Bob Hancock

In our new home the water softener did not appear to be working. The plumber from Ben Franklin found the plumbing lines were reversed. He corrected the problem and now it works properly. We found David to be highly professional and personable and we would highly recommend Ben Franklin Plumbing

Barbara Haris

They were terrific! Turned up on time and quickly identified the issue - Ethan was back on Monday to do the job - was a long sewer pipe that had been replaced but never removed - it was rusted out and fouling the air in the basement- the work was quick and efficient at a fair price - I recommend them to everyone! Thank you Ethan

Sue Clapp

Elid totally resolved our problem (leaking toilet) in a timely and professional manner. He identified the need to replace both mechanical parts inside the tank and the wax seal at the flange. It was a great relief to have this work completed after three days of having water in the bathroom floor. Thank you, Elid! You are an outstanding representative for Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.

Amanda Sutherland

I’ve had Benjamin Franklin Plumbing out to my rental property a handful of times over the last six months, and they have consistently been fantastic to work with. Every technician who has come out has been prompt, kind, and professional. Our most recent technician, Justin, was great to work with. He was extremely patient, walked me through troubleshooting and helped me understand the most practical and cost-effective ways to address the issue. Highly recommended!

Alex Todd

Brian from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing was fantastic! This was my first time taking advantage of the free annual plumbing checkup included in our plan, and I'm so glad I did.

Donna Eichelberger

The plumbers in this job were extremely professional in their work and explanation of the procedures used to repair the toilet. Also the piece of pipe with the shutoff valve was expertly replaced. Everything that was done was thoroughly explained to our complete understanding. We are very satisfied with the work done on our home. The next time we are in need of a plumber, we will be happy to ask for this individual. Thanks again for the wonderful job with the plumbing job on our home. It was a great joy and a wonderful experience to have this job done by you. 1

Plumbing FAQs

What routine maintenance should I be doing for my Charleston water heater?

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Charleston, it’s a good idea to flush the tank once a year to clear out sediment, especially if your area has hard water. Check the pressure relief valve, inspect for rust or leaks, and make sure the thermostat is set to a safe temperature (usually around 120°F). Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your unit and keeps your hot water flowing efficiently. For peace of mind, consider scheduling a professional inspection with a local plumber.

How do I know if I need a Charleston plumber for my home's low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Charleston home, it could be a sign of a clogged pipe, leak, or a problem with your water supply. Try cleaning faucet aerators first, but if the issue persists, it’s best to call a licensed plumber in Charleston to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service in Charleston?

We are available 24/7 to take your call for emergencies. Our appointment hours are listed above.

How often should I schedule drain cleaning for my Charleston property?

For most homes in Charleston, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups. If your property has older pipes, large trees nearby, or frequent slow drains, you may need service more often. Regular maintenance keeps your plumbing flowing smoothly and protects your home from unexpected issues.

Do you offer plumbing financing in Charleston?

We have built relationships with several lenders to ensure our customers are able to restore functionality in their homes. Ask your technician about your financing options.

Are there plumbing upgrades that can help conserve water in my Charleston home?

Yes! Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your Charleston home. You can also install smart leak detectors and tankless water heaters for added efficiency. A local plumber can recommend the best options based on your home’s setup and water usage habits.

What are common plumbing issues in older Charleston homes?

Older homes in Charleston often face plumbing issues like corroded or outdated pipes, low water pressure, and frequent leaks. You might also encounter problems with old fixtures, sewer line deterioration, or poor drainage. A professional inspection can help identify hidden issues and recommend upgrades to keep your plumbing system safe and efficient.

What should I do to prepare my plumbing for winter in Charleston?

To get your plumbing ready for winter in Charleston, start by insulating exposed pipes, especially in unheated areas like basements and garages. Disconnect outdoor hoses, shut off exterior water lines, and check your water heater for optimal performance. It’s also smart to know where your main shut-off valve is in case of a frozen pipe emergency.

How can I tell if my sewer line is damaged in Charleston?

Signs of a damaged sewer line in your SC home include frequent drain clogs, foul odors, soggy spots in your yard, and gurgling sounds from your toilets or drains.
