EXCELLENT Based on 1407 reviews Posted on Google ThatVRGirlTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic Service by Todd! They were able to get out the day after I noticed leaking from our garbage disposal. Todd quickly diagnosed the issue, and was able to change it out for a new one promptly in the very same day! Very friendly, quick, clean and thorough service by Todd.Posted on Google Debra GomezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I woke up this morning and heard the sound of a drip, drip, drip. I then looked up and saw what looked to be a water stain. Panic hit so I thought of Barnett Plumbing because they serviced my water heater. They sent Todd right out to my house within an hour. He was very professional and got up into my attic because I had my house repiped several years ago. He found the leak and got someone to fix it within 2 hours. I have nothing but high praise for this company and their very competent employees. I also wanted to thank Gee. He was the plumber that showed up within 2 hours to repair the leak. He was very professional and got the work done quickly. Both Gee and Todd were so helpful and respectful of my home.Posted on Google f garlickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

He was professional and knowledgeable and put everything back the way he found it. Lucky for me, no leaks were detected! I appreciate the fast and kind service.
