Bath sits in the limestone country that defines much of the Lehigh Valley, so borough and well water alike tend to be hard, making softeners and treatment among the most-requested upgrades to protect water heaters, fixtures, and appliances from scale. Homes on the borough's rural edges may rely on private wells, while the older homes in town may carry aging galvanized pipe and cast-iron drains worth repiping.

Like all of the valley, Bath's cold winters make frozen-pipe protection important, and its full-basement homes need reliable sump pumps with battery backup against snowmelt and spring rains. The surrounding limestone bedrock can produce sinkholes that stress buried water and sewer lines, and mature trees send roots into aging laterals, making prompt, capable service valuable in this close-knit borough.

Brennie Brackett

Made appointment to pinpoint leak in shower head. Turned out it was the valve which needed replacing. Hugo was great. Ordered it and returned the following day to install. He also shared information about flushing out our tankless water heaters and addressing excessive pressure coming into the house. We are checking with the builder before we schedule those additional jobs to see if there is any warranty on our home.

Mark Katzman

Hugo came on time. Fixed problem.

Donna

Angi recommended Benjamin Franklin Plumbing with a 5-star rating. Repairman, Wilson did a great job. We had a leak in a waterline in the front yard. Excellent service. He was professional, knowledgeable, and worked in a timely manner. Afterwards, he cleaned up the work site and did a safety inspection. I would definitely recommend this company and Wilson 😃

Rich Dunham

★★★★★ Exceptional service from Ethan and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing in Lisbon! I called just before closing and they had someone out to my home first thing the next morning. Ethan was fantastic - very polite, professional, and efficient. Pricing was very upfront before any service was provided, so there were no surprises. The job was completed within an hour! Exceptional customer service from start to finish - I also spoke to the office manager and everybody was very polite. It’s GREAT to have and know this company is serving the North Country! Thank you! Highly recommend!

Jim O'Callaghan

We were very blessed to have such an expert as Mike come to our house to troubleshoot our hot water heater. The man is a consummate professional, has decades of experience, knew exactly what he was doing, did what he needed to do, and we couldn't be more pleased to have had this absolute expert come to evaluate our water heater. As soon as we met him, we knew we were in good hands. He'll be back in 2 days to replace the hot water heater. Thank you so much!

William Rosshirt

Great! Andrew was friendly and knowledgeable. Came out an hour after I called and got my water line fixed up. He also let me know how to protect it from future problems. I'm a happy customer

Justin Faulkner

Great communication when trying to schedule and when in route. Answered my questions and explained options before starting. Completed the work, verified it was fixed and cleaned the area when he was done. (Kitchen sink clog - more than 25’ from the sink)

William Whitehouse

Justin did a great job unclogging my kitchen sink. I tried to do it myself and evidently it went up the vent at the T instead of going down into the clog. Hopefully it will not clogged again but if it does and I can't get it I will be calling again. This is the 2nd time I've used Ben Franklin Plumbing and am happy the the fast response and courtesy of the plumbers. I recommend Ben Franklin Plumbing to anyone I know needing a plumber.

N Peterson

Chris is very upbeat and personable. He showed up on time and was very knowledgeable and got everything done the same day that we needed repaired and replaced. I’m very pleased with his work and would highly recommend Chris for any future plumbing projects.

Jorge Hernandez

Jordan is amazing! He went out of his way to get the job done. Professional top-notch the best I’ve seen in a long time I would recommend and make sure you ask for Jordan.M

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my Bath home's water hard?

Very likely. Bath sits in the Lehigh Valley's limestone country, so borough and well water alike tend to be hard. A softener and treatment protect your plumbing; we test and advise.

Is my Bath home on a well?

Some properties on the borough's rural edges are on private wells. We service water pumps, pressure tanks, and treatment, along with municipal-water homes in town.

Should I repipe my older Bath home?

If it has corroding galvanized pipe or failing cast-iron drains, repiping is a lasting fix. We inspect and recommend honestly, with up-front pricing.

Can sinkholes affect my plumbing here?

They can. The surrounding limestone can produce sinkholes and ground movement that stress buried water and sewer lines. We inspect and repair or replace affected lines.
