About Us

The Origins

where it began

Barr Baleares Directors Stuart Barr and James Armstrong go back a long way. With shared childhoods, similar interests, practical minds and more than a dash of ‘detail obsession’, Stuart followed James to Oxford’s Rycotewood College, where precision cabinetry shaped both of their worlds. From there James set up a property development business in South Devon and Stuart founded StuartBarr CDR (and later BarrJoinery and BarrKitchens) in Oxfordshire. James is based full time in Mallorca, with Stuart splitting his time between there and the UK, bringing Barr Baleares into the already established fold of the Barr Group companies.

The Group

a team approach

Working alongside the directors are Pedro Bedrán, with a detailed knowledge of local planning and building regulations and Rachele Bowley, the creative mind behind Barr Baleares. The team also has in house expertise in real estate and a strong administrative arm which operates through a project management system designed specifically to meet the needs of the Barr Group companies and its clients. Made to measure kitchens, joinery and cabinetry services are also available as part of the complete Barr Baleares offering.

The Vision

where we are going

The vision behind Barr Baleares is to provide the same quality of build service on the island of Mallorca as offered by the Barr Group in the UK. By using a mix of local and international trades, skill sets, materials and suppliers, Barr Baleares provide the perfect balance of ‘Mallorquin’ and global, for each individual project. The approach takes each client from their initial speculative trip to the island to thier first step into their finished Mallorcan property.

The Ethos

what we believe in

From the beginning, the Barr Group has strived to achieve the extraordinary in terms of design and build. Attention to detail is the foundation on which Barr Baleares has been built. The result is a complete locate, design and build service; both efficient and effective, no corners cut, no stone left unturned. Embracing each challenge and ‘doing thing differently’ are key values to the Barr Baleares team: a direct result of the natural drive of its two directors.

The Offering

what we do

The Barr Group provide a comprehensive procurement, design and build service in Mallorca for clients based on the island, in the UK or further afield. A partnership approach deals effectively with those barriers associated with building abroad; differences in language, standards and working practices, as well as issues with planning and local amenities. The resultant offering is an outstanding build service, delivered in sympathy with the local environment.
