Sewer Repair and Replacement

If you’re noticing slow-draining pipes, sewage smells around your home in Gainesville, or gurgling drains, you may need professional sewer repair. Waiting to address these issues can result in costly, time-consuming, and sometimes life-threatening situations. Instead, call on the plumbers at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® for sewer service. We’ll inspect and diagnose your sewer line, helping you understand why you’re experiencing these problems and what can be done to fix them.

What are some common causes of sewer line damage?

  • Shifting soil
  • Root Intrusion
  • Extreme temperature changes
  • Clogged drains causing backup
  • Pipe corrosion from age or caustic drain cleaners
  • Improper pipe installation

Wondering whether you should repair or replace your sewer line? Depending on the age of your system and if your sewer is beyond repair, sewer replacement may be necessary. Large cracks, significant root intrusion, and corroded pipes may indicate the need for a total sewer excavation and replacement. Don’t wait for another high water bill or that mysterious wet patch on your lawn to get bigger. No matter your issues, our professional plumbers will determine the best path forward with our sewer service, whether you need pipe lining, pipe cleaning, or a burst pipe replacement.

Common signs you need pipe replacement include:

  • Rust or corrosion on pipes
  • Yellow or brown stains in your bathtub or shower
  • White flakes in your water
  • Reduced water quality
  • Low water pressure

Hydro Jetting Services

Have you been dealing with slow-moving drains in your Gainesville home’s sinks, showers, and tubs? Standing water from drain clogs and buildup can be frustrating and stressful, and it can lead to pest infestations and water damage. That’s where hydro jetting services from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® can help. Getting routine hydro jetting from our hydro jetting plumbers helps keep your plumbing and pipes clean and clear, moving water and waste through your system and away from your home.

What is hydro jetting used for?

  • Clearing clogs and debris
  • Removing tree root intrusion
  • Cleaning sewer lines
  • Maintaining plumbing

Hydro jetting services aren’t for every plumbing system. Some pipes are too brittle and fragile for the high-pressure water that hydro jetting uses to clean pipe interiors.

Jeff Luppens

Excellent in every respect!

deborah moore

My consultation with your plumber, Kevin, was very pleasant and he was very knowledgeable and explained everything about my pressure tank issues. I have been searching for a plumber who understands pressure tanks on a well system and fortunately, I'm relieved to be putting my confidence in your services. I'm also going to join the service plan for my future plumbing, electric and HVAC. I'm beyond pleased by the convenience of having all of these services provided by one provider and in addition, receiving a discount on all the work as well! Thank you so much! Looking forward to working with you !

Amy Gardner

I would highly recommend Benjamin Franklin plumbing of Northwest Arkansas. Ethan was our technician and was so pleasant and professional to work with. We had a gas leak and BF sent Ethan promptly to our house. He was extremely thorough in finding any and all problems. He showed me everything he was doing and explained it in detail. He was nice enough to give us a phone number if we had any further problems. In addition, he gave us advice about how to stay safe in the future. He relieved a lot of stress for our family. I would not hesitate to call again.

Joshua Kostick

Great service! Cael arrived the same day, found the problem with our toilet, and had a replacement installed within a few hours! Polite and courteous, he was a pleasure to work with!

Anthony Basirico

Matt was a pleasure to have as my water filter installer. He took his time on the install and explained step by step on the installation procedure. He is a top notch technician. The job came out great. I am very pleased with the installation.

Debbie Middleton

A well-intentioned neighbor removed a stuck water hose from my front yard faucet and broke the water pipe in the process. He repaired the break with a shark-bite fitting, which worked for a few hours but started leaking. Well-intentions notwithstanding, I recognized I needed a professional and called Benjamin Franklin. Micah Moore arrived at the appointment time, assessed the damage, and made the repair: he removed the fitting, welded the pipe and installed a new faucet. Micah is skilled, knowledgeable, and personable. He made time to answer my questions and made me feel confident the repair would hold. It was a great experience and as an ancillary bonus, I learned about PVC vs poly and metal pipes and water pressure! Highly recommend.

Zulejha Mustafa

I had a wonderful experience! Their customer service was friendly and professional and they quickly scheduled my appointment. The plumber was knowledgeable, respectful, and explained everything clearly. The work was done efficiently with no hidden fees, making it a truly excellent service. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again!

Lori Johnson

Delta faucet hose was leaking and Seth creatively made it work while Delta sent us a new faucet. He was ready to put it in as soon as we got it. Great, friendly service

Alicia Berumen

I had an incredible experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. From the moment I called, their customer service was friendly, professional, and prompt. They showed up exactly when they said they would (which is rare these days!), and the plumber was knowledgeable, respectful, and clearly skilled at what he does. He took the time to explain everything to me, made sure I understood the problem and the solution, and got the job done efficiently. Not only was the work done right the first time, but he also left the area cleaner than he found it — which I really appreciated! It’s hard to find a company that truly values its customers and stands by its work, but Benjamin Franklin Plumbing exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend them to anyone needing plumbing help — they’re reliable, honest, and simply the best!

Kelly Bonny

Shawn was great. Polite, kind, and very good at keeping me updated. He did a great job and left the area nice clean.
