My water heater blew. I asked my neighbors for a recommendation and several people immediately replied "Harry Barr". I called Harry around 8pm, he immediately FaceTimed with me showing me what do do and tells me he'll be by "in the morning". He shows up at 7am, wearing a mask (gotta love 2020), takes a look and quotes me a price. He tells me his guy will "be here shortly"; maybe 20 minutes later his guy is here starting the work. Really nice guy, again in a mask (screw you 2020). In a very short time the job is done. It ended up costing less than Harry quoted, despite doing extra work that the guy said was "the right thing to do". Amazing work, so nice, actually talked me out of extra work they didn't feel I needed. The young guy doing the work told us they don't advertise and that all their business is word of mouth; they must be crazy busy!!!! Highly recommended!!!! read more

Quicker than expected response. Reasonable prices. Nice to work with. Work is guaranteed.

Harry Barr Plumbing and his team are the best. Had Nick to my house this morning for an emergency. Horrible leak behind my shower. Had no water for 2 days and I was getting desperate! Nick showed up on time and corrected the issues and made sure that everything was working properly. He went out of his way to keep the cost down and he did just that. Very fair price!! Thanks again Nick!! read more

We've used Harry and his team numerous times. They are always efficient and informative. They always have quality recommendations if their team doesn't handle that type of issue. They have installed a toilet and hot water heaters in my house on top of other small jobs. Don't hesitate to call them. read more

I'm very happy to have been referred to Harry. The friend of mine who recommended him spoke very highly of him. I've been using his services now for a couple years and couldn't imagine calling another plumber. It's great to have somebody friendly answer my call or get back to me right away like Harry does. I can count on him getting somebody out to help me as fast as he can. Harry helped me with my plumbing and my heating systems several times. I appreciate Harry repairing leaks and fixing my heater and not having me replace things unnecessarily. Harry is also a good person to talk to about other projects around the house and can recommend people of you need a referral. read more

I had an incredibly stubborn clog in my bathroom sink. Called Harry but he does not remove clogs. I called a company that specializes in this area but they were unable to clear the drain. (Don't know why) I called Harry back to see what he recommends and he told me he would stop over. He came first thing the next morning and told me exactly what the problem was and what to do to fix it. Harry didn't charge me for his time. I cleared the drain and saved money by doing it myself. Thank you harry! You have definitely earned my business in the future. Great guy! Highly recommend him!! John P. read more

My water heater was leaking from the top and I wasn't strong or tall enough to turn off its water supply. Harry came right away to do that and he gave me an estimate for the replacement, which was very fair. One of his people fixed the whole thing two days later. Very happy with the work they did. read more

My parents have used Harry Barr in the past and they were amazing and very honest. I've had the same experience with them recently, although they could not service our issue they didn't charge me to come out and take a look even though it was a same day call. Thanks! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this company. They are timely, professional, courteous, clean, friendly and reasonable for the exceptional service they provide. They have handled several issues for us including a leaking water heater and busted dryer vent. Each time I call Harry answers and is friendly and has someone here quickly. I will keep them on speed dial always... read more

I've been meaning to post this for a while. I've used Harry and his team for several years......they truly are the best!

I could not shut the water in my bathtub shower. It was dripping very badly. They showed up in just a couple of hours. Nick was very informative and professional. read more

In times like these when few companies value customer service I am overwhelmed with my exceptional experience tonight with Harry. As a result of other repairs our hot water wasn't working. We called Harry at 7:30pm for a call which we recognized might have been difficult to achieve. Harry took the initiative and guided me through a lengthy process over the phone to initiate my own repair! He is the best and I only hope others realize what a gem we have in our community. Thanks Harry!!! read more

In the middle of a rain snow storm on a Friday night they show up and just happen to have a sump pump. They are extremely professional and 100% committed to customer satisfaction. Highly recommend. read more

Just had a client with a frozen pipe & knew if not fixed quickly it could have been a disaster. Called Harry Barr Plumbing and they where than immediately to save the day! Thanks Harry Barr! Always Reliable Service! read more

They were returned my call right away. The job required that the town water department cut off water to the house. They were here to do the work at the appointed time, but the water department didn't show up. When the town arrived later and turned off the water, Barr made sure that one of his crew came right over to do the work. They finished and waited for the town to turn the water back on to make sure everything was okay. Barr Plumbing was a pleasure to work with. They're professional, thorough, and friendly. read more

Quick service, very honest. Workers are all very polite and prices were good. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing a plumber.

Service and repairs were very fair and reasonable!! Came out the same day and performed repairs. Super happy and excellent service!!! I highly recommend !! The owner Harry was awesome and so was Nick!! I finally found my new plumber and heating guys... read more

I called and spoke directly to Harry telling him I needed a bathroom faucet fixed but I had to wait until my husband was out of work during early afternoon because he works nights. My husband call when he was home and they said they would be there by 3 and they were a NO SHOW. I then called after 5pm and spoke with Harry again directly and he apparently didn't put the work order in , full of apologies and told me how unprofessional that was and that they would be at my house the following day at 12:30 and how sorry he was. Well, guess what, another NO SHOW. Now I get Harry on the phone again and he then wants to tell me that I was the next job After 12:30. I know that's not what was said because I would have asked for a time being someone had to be there. I was told now he is going to do the job for free. If he shows. This is unacceptable business practice and oddly I had used them before several years back and no problems. read more

My kitchen sink sprung a leak as I was washing pots and pans on Christmas night after feeding 15 guests... As they have in the past, Harry Barr Plumbing saved the day. Nick was informative, thorough and creative in his solution for a recurring problem. This company is truly a pleasure to do business with. read more

We woke up to a freezing house and a furnace that wasn't working. I called Harry Barr at 7am and in the middle of a pandemic, he arrived within 20 minutes and fixed the problem. Exceptional service and Harry was friendly and courteous. He ensured that the job was done within the social distancing guidelines so we were more than comfortable to have him in the house. He was also incredibly generous with the cost of his visit. I won't use anyone else moving forward! read more

I own a business in Wayne and needed Harry in an emergency -our toliet was not working. He sent one of his guys within a half hour and problem was solved. I have also used Harry at my home for new install of water heater, change out in a bathroom etc. Their work is exceptional. The men are through and clean up after the work. Would not hesitate to use these guys ever. Very Professional read more

Harry Barr is exemplary and runs a top notch service business in every respect. We have used them numerous times in the 9 years living in Wayne, and I won't go to anyone else for plumbing/heating needs. He and his staff are organized, timely, dependable, personable and, most of all, real plumbing/heating experts. Harry and his crew are simply the best service business I have ever dealt with as a homeowner. Every business could learn from these guys. When I have had an emergency, Harry or one of his team members made us a priority. If he has other pressing jobs and yours isn't an emergency, he sets a realistic timetable to get to your work. They don't sell you anything you don't need, and don't try to "fix" things that aren't broken to make a buck. A truly upstanding business. Just last evening, my heating system went haywire. Harry was at my house within minutes - WELL AFTER normal business hours. It turned out to be nothing but a homeowner blunder on my part. Not only did Harry provide above and beyond service, but this is probably the third time where no work was needed and Harry did not even charge me for his time/inconvenience of coming out after hours. I was grateful but also amazed that this kind of business still exists in 2017. Harry Barr Plumbing & Heating will ALWAYS have my business. Thank you, Harry. read more

My main sewer line cracked on Sunday night and began leaking raw sewage into my basement. I called Harry Barr at 8 a.m. Monday morning. The man himself and his son showed up and had the entire cast iron section replaced with brand new PVC by lunchtime. Quick job, good work, and the estimate was right around what I was expecting. A fair price for good work. read more

Professional, prompt, prioritizes appropriately. Highly recommend in a world where you're not sure who you want to let in your house, and whether they will do the job. read more

Harry Barr Plumbing is the BEST. Last year, we moved to a new home in Wayne that needed some updating with the plumbing but we also did some major renovations that involved plumbing as well. Harry personally came to our house to assess the work to be done and made recommendations based on his expertise that were very helpful. We had our laundry room moved from downstairs to upstairs, the fireplace converted to gas, a new sum pump installed, toilets and shower leaks repaired among other things. His team of workers are all excellent at what they do, show up on time, work efficiently and are extremely courteous. I have NO complaints about Harry Barr Plumbing and recommend them to anyone in need of plumbing work. read more

Called Harry Barr in the AM because my Furnace had stopped working, another plumber recommended Harry, because he would not be able to look at it until later in the day. Harry came pretty quick, was very professional and knowledgeable, and diagnosed the problem immediately, Nick (also very friendly and professional) came back later in the day with the new part and got my furnace working. My only issue with them is the cost, I thought it was too high for the service (I checked with a few people and they thought the same), I don't mind paying a little more for excellent service, but not when it's excessive. Update:Spoke with Harry, as previously stated, he is very friendly and professional, he explained the cost in more detail and after talking with him, I will definitely use him again if the need arises. read more

It took me a week to get it coordinated but my repair/replacement was not an emergency. Nick showed up at my house on time. He was clean, efficient, and did a great job. He was knowledgeable and not only did he explain everything to me, he's a real gentleman. Thanks for a job well done! read more

These folks truly are the best. I have never met a more honest and trust worthy company. This day and age it is hard to find a company that truly cares about the customer. This company truly cares about the customer!!!! When it comes to plumbing and heating make Harry Barr your first call. They are rated the top plumbing and Heating service for a reason. Honesty and trust worthiness. read more

Terrible and untrustworthy. Told us we had so much damage and that he had to notify the township because of regulations. It was such a nightmare. Something didn't sound right when he said he has to call the Township. We then got a second opinion and they said there's no work really to be done and told us we were going to be scammed. Unless he changed his ways, I would never call them again. read more

We have used Harry Barr Plumbing several times. Today we needed help with a clothes washer connection. I ran into Harry at the local bagel shop and he handled the interruption to his morning with good grace. An hour later one his guys (Fonzie) arrived with a trainee and they sorted us out. Good local service is important and these guys deliver. read more

Very quick to respond. Pricing fair and Nick knows what he's doing! We plan to call them for any future needs.

Quick to respond, fair pricing, very friendly and helpful. Only 4 stars because he wasn't able to fix my issue without it costing more than I have, but that's due to my house being weird and not their fault. read more

I called Harry Barr Plumbing and he came right away and his associate replaced the air vent in the boiler room of our basement.. While it wasn't a large plumbing job, Harry was very professional, efficient and has excellent problem solving skills. He's definitely knowledgeable and reliable in his field. I highly recommend him in the future for all my plumbing repairs. read more

We have used Harry Barr Plumbing since 1997 when we first moved to Wayne. He is extremely dependable and honest. When you call for service, Harry always answers the phone himself and is sincerely appreciative for your business. Every single time! His staff is very courteous, respectful and clean. Barr Plumbing is always there when you need them and Harry will never leave you hanging in an emergency. His business truly deserves a very big thumbs up on all counts. We feel very fortunate to have found him. read more

Harry Barr Plumbing destroyed the downstairs of our home causing thousands of dollars of damage. He installed a toilet in our upstairs master bathroom and neglected to seal the shut-off valve on the toilet. He also never sealed the baseboard heating in both upstairs bathrooms that he had installed. His mistake caused a waterfall to flow from the upstairs bathroom through the ceiling of our downstairs bathroom, creating significant water damage to our downstairs bathroom, the kitchen ceiling and adjoining living room walls. We had hired Harry Barr Plumbing to prevent floods not cause them. He openly admitted that it was his worker's error. However, he tried to bully me into agreeing to have him just patch up the ceiling and not to worry that there shouldn't be any water or mold damage. This was the farthest from the truth. Water had seeped through the walls and insulation down to the flooring and it was a mess. This was confirmed by experts who we had evaluate the situation so we would know how to proceed. We initially hired Harry Barr Plumbing to replace pipes in our upstairs bathrooms. When his workers were doing the work initially at our house, I noticed that they were always in a rush to get moving to the next job. The workers were constantly being interrupted by phone calls and text messages that completely distracted them. I believe this is what caused them to negligently forget to seal the baseboard heating and toilet. When you rush a job, errors happen. This showed me the company's total disregard and lack of caring. When Harry Barr confronted me after he caused flooding in my house, he said his reputation means everything to him. Well, if it did, he didn't show it because during the weeks his workers were at our house, he never once came to check on the job or the work being done. He filed a claim with his insurance carrier to report the damage he caused. We have yet to receive reimbursement from his insurance carrier. What's even worse was that he texted us to find out if we ever received his bill and obviously he's wondering when he is going to get paid. What nerve! After asking around, we learned that his insurance company is the bottom of the barrel. I guess, birds of a feather flock together. We were without a downstairs bathroom for over 3 mos. To top it off, our teenage daughter had foot issues and was to have foot surgery. She was immobile and any time she needed the bathroom she would have to crawl upstairs. We had move on this and layout more money upfront to get the bathroom done before she returned home from the hospital after her surgery. At the very beginning of the job, at his suggestion, we placed a "special order" for parts for our shower (the cost of $900 that had to be prepaid) from the plumbing supply company he told us to use in Wayne on Hamburg Turnpike. Mr. Barr sent one of his workers to pick them up. A few weeks went by before the parts were able to be installed. When they were to be installed, we could not find the parts that his worker said he supposedly delivered to our house. We showed him the invoice of the parts that were to have been picked up and they were nowhere to be found. Since the order showed that they were picked up at the plumbing supply store, we were stuck because we had already prepaid for the parts. One of his worker admitted to us that he didn't even check the box of parts he picked up to make sure all of the parts were there from the plumbing supply store because he said he was in a rush and he wasn't able to recall if all of the parts were actually there. Another one of the workers told us that they have had issues with this plumbing supply store and it happens all the time. Parts that would have cost us $900, ended up costing us $1600 because we had to replace the order (from another company). Had his company properly done its job, we would not have ended up spending money we didn't need to spend. Come to your own conclusion of whether you want to hire this plumbing company. read more
