Reviews
This review is long overdue. Like another person said, Alan was able to do things that others couldn't. He put in the rough plumbing for a new bathroom in our 1905 house in a way that worked far better than those proposed by a couple of other plumbers we got quotes from. Not only is he a very good plumber, but he's also personable and easy to work with. And his rates are quite reasonable. We would definitely use him again.
Finding a plumber that crawls under apartment buildings to fix a main sewer line is a challenge these days! Many plumbers I contacted for this repair said they strickly work on new construction projects. Except Burfitt! They do it all, and were very responsive and reliable, and did a great job. Alan was great to work with.
So we have a 1932 house with the original plumbing, and one of the original bathroom sinks leaked. Our previous plumber told us that it couldn't be fixed without ripping the bathroom apart, so for about 15 years we would just get it patched up but it would soon start leaking again, and so every couple of years we would have to get him out here for $150 a pop. We were going to do it again, but the plumber was getting ready to retire and didn't want the work, so a friend referred me to Burfitt. I texted him photos of the sink, he said we just needed a new faucet, knobs, and drainpipe, he ordered them for us without even coming over, then came over today with his assistant and fixed this and another problem. Good as new. We should have gotten him in years ago. And they said it couldn't be done!
I came home from work yesterday to a plugged kitchen sink that I made much worse by fixing it myself. I left a message for Burfitt around 8 pm and they responded first thing in the morning. Even better, they were able to get Alan there in just a few hours. He fixed the sink, the price was right, and he was super pleasant to work with. I'm so grateful it was such an easy process. Will definitely keep them as my go to when I need a plumber.

5 stars for Alan! I called them about 8:15 this morning. I was told they would arrive between 10 & 12, which they did. Alan diagnosed the issue with a tub drain, gave me an estimate, cleared drain, was friendly, explained things well and cleaned up thoroughly. Also replaced toilet flapper. I'd hired this company in the 70's to replace our service to the street. It is wonderful after all these years to find a company with the same honest & capable services.
Of course the water main to an apartment complex we manage broke on Thursday night at midnight. After calling several other service providers on Veteran's Day weekend, we got a rough quote from Burfitt. They were out the same day, had our tenants up and running around 6pm and their price was a right around middle of the price range he gave us.
Excellent work!

I can't say enough great things about Burfitt Plumbing! I had multiple plumbing issues that I had been putting off - nervous about what the cost would be. One of the issues was my water heater, not generating enough hot water anymore. My neighbor had the same issue around the same time, and his plumber replaced the whole water heater. Burfitt was able to just replace the bottom heating unit - saving me hundreds of dollars. The technician also took care of a leaky pipe that was attached to the garbage disposal and my broken bathroom drain plug. All this taken care of quickly, professionally and inexpensively and on a Saturday to boot! I wish I would have called sooner!
Thanks Burfitt Plumbing!!
They replaced our under ground service line because of leaks in the old pipe. Excellent service, Alan is so knowledgeable and professional. He was very responsive, always communicated and kept us informed of their progress. Highly recommend!
William, the technician they sent to my house to connect all our under sink plumbing after we removed our sink to re-do our counters was the rudest, grouchiest man! I had called before scheduling the appointment to get an estimate (which turned out to be way more than everywhere else). Unknown to me at the time, they charge based on the job rather than by the hour like most plumbers. Other plumbers were about $85/hr and the job ended up taking 1.5hrs to complete, but I was charged $337 (nearly 4 hours worth of time). When I tested the dishwasher and water filter, neither had water going to them. When I pointed it out, he rudely told me that he had connected the pipes he was supposed to, and if the water was turned off it was not his job to turn it back on. Umm... I think as a plumber that is precisely your job! I would assume when hiring someone to connect your pipes, that testing them to make sure they work is part of the process... One of the pipes was leaking (which it hadn't been before) yet instead of admitting faulty reconnection as I'm inclined to believe, he insisted I needed a new pipe and charged another $99 on top of my already exorbitant rate. He was EXTREMELY RUDE the entire time. The friendliest thing he did was after I gave im my credit card to pay, he told me I would have been better off buying a new garbage disposal, new pipes and doing it all myself for how much I paid him...yeahhh... thanks...
