In 1872 the Township was organized and had an assessed valuation of $20,296.00. The Missouri Pacific Railroad laid its rails through the area in 1883, and the town was platted that same year. A Petition was made to the Butler County Commission to incorporate the City of Benton on January 6, 1909.

I had an issue this morning with drainage from water softner and Josh was sent out to take care of the issue. Immediately from his first call he was quite professional. When he arrived, he let me explain the exact issue and allowed me to vent my frustration. He was so polite in his responses to me and assured me he will fix the problem asap, which he did very quickly. Super professional and proficient. He's such a happy person!! Great job Josh!!! If every employee was like you, the service industry would be perfect!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Matthew Stover from Ben Franklin Plumbing, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Matthew was professional, responsive, and attentive. He listened carefully to my questions, offered helpful suggestions, and explained everything clearly. He arrived right on time, completed the work efficiently, and delivered excellent results. His customer service was outstanding—friendly, respectful, and committed to making sure I was completely satisfied. I highly recommend Matthew and Ben Franklin Plumbing for anyone in need of reliable, high-quality plumbing services.

We had the pleasure of getting Tom to help us twice. He knows his profession well and shares in detail the problem and price up front, so there are no surprises. Give Tom a raise. It is well deserved!!!
Lon Schultz
Austin walked us through step by step selecting the right on-demand tankless gas water heater for our home. His professionalism and knowledge was exceptional, as well as his concern that we understood everything. We are so happy that we had the opportunity for Austin to educate us on the product and we are proceeding with his recommendations.

The best asset of Benjamin Franklin is Israel Rodriguez. Izzy’s attention to detail, his professionalism, and his friendliness makes a terrible plumbing issue easier to deal with. He is in one word, “Awesome”. On another note, Cathy, the nice young lady that answered my after-hours call, “thank you for your kindness, and your scheduling expertise”. Lastly, to the sarcastic young scheduling man who answered the phone at the branch when I had a question, you need to treat people with more respect and perhaps ask more questions about how you can represent your company better as your attitude was just sad at best.

Andrew was our technician today, as our toddler flushed something and clogged our pipes. He was very thorough and communicative throughout the process. 5 stars :)

I cannot express how grateful I am for Ben Franklin Plumbing. My dad’s water heaters pilot would not light and the tech came and told us the vent was condensing water and causing the firebox to be wet. He fixed it within an hour and the charge was extremely awesome considering the timeline they completed the job. From me calling to them closing the service ticket was same day. Almost within the morning alone. Thanks again.

I recently had my HVAC unit installed by One Hour Heating and Cooling, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From the very first phone call to the final installation, their professionalism truly stood out. The team arrived right on time, worked efficiently, and left my home spotless — something I really value when it comes to service work in my house. Their professionalism extended beyond just showing up and getting the job done. Every technician was courteous, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain each step of the process. They made sure I understood how everything worked before they left, which gave me complete peace of mind. Customer service was top-notch as well. I never felt like “just another job” — they genuinely cared about making sure I was comfortable with the installation and happy with the end result. What really set them apart from other companies I contacted was their willingness to work with me on financing options. Where others simply said “no,” One Hour Heating and Cooling went the extra mile to find a solution that fit my budget. That flexibility made this entire upgrade possible for me. If you’re looking for a company that values professionalism, punctuality, and exceptional customer service — and is willing to work with you to find the right financing — I highly recommend One Hour Heating and Cooling. They exceeded my expectations in every way

Hector DeJesus, repaired the water treatment system by installing a new electric panel on one of the filters and rechargeable the another. He (and his team) were very professional and spent time explaining the working of the entire water treatment system. Additionally, also informed us on the Laundry Pro system, which we are considering as a possible addition to the washing machine. Overall, very satisfied with Ben Franklin Plumbing and have use other associated companies (Sparky Electric) for our home generator system.
