I came home to a waterfall in my kitchen! Water was raining from upstairs (where my water heater is). I panicked, I called random family members because I didn't know what to do, I shut off all the electricity in my house, I was all over the place lol. I googled "black owned plumbers near me" and Burris & Sons was at the top of the list, with a five star rating. I called them, and Mr. Burris himself was at my home within the hour! He was such a nice and kind human being. He took one look at what was going on and told me that it was just a valve replacement. Thank God because I was assuming that I needed an entirely new water heater. The service was fast, efficient, cost friendly, and Mr. Burris was a nice guy to chat with. I highly recommend them, and I want to thank Burris & Sons for their work in the community.

Mr Burris showed up immediately after we spoke. Mr Burris is knowledgeable on whatever is needed for plumbing, heating and air conditioning. I had 3 previous (not to be named) competition inside to do the repairs. All were money grabs! I dismissed them ALL! I knew what needed to be completed. Mr Burris listened to my concerns and did his due diligence for me. I remember him coming to my parents home when I was growing up; he is a legend. Never told my parents anything wrong, ALWAYS came even in an emergency to make repairs. I am second generation using his expertise now with issues around my home. Very very glad he is still around! Thank you Mr Burris for coming to my aid. I will be calling in the future for ANYTHING else that arrises with my HVAC needs.

I contacted Burris & Sons for plumbing services and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. I recently bought a new house and have since discovered many items in need of repair. Not only did he do an incredible job quickly resolving the issue with my backed up sink, he also educated me about ways to address the issue myself in the future. He was kind, offered wise and encouraging words, and even gave great advice about servicing my fireplace on his way out. I have plenty of notes from his educational visit! The entire experience was so positive, especially being able to get him out to take a look in my home the same day the service was requested. I will 1000% be using him in the the future for home maintenance needs!

  • V. Smith

As a first-time customer, I was very impressed with Mr. Burris’ professionalism, knowledge, and efficiency during the entire service appointment. Mr. Burris checked our furnace and gave a thumbs up for the unit’s excellent working condition. Pricing for service was reasonable, and I am appreciative for the valuable information shared and money-saving tips offered. In addition to Mr. Burris’ work ethic, we enjoyed his humor and conversation as well. Thank you for your service, and we look forward to setting up our annual A/C maintenance in Spring of 2024.

  • Sia Kelly

Tears of joy! LITERALLY! Spent the night without heat, made a mistake and took the first company available and they wanted to charge me $500 (money I don’t have). I called Mr Burris, he came fast, fixed my problem even faster , and was so inexpensive! I literally started crying in front of him because I thought me and my children would be without heat. He was so nice, very informative, so generous, and compassionate. An extremely genuine person sent directly from God! He is good at what he does! Hands down!! I won’t EVERRRRR call another company again!!

  • LaShay West

We had an emergency concerning our toilet this evening and called Burris and Sons, after a google search. We were given a two our time window, but to our surprise, Mr. Burris arrived within 45 minutes. Not only was he punctual, we found him to be knowledgeable and professional, as well. He solved our problem quickly and gave us instructions on how to prevent the problem from occurring again, and also how to prevent other plumbing related problems in our home. We were very pleased with his services and will be using him again in the future.

  • Patrice Ziegler, CPA

My hot water tank went out (again) and I thought I needed to replace it. I called so many technicians and they told me it would cost $1,500 to $2,000. I got in touch with Burris & Sons and he called me back, came out the same day and saved me a lot of money. Turns out I didn't need to replace it, it just needed a repair. 2 hours later my family had hot water again and Mr Burris checked and maintenance my furnace. He was awesome and kept me laughing the whole time. Call him if you want great quality service!!!!

  • Aprella Johnson

I called this company this morning and they responded immediately. My hot water tank was flooded and the sensor did not work. Mr. Burris was professional, personable. He took his time to ensure I understood the problem. He was able to quickly provide a resolution. Now I have hot water without having to replace the tank. The cost to replace the part and dry out the tank from the flood was affordable. I would definitely recommend this compnay especially if you need immediate service.

  • E Brown

Mister Burris was an Angel in disguise!!! He knows exactly what he is doing and doesn’t bring any nonsense with him. He fixed my clogged sink in maybe 30 min at a very reasonable price. He cleaned up the mess that I offered to clean up after he was finished and told me I must have never worked with a professional before! And I believe him‍♀️ Saved his number and will be using his services and recommending them to anyone seeking go forward. Thank you again Mr. Burris !!

  • Carlos Santiago

I placed a service call to Burris & Sons for a plumbing issue I was having. Mr. Burris responded to my call within an hour or less and was on site earlier than expected. I was very impressed with Mr. Burris' professionalism and chatting with him on the personal side as well. Our plumbing issue was fixed within an hour we got our kitchen sink back and leak in basement fixed. Reasonable pricing, excellent and prompt service. I highly recommend Mr. Burris-Burris & Sons.

  • AnovaLisa Dragonfly

I've been calling on Mr. Burris for all of my furnace and plumbing needs for at least 2 years. He is so skilled and experienced that I call him "The Furnace Whisperer". I really appreciate that he troubleshoots the possible small causes first, before automatically assuming it's something big - which often ends up saving money on little fixes. I hope he lives forever, because I don't know who else I'd trust to be as responsive, fast, reasonably-priced, and good.

  • Jamila Lowe

I was absolutely devastated that my sump pump stopped working and I had water overflowing out of the sewer. I called several plumbers to no avail. Then Mr. Burris calls, I tell him my issue and he tell me to listen very closely to his instructions and he told me to simply unplug and replug the pump and WALAH it turned on like magic. I really appreciate Mr. Burris because I was ready to replace a sump pump that didn't need to be replaced.

  • Stephanie Thomas

I called Mr Burris yesterday and he was at my door today! He was energetic, friendly and offered suggestions on how to avoid future problems. He was affordable and actually priced cheaper than his initial estimate! I was previously told that my clogged drain would entail digging up my yard or sewer work out to the street. Mr Burris had it fixed within an hour and didnt even disturb my plants. 5 star service!!! Thank you Mr Burris.

  • Eva Maria Lewis

Mr. Burris was an extreme help in identifying the source of a leak and pointing us in the direction of someone else who could offer a specialized skill to fix our issue. He offered unconditional support and reassurance, refusing to charge us since he himself was unable to fix the issue today. We are satisfied and grateful to have a concrete course of action moving forward. This company just gained a future repeat customer!

Papa Burris is an amazing old school guy. With him, it's not all about the money. He has saved me 1,000's of dollars.

  • Laura Bell

I had a great experience with Burris & Sons Heating, Cooling & Plumbing. They were extremely prompt, and fixed the problem immediately. It was a simple fix, and I appreciated being offered the opportunity to have any other plumbing issues looked at while they were at my property. I also got a quick lesson on how to take care of future issues myself. Not plumbing related, but also dog friendly!

  • D Slavinski

Mr Burris initially talked me through how to do the plumbing fix on my clogged sink on my own, thus trying to save me money. I followed everything he said to do, but there was still a problem and it was obvious a professional was needed. He came out same day, and the issue was fixed within the hour. He was polite, friendly, and educational as well. I appreciated all he did. Thank you.

  • Gwendolyn Davis

I had contacted Burris and sons for emergency services. My sump pump and sewer pump went out at the same time. Sewer water was backing up through the drainage holes. Mr Burris came out and changed both of my pumps. He was professional and arrived at the time he stated he would. He also advised me as to how to to maintenance on my pumps to keep them running properly.
