We love Barker & Sons. Their plumbers are friendly, knowledgeable and get the work done quickly. Jesse and Bo were awesome. We always call Barker & Sons for all our plumbing needs.
Thank you for your help. Iheb did a great job He was on time and on task For my tankless water heater replaced in under 23 hours Couldn’t be happier
Cory was very efficient and excellent quality of work performed.
Got my smashed toilet (I fell on it...long story) replaced and a malfunctioning shower valve replaced. Plumber Orlando was very knowledgeable and personable.
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.
Orlando was here today to make plumbing repairs. He did excellent work and extremely polite, professional, and hard-working. We will request Orlando next time.

Super helpful, Orlando came to the house and was really nice and respectful, got all of the work done very quickly and am super happy with the service we got. Was up to date on everything as it was happening and appreciate the great work!
Great service, Orlando is super nice and professional.
I recently hired Barker and Sons to install a new toilet and bathtub/shower. The crew, Todd, CoreyA., and Christian, did a superb job. The toilet installation was straightforward, but the bathtub was quite a challenge. The alcove for the tub was slightly too small and out-of-square as well. After considerable…
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
This is the 5th time we’ve relied on Barker and Sons for a plumbing repair. I had an outstanding experience with the plumbing team that came to my home — Carlos P. as the lead technician and Oscar as his assistant. From the moment they arrived, they carried themselves with professionalism, respect, and a genuine…
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. He and his team (Cooper and Cory) got down to business and knocked out the work without sacrificing precision and care. I highly recommend…
Corey was truly an outstanding plumbing representative! He was professional, arrived on time, was kind and explained well the process and reasoning for his service. Work was completed promptly, and left with everything clean. Appreciate his 5-star 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…
Great service, friendly staff, work completed in a timely manner. Shout out to Ricky, Pete, Ricardo, Ivan, and Connor who did an outstanding job on the install and clean-up. They were polite, answered all my questions, were easy to work with and worked efficiently. A little better communication from the timing on…
Great response time knowable technician Gabe did a great job!
Corey was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I would use them again for any plumbing needs and highly recommend them.
We were very impressed with Nick. He was professional and thorough while completing the repairs. When consulting on additional needs, I found him to be honest and direct leaving no question unanswered. I would certainly recommend Nick along with Barker and Sons for future projects.
Excellent, friendly and courteous service
And the past I've used Parker & sons Plumbing to replace three toilets, softener and sink and shower fixtures. I appreciate the fact they always have contacted me, updated me as to where and when my technician would arrive. They also include their picture so I know what they'll look like! Lol. Just you know, I'm an…
I’ve had two great experiences with Barker & Sons. The first was for a full house repipe, and water heater installation with Jason and team. The second for a recent toilet install with Ivan. In both instances, their workers have gone above and beyond and have addressed and issue whether big or small. Very happy with my service.
I contacted Barker & Sons to get a 2nd opinion on a Sat afternoon, (Thinking they wouldn’t be able to come out until a weekday) They asked if I had hot water…which I did not. Within a short period of time, I received a message that they were sending someone over. Daniel showed up and was awesome. He listened to my…
Great service from Phillip, Samuel and Petar, I would highly recommend Barker And Sons for all of your plumbing needs.
This was a very professional, clean, and friendly service. Josh G. and company were fantastic. They were respectful of my home, my time and were easy to communicate with. They were quick to respond to my questions and I felt they were being honest in the assessment and estimate of costs. You want good service and a…
The Gentleman was very professional and the job was very well done! Very please with your service.
Excellent work. Appreciate the effort and dedication. Recommend Pioter and the company highly. Thank you!
Tyler was a perfect balance of being professional and friendly. He answered all my questions. Gave me honest answers. Not once did he use fear and scare tactics to try to influence me to get more work done. We had an old toilet replaced. Gave us 3 options for repairs. I highly recommend.
This is the third time I have used Barker and Sons and I highly recommend them. Peter came today to install a new garbage disposal, and previously he helped me with a water pressure problem. They are honest and professional
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.
Clean, professional and pleasant
Zach was great, was right on time. Found the problem and replaced the problem toilet. Would highly recommend Zach and the plumbing company.
We had a very positive experience with Barker & Son. Jimmy Kelley was our installer and was 100% on his game. We will recommend to all our friends/clients. Thank You
Friendly service and very dependable.
All the workers on the job were friendly and respectful. Supervisor kept us informed of all the details of the job. They were able to completely remove and replace half of our 60yr old drain system under the house and put PVC replacements in 2 days. Will definitely have them come back to do the other side when it…
I found this place through google. I could see why these guys had so high rate on google. Everything went so smooth with this company. Very nice customer service as well as finishes job so quickly. All the workers were so helpful. I called this morning urgently and they came and finished the job asap. I highly recommend this place for everyone.
Replaced old water line hook ups for Washer.
Very happy with the prompt, professional service provided from Zachary and this company.
We looked at different companies to compare quotes and all were about the same. We moved forward with Barker and Sons because they seemed apart from the rest. We would be glad to do business with them in the future.
they did great in everything
Technician Gabe and his team were called for repairing the rusted out toilet flange and installing a new toilet. Gabe explain the options I can take and the work process professionally. He and his team performed the task with skills and good workmanship. Majority of job was completed the same day and remaining…
Gabe did a fabulous job installing my toilet. He was courteous, capable and very professional. I appreciated his honest disclosure of my options and his timely, efficient work. Great job!
Excellent, always dependable, AAA+ work. HIGHLY recommend!!!
Issac and his team were supportive, kind, understanding and very helpful. The job they were tasked with in my opinion was nasty and not only did they fix everything, Issac also thought of things that made my mothers installations safer and better for her. I greatly appreciate all the kindness he showed throughout the entire job.
As usual, Barker &Sons comes through again. We called early in the morning and they were there by 10AM. Their technician, Matt, was courteous, practical, knowledgeable and gave us good advice with a variety of options. He walked us through the order process, and made sure we got the product we were looking for. He…
We had to have plumbers come out several times in the last couple months. First our water heater started turning all our hot water rust colored so we had to have that replaced, then husbands toilet started leaking. Rich helped us with these two jobs and always came across as extremely knowledgeable, courteous and…
I couldn't have asked for a better experience addressing the uncertain issue of dealing with a leaking toilet. From my panicked call on Sunday with Alex, to the scheduling/update calls on Monday with Missy/Misty and Anthony to the actual service call with Dominick and Jesse, I received outstanding, courteous and…
My husband and I would again like to thank Barker and their very professional, skilled team headed by Orlando, for their work on our vintage home. They completed a major plumbing project in less time than quoted, with no issues. We trust your work and appreciate the knowledge and skill that always gives us peace of mind!
I called for an estimate was comfortable with the quote and they were able to do the work (replacing three toilets) in the same day. Matt did an excellent job! Quality work. He was pleasant and patient when I had questions. I appreciate the service and will definitely consider Barker and Sons for future work.
Orlando did a great job
I Highly recommend Barker and sons for your plumbing needs. We had an excellent experience with Orlando and Isaac. They both were very professional and came to our house with masks and wore foot covers when entering. Orlando went over the estimate before proceeding with the work. They did a fantastic job! And I…
We have used Barker & Sons several times since purchasing our home last summer and we receive 5-star service each time. The administrative team is always kind and helpful when scheduling services and they are great at communicating on the day of service, so we know exactly when to expect a technician, seriously so…
Amazing customer service from the first phone call to finishing the job. Rich was THE most professional, polite, clean and competent plumber we have ever had. The follow up during and after the job was second to none. I cannot say enough good things about this company. Finally no more searching for a good plumber. Barker and Sons is my final stop.
This was our third time using Barker & Sons Plumbing. Technician Jeff did a great job diagnosing and replacing our leaking toilet.
