In 1975, Tim Barnard moved to Montana with an idea that he could start his own construction company. He had $1,000, two shovels, a pick, and all of his worldly possessions in the cab of his pickup. His grandmother loaned him $3,500 to cover his first bond on a $17,000 project. Since then, he’s never looked back. Today, Barnard is a large heavy-civil construction company with projects worldwide. People building for People. That's what we do at Barnard. Whether we're raising a dam in Alaska, constructing a reservoir in Texas, tunneling under downtown San Francisco, repairing a penstock in British Columbia, or strengthening and improving the integrity of a natural gas pipeline in a Sacramento suburb, our people arrive at our projects with a determination to do the best for their communities and be the best in the industry. Our work also encompasses hydropower, power transmission, marine, water and sewer pipeline, and environmental construction. Most often our projects include several of these elements. They always present a challenge. They affect our neighbors as well as our families. We live where we work, so we come to know our projects personally. We build for People.
