Replaced old garbage disposable with new one (3/4 home phone number).
Entire appointment team and technician Oscar was friendly and efficient!!! Thank you!!!
Huge shoutout to Jesse for coming out and fixing our garbage disposal! He was prompt, professional, and genuinely one of the kindest service workers I’ve had come through. He got the job done in a timely manner without cutting any corners, and made the whole experience stress-free. Really appreciate the great service!
Quick to respond and professional.
Eddie Nova was unbelievable...he was very professional and through with his explanation of what we needed done..he listened patiently and answered all of our questions with a smile..I will be calling again when we need something else..Eddie Nova is a superstar
Iggy was a great help. He stayed for an extended period making sure the job was done to an above par level. There was no attempt to half ass the job and made sure to do their best to not require another visit.
Plumbers Oscar & Tristan were awesome & professional. They both were able to fix the issue we had. I would definitely want them to come back out again if we have any issues. If you have any questions or issues I would most definitely recommend them .. they are knowledgeable in their craft. Thank you for your time and work.
Your team was very thorough and handled my issue promptly.
The Barker and Sons people are so nice! Eddie was right on time. He was so friendly and careful to explain everything to my 97 year old Dad with hearing problems! It turns out that we only needed to have a hose/drain unclogged which Eddie did quickly and the price was VERY reasonable. I highly recommend!
Ben not only replaced our hot water heater with great talent and very good equipment and materials, he gave us his time to help us through the process. I know this because I have done this work before and I am greatfull for Ben and the Barker family. Keep up the good work!
Joseph was the best! He was very quick to diagnose my issue and there was no BS. He didn't try to rip me off and he did an absolute awesome job in a very quick and timely manner so I could go on with my day. I will be calling you guys with any future work I need done. Thanks Joseph for your awesome work ethic!
Overall it was a fine experience. Oscar was very friendly & helpful. Also the dispatchers were helpful as well. It ran me 275 for basically a pipe fix & 45 mins of work, which felt a little pricey, but other than that it was good 👍🏼
Great quality and service! Ivan and Sam were able to fix our problem in no time. Would definitely use them again for repairs
The service was great and the workers were great. Very helpful and nice.
Oscar performed excellent service, very thorough in explaining what the problem was and how it needs to be fixed.
Service technician, Johnny R., was excellent. Professional, knowledgable, explained everything well. Job was completed above satisfaction. Cleaned up nicely. Wore protective booties while inside. Definitely our new plumber!
Clayton was highly efficient and flexible with scheduling. Five star all the way!
I spoke with Jennifer first to schedule someone. She was such a sweetheart and had such a pleasant voice. Joseph was the tech that came. Really nice guy! He was very polite and respectful to put on his shoe covers even though I told him there wasn’t a need to. I had an issue with the garbage disposal not spinning.…
Amazing job- that day and get everything fixed for a great price. They will be my plumber going forward!
These guys showed up to my house very quickly, gave me an estimate and fixed 4 different issues I had with my sink in just a few short hours. Good people too!
Carlos was great, with excellent explanations of the problem and proposed fixes (and prices) and provided efficient and professional services to repair my garbage disposal. I would definitely use them again!!
Carlos was very pofessional and was able to fix our problrmquickly.
Orlando was so professional and helpful! I am a property owner in San Diego and used Baker from out of town. I felt like I was in the know throughout. Thank you.
Repaired twice. Dishwasher hose blew off after 1st repair, but Barker responded same day and remedied it. Stuff happens, but they responddd
UPDATE, Carlos was amazing. Another great job by Baker and Sons. Would not hesitate to give to them a full A++++ rating. Daniel was fantastic, this is the second time I've used Baker and Sons and both times A+++. Friendly, fast, clean, on time, keep you updated with txt messages. I hope I don't have to use them but…
[posted for my Mother} I had a leak coming from under my kitchen sink. Carlos was my technician who did a thorough leak check, keeping me informed to what he found and even showed me photos. Very professional and was a very pleasant and polite man.
Great service and value. Extremely knowledgeable and professional workforce. Highly recommend this business.
Barker and Sons was communicative, thorough, professional and kind. I’d highly recommend and use them again!
Way overpriced and they do not back up their own work. Responded six days after I called!!! The owner refused to talk to me because he “had no time” …!!!
James was very professional and super courteous. His assessment of my concerns were addressed immediately and I was informed every step of the way. I have additional work to be done and I am confident that I will use Barker and Sons, request James, and all will be completed correctly 😀
This is a wonderful company from your first phone call to the end result. They will give you options on what can resolve your issue and there is NO pressure to choose. I could have kept my old garbage disposal but decided to get a new one. He was very efficient and friendly and did a great job cleaning up. Thank you! I highly recommend this business.
These plumbers are the best! Jesse is the technician that always solves the problems at our house. He explains everything very well and does great work. Anytime I have a plumbing problem, I always call Barker and Sons. They have replaced leaky pipes, installed new faucet and garbage disposal. I also used them to…
The entire staff and experience. Richard was amazing, and every in the office is friendly and informative. Tina was great! Always giving me updates and trust me, I need them. It is a family owned business I believe and it shows with each interaction. The people love what they are doing and who they are doing it for.…
Great service! On time and friendly.Would use again. Thanks!
Your rates are far too high and you're too slow to take care of simple problems that occurred in my case
Ask for Orlando! He is the best !! ❤️✨ friendly and professional
Dylan and Cody did a wonderful job to replace our insinkertaor, gave prompt advice on the cost and they have the stock right away in their truck, super efficient team. I give them 5 stars rating, even though the loose faucet handle couldn’t be fully tightened on the spot, but they gave us direction on how to…
