Comprehensive Plumbing Services in Big Timber

Every Big Timber home has access to our full range of plumbing services. The menu is the same across our entire southwest Montana service area, and each service links to the brand page with full details:

24/7 Emergency Plumbing

Around-the-clock emergency service dispatched for Big Timber homeowners facing burst or frozen pipes, sewer backups, water heater failures, sump-pump failures, or no-water situations, day or night, all winter long.

Frozen & Burst Pipe Service
Frozen-pipe thawing, repair, and prevention, the defining southwest Montana winter service. We thaw and repair frozen and burst lines, and help prevent them with pipe insulation, heat tape, and proper winterization of vulnerable runs in crawlspaces, basements, garages, cabins, and outbuildings.
Water Heaters & Tankless
Water heater repair, replacement, and installation, including tankless systems, cold mountain incoming water and mineral sediment work Montana water heaters hard, making yearly flushing, replacement, and high-recovery or tankless upgrades popular.
Boilers & Hydronic Heat
Boiler repair, installation, and replacement for the many southwest Montana homes, cabins, and buildings heated by boilers and hydronic radiant systems, keeping you warm through a long mountain winter.
Sump Pumps & Basement Plumbing
Sump pump installation and repair, plus basement bathrooms, backwater valves, and drainage, essential for the full basements that Montana's deep frost line makes standard.
Wells, Well Pumps & Water Treatment
Well pump service, pressure tanks, and water pumps, plus water softeners, filtration, and treatment for the many rural southwest Montana homes on private wells, addressing hardness, iron, sediment, and the arsenic and nitrate that can occur in this region's groundwater (well-water testing recommended).
Whole-Home Repiping & Pipe Repair
Pipe repair and whole-home repiping, we replace the aging galvanized and cast-iron pipe common in the region's historic homes and mining towns, plus water service line and leaking pipe repair.
Sewer, Drain & Hydro Jetting
Sewer line repair and replacement, drain cleaning, and hydro jetting with camera inspection, clearing cottonwood and tree roots, grease, and scale from aging lines.
Gas Lines
Gas line installation and repair for furnaces, boilers, water heaters, ranges, fireplaces, and outdoor grills and fire pits, installed and tested safely by licensed professionals.
Fixtures, Outdoor & Disposals
Faucets, toilets, showers, sinks, bathtubs, and garbage disposals repaired and installed, plus outdoor plumbing and frost-proof hose bibs and yard hydrants built for Montana winters.
Commercial Plumbing
Commercial plumbing service for the shops, offices, restaurants, resorts, ranches, and businesses across southwest Montana.

Big Timber's ranching-and-river character shapes its plumbing. Its older town homes often have aging galvanized or cast-iron pipe worth repiping, while its surrounding ranches and river properties are on private wells and septic, so well-pump service, pressure tanks, well-water treatment for hardness, iron, and sediment, and septic-aware service are core here. Homes on the town system still contend with hard water and scale, making softeners and filtration valuable.

Big Timber homes are built on basements and crawlspaces, as Montana's deep frost line makes standard, not the slabs of warm climates, so sump pumps, basement plumbing, and freeze-safe service lines matter. Above all, this is frozen-pipe country: long, cold winters beneath the Crazies make pipe thawing, repair, insulation, and winterizing hose bibs, well houses, and outbuildings the season's defining work, and boilers and hydronic heat are common.

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
