never met. The person who quotes your bathroom is the person who builds it.
The big remodel outfits advertise that their installers are background-checked employees. Ours are a man and his son who’ve had the same phone number for thirty years. Check whatever you like: we’re insured, we’re local, and there’s a good chance someone on your street has our work in their house.
For years most of our work came through installer contracts and word of mouth: 4,924 jobs for your neighbors that never showed up on the internet. This site is us fixing that. The work was always here; now the proof is too.
