Barker and sons was great - very responsive, very nice person. I recommend them!
Orlando did a wonderful job replacing our leaking water heater and repaired a broken high pressure valve in our yard.

After the above work We had a new problem Barker solved: Orlando from Barker and Sons was excellent and Barker…
I'm extremely satisfied with the top notch service from Barker and Son's Plumbing. The technician accessed my concerns with respect. He showed me what's needs to be addressed and gave me three options to choose from in regards to repairs and prices. I highly recommend Barker and Son's Plumbing and Rooter! Highly…
I was having water pressure problems. Todd came out, quickly assessed the situation, tested to diagnose the problem, explained my options, then carried out the work necessary to resolve the issue. Todd communicated with me throughout the process, and made certain everything was working well before he left . Thanks Todd.
Responsive, good communication, text messages, calls, you know who is coming and when. Polite, asked if they can help with anything, wore foot covers in the house, left the site clean. We bought the service thing and had a faucet installed too. People at work said they paid more than we did so even though it was…
Daniel did an awesome job, great customer service! He gets my 'Service of Unequal Excellence' award!
The plumber , Garrett, was thorough, diagnosed the problem and fixed it! They honored a full warranty on the fixture too!
Orlando was friendly and professional. I appreciate his repairs and getting everything done.
This was the 3rd time we have had Corey come out to our home. Each time we have added more work for Corey to do. This last visit Corey finished with repairing a bathroom faucet and we now needed a new kitchen faucet. Corey showed us the brochure and he went over and explained the different faucets. Now we have a…
Awesome job Corey! You saved the day 🙌🏼
Iheb was fantastic! He was on time, communicated clearly the scope of work, and pricing. He explained what he was doing and why. The work area was kept clean and tidy. Added bonus he likes dogs😊!
Orlando came out to check our leaking sink. Went above and beyond, spoke to our tenant and he. Great service and very nice person.
Exceptional Service from Corey at Barker and Sons Plumbing We recently had Corey from Barker and Sons Plumbing come out to our home, and we could not have been more impressed with his work, professionalism, and the way he treated our home and family. He replaced our kitchen faucet and hose fittings and installed a…
Todd was great. He was honest, straightforward and took his time to go over every detail thoroughly. He was polite and I appreciated that he didn’t skip or cut any corners. The inspection fee was higher than I thought but in the end, Todd made me feel more comfortable about it. He suggested a few of the next steps…
Tod was very knowledgeable and explained everything so I could understand. He fixed our problem in a timely manner.
Orlando came to evaluate our toilet after it was experiencing some issues. It was a quick consultation and everything was able to be resolved quickly.
Alex was amazing. He was able to help diagnose a problem that could have been terrible if left unchecked. He went above and beyond. We were hesitant about needing a pro, but it was worth it. I couple of fixes saved us thousands down the road. He was knowledge about so many topics. 5 stars!!!!
Orlando was great. On time and so quick to solve the issue. Highly recommend!!
Orlando is the best!! He is professional, friendly and easy to work with. I really appreciated that he took time to explain everything to me. All of his work was done with great attention to detail. Amazing experience from start to finish. Thank you Orlando!
Corey was great! Needed to fix leak under kitchen sink and had valves and the faucet upgraded and changed out at the same time. He explained everything he was going to do clearly. He arrived on time and finished in a timely manner and left everything neat and tidy. I've use Barker and Sons on several occasions for…
Quite possibly, one of the best experiences with a plumber that I've ever had. The technician who came to my home (Ali) was professional, very skilled and efficient. He diagnosed the problem, suggested a resolution and quoted me a price. Was it the cheapest quote? No. However, when it comes to professionals…
Corey was awesome. Efficient and friendly. Highly recommend.
I’m a very happy customer and highly recommend this business. I had plumbing emergency on a Sunday and called at least 10 different companies and none of them were responding. Barker and Sons picked up the phone and reassured me they will send someone within an hour. Bo P was super professional, knowledgeable, and…
Cory was the best got my repair done quickly and professionally
Mike S. Was simply fantastic. Knowledgeable, professional and very nice. I don’t think I will use any other plumbing company but your company. Thank you
Nice lady I spoke with to set up an appointment. However the plumber they sent out clearly needs some training in repairing faucets. Used a channelock pliers to unscrew handle valves and badly scratched up my oil rubbed bronze faucet. Then didn’t know how to remove stuck valves. Charged me $165 and left with the…
We had Corey come out and fix a leak in our bathroom. He was incredibly professional. What I liked the most was that he went step by step telling us what he was going to do and what the issues were. He was very transparent about what he was going to be charged as well. He offered us several "stopping" point to make…
Jeff explained quite a bit of things for our other plumbing issues. Decent and polite person.
Technician did a good job. Was very thorough and professional. Checked and double checked the work.
Orlando and Brian did a wonderful job! Very professional.
Ali came out and was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. The work was top notch and done at an efficient pace.
RB was my technician and he did an amazing job! He was incredibly professional, explained everything, and fixed our issue quickly. I couldn’t recommend him more. Great asset to your company.
I needed a new water heater and it was Saturday morning. Chris Delgado was deployed and I am very pleased. Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and skilled. He explained the entire process and worked efficiently to install a new unit in the timeframe promised. He was clean and tidy and left everything looking…
Very professional.
Orlando was very thorough and provided several options for replacing some laundry faucets! It took some ingenuity but he was able to replace them at a reasonable cost. Orlando also informed me of some things that were safety hazards that needed repair. I decided to have him do the work. I received very…
Orlando worked on our secondary bathroom plumbing for us. He was great and went above and beyond!!
Wonderful experience with Corey of Barker and Sons Plumbing! We knew our mobile home needed a complete repiping but we weren't aware how badly the pipes underneath were leaking, Corey took video of the stream flowing from our pipes and we realized how much water was being wasted and went ahead and jumped in.…
Service is always great from Barker & Sons. We had issues with our tankless water heaters, and their team handled everything quickly and professionally. A full crew showed up, diagnosed the problem right away, and had it fixed within just a few hours. Orlando was a joy to work with!
Ali and Dylan are fantastic technicians and wonderful, kind people to work with. Very knowledgeable in solving our plumbing issue. Thank-you to Barker & Sons for having these two on your team!!!
A trustworthy plumber is a must have for any homeowner, especially those with small children… IYKYK. Barker and Sons is my go-to when plumbing mishaps arise. I appreciate how quickly the company responds to communication and he’s service scheduled. They sent a text message with the technician’s picture, ETA, contact…
Todd did a great job at our house today! He spent extra time discussing a few of our plumbing issues. He was helpful and professional and I plan to use Barker Plumbing again because of Todd!

RB was courteous, gave us detail repair options , and got the job done efficiently. Thank you!
Alex was beyond professional and courteous and kind. My work was completed in a timely manner and and clean up was better then it was when he got here. I would recommend him to anyone.
Peter from Barker & Sons Plumbing was extremely thorough in handling my lavatory drainage (faucet sink). I had a plumbing back up and clogged sink, they found the issue right away and cleared it up immediately. Plus he gave me some very helpful recommendations for preventative maintenance. I highly recommend their…

I never knew i could have such a great experience working with a plumbing company but i did with Barker and Sons! I love that they communicate with you every step of the way from appointment setting to when the…
I would like to take the time to acknowledge Corey's exceptional work as one of the company's plumbers. He is thorough, knowledgeable, and meticulous in his approach, taking the time to explain everything in detail. His diligence extends to identifying potential additional issues, showcasing his commitment to…
Todd came out to install a new water heater in my home. During the installation he identified a large amount of sediment in my system that required him to flush out all the water lines in the house. He took the time to address each area to make sure they were clear of the sediment and left the areas spotless when he…
Outstanding service!!!! Great job from start to finish!!!!
Jonathan and Garrett were not only professionally courteous, but they also knew exactly what they were doing. They did excellent work installing a new tankless water heater. I’d be happy to recommend them. UPDATE: J&G returned to troubleshoot an issue that arose post heater installation—they spent a lot of time…
Orlando, with Barker and Sons, replaced our kitchen faucet, cocktail-water dispenser, soap dispenser, and installed a new garbage disposal and a new upgraded RO system. He finished this entire project in less than half a day. The project turned out perfect and beautiful. Orlando's installation was impeccable.…
We chose Barker due to past experiences. When the time came for a decent size project, we contacted Barker & Sons. I first want to thank Ivan for all his dedication and hard work. I appreciated his leadership and his communication skills. I also want to thank all the Barker team, for their professionalism. Peace of Mind
Great communication by text message and phone calls for arrival of Eddie..It was the second time we have used Eddie and I would give him five stars. His communication, explanation and interest in our home was Amazing ! I would highly recommend requesting Eddie for any plumbing needs you have. Thank you again. .
Corey M came out and did a fantastic job. He identified the issue and thoroughly explained the steps needed to resolve it. Corey was very polite and respectful. He works with speedy integrity. He was under the house, in through the walls, and took care replacing old pipes, nipples, a faucet, and a sink basket. He…
I was really impressed by the level of customer service and professionalism. Orlando clearly knows his job inside and out, and it shows how much he genuinely enjoys what he does. He explained things thoroughly and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Great experience overall!
Alex was able to help us get the hot water valve for the washer fixed. He also updated our main water valve too. Thank you!
Great work. Ali was helpful, patient and knowledgeable.
Had several plumbing services done to prepare for selling of our home. Alex was terrific! So knowledgeable and professional and even made friends with our 2 year old grandson during his days with us. He went over and beyond the call of duty. Would highly recommend Alex and Barker&Sons Plumbing.
I have great things to say about Rudy and Barker Brothers plumbing! Your plumber Rudy was an excellent representative of your company. He was on time and did a great job completing the installation of new faucets and fixing the outside shut off valves…. this young man was so very polite and professional! He is a…

Great service
Barker and sons installed a new toilet and faucet for me. They were super helpful through the process. Corey was my original tech who came to take a look at the faucet. He was very knowledgably and thorough. Great communication skills. Unfortunately due to unexpected issue with a previous job Corey was not able to…
I cannot say enough good things about this company. I met Eddie on the first day of the many projects and was taken by his warmth, honesty and helpful suggestions. I experienced mold and called Eddie’s company to help after remediation. He found a big water leak on the pipe from the meter to the house which probably…

Great service from Phillip, Samuel and Petar, I would highly recommend Barker And Sons for all of your plumbing needs.
We have a 60 year old house and have been using Barker and Sons Plumbing for years and years! Every time they are prompt, courteous and tackle the issues this ‘ol house throws at us with care! If you have a good old house you’d be wise to have their number handy. You’ll be thankful you did by hiring such great professionals!
Nate was great! Very knowledgeable and detail oriented. Made sure everything was done properly. He's also just a very very nice guy. A pleasure to work with.
We recently had B&S replace some faucets, etc in our bathrooms and kitchen. B&S have done a number of jobs for us over the years (e.g., install new water heater, hydrojet drain/sewer line, etc). Orlando came out this time and did a really good job, professional and courteous. 5-stars!
Another great and timely repair of some bathroom plumbing.
Excellent work. My technician was excellent and did a great job -- my problem was solved and I give him 4 stars -- very professional and polite! Have used them 4 times besides this and will use them again. Have recommended them to many of my neighbors
Corey came out to replace my kitchen faucet fixture and I’m very pleased with the work. He was able to find solutions to some unique issues, including the city shut off valve not completely shutting off the water. Greatly appreciate that he identified that and was also have him come back to change to an updated…
Clayton was highly efficient and flexible with scheduling. Five star all the way!
