What do our clients think?

“We have used Barr Demolition on a few occasions for specialized work, from asbestos removal to building demolition. On all jobs they were professional from the outset. They dealt with all legalities concerning Health & Safety and carried all works out to a high standard. We would have no hesitation to recommend their services and look forward to working with them in the future.”

Ken Dickson Director, Dontay Contracts Ltd

“Barr Demolition has completed a number of projects on behalf of Aberdeen Harbour over the past 10 years and have always demonstrated a professional approach to the works, with each of the projects completed in a safe and timely manner. Their attention to the health and safety of those who may be affected by the works is always their number one priority. We would have no hesitation in using Barr Demolition again in the future and would recommend their services.”

Aberdeen Harbour


“We used Barr demolition to demolish a large hotel and leisure complex in the West end of Aberdeen.  This was a fairly complex job located within a residential area but despite these challenges Duncan and his team carried out all works in a methodical , safe and diligent manner. I would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a demolition job done to a professional standard.”

Bruce Allan Director Malcolm Allan Housebuilders Ltd

“Barr Demolition have done several projects for us over recent years of varying size, value and complexity. Each one has gone very smoothly and Duncan and his whole team have shown great attention to detail and given consideration before and during the works to Health and Safety, Programme and those neighbours close to the works.

They have a can-do attitude and bring professionalism to the table in all that they do. 

In particular, Barr recently completed a large and significant demolition project for us and brought several innovative ideas to us for the recycling of the demolitions and worked closely with us to make best use of some of the materials that could be used in the follow-on construction. Their advice is always honest and for the benefit of the client and their collaborative attitude ensures we would have no hesitation working time and again with their team.

Barr have also provided us with advice and sequencing / method statements on projects at viability and tender / bid stage to give us a better understanding of commercials and timescales involved which has helped in our bid process.”

Howard Crawshaw Managing Director

“The Muir Group of Companies have used Barr Demolition on various projects ranging from full demolition, asbestos removal, internal strip outs and site clearances and found them to be a professional organisation from initial enquiry through to contract completion, and we would have no hesitation in recommending their services and look forward to working with them again in the future.”
