Anthony was was very thorough and also able to do the job in a shorter amount of time than the estimate. Great quality and attitude and performance. Price was on point, and continuing to have trusted reliable service is so very important, especially in an old house. This was a lot of work for 2 people but Anthony got it done solo! Thank you!!

The company saw that we needed fast service and they sent out two technicians as soon as they could. David and Luke are the best. They explained everything clearly and politely. They worked quickly and neatly and installed our new garbage disposal with great efficiency. They also interacted with us with respect. David and Luke are two fine young men. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing should be commended for hiring such capable technicians. We shall use this company for all of our plumbing needs in the future. A++

In many homes, the main shutoff is near the water meter, along an exterior wall, or where the main line enters the house. Turn the handle clockwise to stop the water (or rotate a lever valve a quarter turn so it is perpendicular to the pipe). If the valve is stuck, leaking, or hard to reach, a licensed plumber can replace it so you can shut water off quickly when you need to.
Most wipes do not break down like toilet paper, so they can build up in drain lines and cause clogs over time. If you want fewer backups, stick to toilet paper only and keep wipes, paper towels, and hygiene products out of the toilet.
Chemical drain cleaners can damage some pipes and seals, and they can make a blockage harder to clear if the product sits in the line. If a plunger and simple mechanical cleaning (like a small drain snake) does not solve the problem, it is usually smarter to call a plumber for professional drain cleaning.
That banging is often water hammer, which happens when flowing water stops suddenly and the pressure jolts the pipes. Fixes can include securing loose pipes, adjusting water pressure, or adding water hammer arrestors. A plumber can pinpoint the cause and stop the noise before it leads to leaks.
Cloudy water is often trapped air in the line and typically clears after a minute. Discoloration can also happen when plumbing is disturbed or sediment gets stirred up. If the issue keeps happening, affects multiple fixtures, or comes with an odor or taste change, it is a good idea to have a local plumber inspect the plumbing system.
If the home is older, has had recent renovations, or you notice slow drains, stains, or past leak repairs, a plumbing inspection can help you avoid surprises after closing. An inspection typically checks visible supply lines, drains, fixtures, shutoff valves, and signs of hidden problems.
High pressure can stress pipes, hoses, and fixtures, and it can shorten the life of appliances. A quick first step is to use a pressure gauge on an outdoor spigot to see if the pressure seems excessive. If it is consistently high, a plumber may recommend adjusting or installing a pressure-reducing valve to protect your plumbing.
Backflow protection helps keep contaminated water from flowing back into clean water lines, especially with irrigation systems, hose bibbs, or certain plumbing setups. Requirements vary by area and system type, so the safest approach is to have a licensed plumber confirm what applies to your property and handle any needed testing or installation. If you want help from a local team, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing can walk you through the options without making it complicated.
