James Kelley was professional, thorough, answered all my questions and concerns about my drainage problems. He also was so honest in that he did not sell me a sump pump when I didn’t need one, even though he knew I was ready to buy. That shows a lot on integrity. Tuni
As an early care and education facility serving children ages six weeks through five years of age, staying open and maintaining a safe, functioning facility is our top priority. At the end of the day, we hit a catastrophic plumbing emergency that threatened to keep us from opening our doors the next morning. Barker…
timely response, good communication, and i joined their membership program to ensure we are well taken care of over the next 18 months! Davis, Ricardo, and Robert all did a fantastic job!
Luke was very professional and did an outstanding job diagnosing our problem-we will certainly use you in the future
Experience was decent until plumber showed up with a camera and started lying about seeing a double combi installed and being illegal. Its is impossible to see a double combi from a camera in the sewer main line People have lived in this house for 5 years without any back ups But all of a sudden when this guy shows…
So far, my husband and I appreciate the professionalism from Jonathan and Garrett. They were very thorough with their findings and up front with the work that needs to be done. They were friendly and not pushy. We look forward to seeing the amazing results from this company!
Barker And Sons, Bany, & Peter D. Technicians arrived ontime, were very professional, got the job done in a timely manner. I am very happy with the results of the service. From a call to schedule to installation the team made my experience the best I have ever had. I will be using them in the future and highly…
Jesse and Tristian did great today and was pleased with there work and service
Great experience with Ricky and Peter, they are very communicative, timely and thorough in explaining the issues and potential solutions. I really appreciate their patience and hard work on all the prep work, will add more when the rest of the job is complete! Thank you!
Barker and Sons is wonderful.We have used them both for some complicated plumbing issues at our business and difficult plumbing issues in our 65 year old home. Peter, Jesse, Julio, Bo, Tanner, Pedro, have been honest, very knowledgeable and so helpful in what could have been a difficult. I highly recommend Barker and Sons. I love this company!
Your web page stated “provide common courtesy, respect, quality work and professionalism” and your team provided me all these qualities. From the first call to the end of the project (and it was a major project) the office personnel and the entire repair crew were fantastic. I was kept informed throughout the…
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
Fantastic Service. Saving Grace with heart. It was a holiday, it was raining hard, and a septic issue can be dire. They answered swift, asked how can I make your day better. Oh how I appreciated that. Not only was Ivan dispatched that day, but Tristan returned another day, and complete stoppage was averted.…
Technicians Oscar and Tristan were over the top professional. I notice they take pride in there work. Thinking simple drain clogging lead to more work but they worked in rain, digging up the yard, on the roof top to get the camera to see the blockage that was caused by my tree roots. Extremely happy, showed up…
Levy and Luke from Barker&Sons did a great job assessing our problem. Their professionalism was appreciated at this trying time. I highly recommend this company.
Josh C was professional, communicative, and calm. He walked me through every step of the way and made the process less of a headache than i thought it was going to be.
Tree Roots in your Sewer line is not a good thing!!! However I am really grateful for the Amazing Customer Service and Skills of Barker & Sons plumbing. (I recently had Barker & Sons install a water Heater and I was very impressed with their service!) Julian, Peter and Ricardo were able to quickly assess one of my…
Both Peter and Ricky came to my house. I found them very professional and taking time to go over all the aspects of their work with me....solid family company! They had a website coupon and they honored it no tricks. Hire them!
Another plumbing problem another great experience with Barker and Sons. Oscar and Pete to the rescue. They were great and took care of my problem. Thank you Oscar and Pete for finding the problem explaining it to me and fixing it. Barker and Sons only hires the best.
It was a major task encompassing our total home sewer system. Aging cast iron sewer lines and tree roots invading the joints were the cause of the blockage. It was a 4 day project only because nobody from Barker & Sons arrived for 1 entire day which was disappointing. However, the amount & quality of work performed…
I needed plumbing service at my new home and I am glad I chose Barker and Sons. They were quick to respond and set up an appt for the next day. Sam, my technician was wonderful. He clearly explained to me what work was needed and provided a detailed quote. He fixed the problems the day and was fast and didn't…
Great service. Very knowledgeable both Cody and Orlando. Explained all options and pricing thoroughly as well as after care to maintain everything.
I called the office and one hour later a very nice technician showed up . After examining the problem , he clearly explained it and gave me the price for the service . Half hour later he was done and all good . I even got a senior discount . I would recommend this company to anyone who needs a good and professional plumber .
Above expectations! This was a major sewer line repair/replacement. Orlando and his crew worked in brutal heat 10-12 hours a day for 3+ days excavating and replying two sewer lines then on the 4th day relining the remaining sewer lines. Alway courteous and consciences of the home and occupants. Cleaned up daily and…
Company is easy to schedule and communicate clearly and accurately what to expect. Technician was polite and professional. He diagnosed all the issues but also considered the root cause of the problems.
Very professional and friendly.
Great service. Zach was very professional and polite. Zach worked extra hard to get the job done in one day without cutting corners. Many thanks.
Carlos showed up on time and ready to work. Very friendly and professional.
I do the sewer drainage and hydro jet main sewer through outside clean out. Hydro jet to cut all the roots damaged my main sewer pipe lines. Orlando is my main service technician. He done an amazing work. Christopher, Albert and Ricardo are helping Orlando to finish the work. They done great job. I will refer my…

Had a backup in our kitchen sink. Turns out it was the main line on that side of the house. They sent a technician, and he was fast easy to work with and explained everything he was doing. Upfront with the cost. No upsale bs. Very happy thank you!
Great experience with Dylan Would use again for sure.
These guys were so professional, respectful, friendly and kind. They did a great, thorough job and did above and beyond what I would have expected. They took the time to explain things to me and what needs to be done in the future. I can't say enough about what a great experience it was having them take care of…
Danny Yoo was a wonderful plumber. He came in an hour. He was friendly, he was reassuring and systematically figured out what was wrong and within an hour he resolved our situation. Would recommend!
Came to rescue my severely backed up house. They gave me options to choose from with a great deal. I was so impressed with them. I will definitely hire Barker and Sons again in the future.
