Barnes has always provided solid, quality work for very reasonable prices. I’m fairly handy, but I know my limits. Anytime the work is behind what I’m able to handle, I call Barnes.

I have been very happy with Barnes Plumbing over the years. I have used them many times and they always do a great job at a fair price. They put in all the plumbing for a new bathroom. They replaced my galvanized water pipes with PEX. They fixed a broken floor drain by breaking up the concrete floor in the basement and replacing the pipe. They have always been very reliable and they have great communication.

I'm very thankful that my friend and I made it to Menards before they closed, and that it failed a few weeks after we were …

I was referred to Barnes plumbing by a trusted friend, so I was expecting top notch service and treatment. That did not happen. We had a gas pipe leak that needed to be addressed, and when I called I explained the situation, that the gas was turned off, and that Centerpoint Energy had been there. When I learned of the after hours price, I declined in favor of someone coming the next morning. I got a call in the m…
