Everyone at Barker & Sons has been amazing to work with. We’ve had a few emergencies they’ve helped us through and are always prompt, friendly and polite. We’ve never had to clean up after any of their work. Special shoutout to Orlando, who is always quick to respond to all our questions after having our tankless water heater installed!
Great service and very responsive to your needs.

Jonathan and Garrett with Barker & Sons deserve 10 stars! They came out promptly, took such great care with our concerns and fixed our problem. They will be our ‘go to’ team for any future plumbing concerns. Thank you Jonathan and Garrett!
Orlando was the ultimate professional from start to finish. His knowledge and experience made the entire process seem less daunting than it really was, and it was a lot of work.
