What We Do

Comprehensive building solutions for every project scale

From single-room renovations to full-scale commercial builds, we bring the same dedication to craftsmanship and attention to detail that has made us a trusted name in Belknap County.

Residential Construction

Custom homes, additions, and complete rebuilds. We work with homeowners throughout the Lakes Region to bring their vision to life with quality materials and expert craftsmanship.

Commercial Building

Retail spaces, offices, and light commercial builds. We understand the timelines and requirements that keep your business running while we construct yours.

Renovations & Remodeling

Kitchen and bath remodels, basement finishing, room additions — we transform existing spaces into functional, beautiful environments that fit your lifestyle.

Roofing & Siding

Protection starts from the outside in. We install and replace roofing, siding, and exterior systems built to withstand New Hampshire's demanding seasonal changes.

Decks & Outdoor Living

Custom decks, porches, and outdoor structures that extend your living space and capture the beauty of lake life in Belknap County.

Project Management

From permits to punch list, we handle the complexity so you don't have to. Transparent communication, realistic timelines, and accountability at every stage.

About Us

A Gilford family tradition in building

Charles Barnett Building Contractors, LLC has been a cornerstone of the Gilford construction community for over two decades. What started as a commitment to honest work and fair pricing grew into one of the Lakes Region's most trusted names in general contracting.

We are locally owned and operated from our base on Lake Shore Road. Every project we take on — whether a kitchen renovation in Laconia, a commercial build in Concord, or a custom home in Belknap County — receives the same standard of care and professionalism.

Our approach is straightforward: we listen carefully, plan thoroughly, and build with materials and methods that stand the test of time. No shortcuts. No surprises. Just quality construction you can count on.

Charles and his team rebuilt our deck and renovated our kitchen. The attention to detail was remarkable — they treated our home with the same care they would their own. Highly recommend.
