Need Help Now? We Handle Plumbing Emergencies

Plumbing problems don’t check the clock, and neither do we. If water’s pouring out, a pipe bursts in the night, or something just feels off, call right away. We’ll talk you through what to do while a plumber heads over. When we arrive, you get a quick fix and real answers, so you’re not left worrying about what comes next.

Water Heater Replacement

Running out of hot water is frustrating, especially when it starts happening more often. Maybe showers feel shorter than they used to, or you notice the water never quite gets as hot as it should. In many Leawood homes, those little changes are signs that it may be time to think about water heater replacement. An aging water heater can still work, but it often works harder than it should. That can mean higher energy bills, uneven water temperatures, and a greater risk of sudden failure. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® helps you sort through those warning signs without pressure. We take a close look at your current system, talk through how it is performing, and help you decide if replacement is the right move. When replacement makes sense, we keep the process simple. Our plumbers help you choose a water heater that fits your household size and daily routine. Once installed, a new system can deliver steady hot water, improved efficiency, and fewer worries about unexpected breakdowns. The goal is not just new equipment, but reliable comfort you can count on every day.

Water Heater Repair

Sometimes the problem is smaller than it seems. If your hot water disappears suddenly, the temperature goes up and down, or you hear unfamiliar sounds coming from the tank, water heater repair may be all you need. Many common issues can be fixed quickly when they are caught early. Our plumbers take the time to figure out what is really going on. Problems like worn heating elements, faulty thermostats, pressure valve concerns, or sediment buildup inside the tank are common in Leawood homes. These issues often respond well to professional water heater repair and can help extend the life of your system. We keep the conversation clear and easy to follow. Before any work begins, we explain what we found and what your options are. If a repair will restore performance safely and affordably, we will recommend it. If repairs are no longer practical, we will explain why so you can make an informed decision. Either way, you are never left guessing.

Tankless Water Heater Installation

If you like the idea of endless hot water, tankless water heater installation may be worth exploring. Tankless systems heat water as you need it instead of storing it in a tank. That means no waiting for recovery time and no worrying about running out when multiple people need hot water at once. Many Leawood homeowners are drawn to tankless systems because of their energy efficiency and long lifespan. That said, tankless water heater installation is not the right fit for every home. Our plumbers help you weigh the pros and cons by looking at your household size, water usage habits, and existing plumbing setup. Installing a tankless system takes experience, especially when gas lines or electrical upgrades are involved. Our team handles those details carefully to ensure your new system operates safely and efficiently. When installed properly, a tankless water heater can provide consistent comfort, lower energy use, and long-term value. Whether you need water heater repair, water heater replacement, or are curious about tankless water heater installation, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® is here to help Leawood homeowners make confident decisions. With friendly guidance and dependable workmanship, we help you find the hot water solution that fits your home and your lifestyle.

Real Solutions for Leawood Homes

Homes in Leawood each have their own quirks, some basements get damp when it rains, pipes can freeze when it’s cold, and drains sometimes struggle after a storm. We’ve seen it all in this area, and we know what works. If you want to stay ahead of trouble, just ask about a plumbing inspection or a maintenance plan. We’d rather catch a problem early and save you a headache.

Nora Schallenberger

I called One Air Heating for a second opinion on my furnace drama. I have battling it since the first of December with another company. First off the second opinion was free! I did not know that! How Wonderful for this old lady! Cody came out same day....what a great guy and very knowledgeable of my furnace unit. After explaining my troubles, and he listened to all of them, he looked at the thermostat and the the unit. Turned out I need a control board, which of course, is back ordered. So.....he did a temporary fix, and checked to see if they had any boards at all for the unit in case the fix doesn't hold. Found an old board, but have decided to wait if the temporary fails. He came out on the 21st and as of the 24th, its still working. He even gave me his number and said if any problems give him a call. He even texted on friday to check in. Great Service for sure, I'm glad I called their number for the second opinion. Thanks so much Cody!

Ross Judice

Our experience was awesome with Mr JD Workman, Mr Luke , Mr Trey. They did a great job on our home. Workmanship was excellent and they explained what they were doing. The cost was very reasonable we found. More than $2300 lest then the other quote. Found a good plumbing company to do future work we may need!!! They cleaned up after themselves and put all the paneling they removed back. They were very polite. Miss Heather was very polite and helped us out with the pex piping of our house. We rated them 5 stars because they were!!!! Thanks for fantastic job!!!!

Doris Burson

David was very knowledgeable and very helpful. He took extra time to understand my faucet problem and researched options to help me get the part I needed.

Akeya

I had a great experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing! From start to finish, they were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. They kept me updated every step of the way and even provided clear before-and-after pictures, which I really appreciated. They did an excellent job installing handwashing sinks and a sink for my warming kitchen, and everything was completed with care and attention to detail. I want to give a special shout-out to Tyler and Jenna — they were absolutely amazing, patient, and informative. I also met the manager once (I’m so sorry I forgot your name!), but you were great as well. The whole team truly went above and beyond. What stood out the most is that they took the time to look up the plumbing codes for my childcare center, explained everything clearly, and educated me on the correct equipment that should be used and what should stay to remain compliant. That level of care and knowledge gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and knowledgeable plumbing company. You guys are great — thank you again!

Kevin

Cole is an amazing tech. He came over for an after hours call and was quickly able to identify and trouble shoot the issue with my water filter. I will definitely reach out to him again for any plumbing issues in the future.

Joni Light

Vinnie and Myles came promptly to fix our hot water system - not knowing what the real issue even was! As soon as they looked they had the system working within a few minutes. Additionally we looked at the overall system, which had not been maintained properly, and we got a much needed education. We'll be getting them back soon for future maintenance and new system. More to come. We highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. Customer service was prompt, courteous, educated, and pleasant.

Kirk Haney

We call ben franklin and got an immediate response. The plumbers were there in thirty minutes, figured out the problem, fixed the problem, and charged less than the estimate that I originally chose. Thanks to Seth for his expertise and his honesty.

Kristin West

Nery and Brandon installed our water heater and we're very kind to us, and we are happy with the results. They were on time and very nice to us.

B. Pitts

Great experience with Benjamin Franklin. Alex and Robert were friendly, professional and efficient in their work. They took time to do little thinks like cover their shoes, or take them off before entering. Even though I have hardwood floors, it was nice to see.

Robin “W” Braesicke

It was good until someone at the shop ordered the wrong water heater...little delay....they had problems wiring the hot water heater.... The work they did was top notch from what I can see. I was glad that they made sure that it was wired correctly, they took their time and did the job right the first time...will post any follow-up if necessary... The guys were polite, worked hard, got the job done...thanks guys I didn't want to stay in a motel a second night...Happy New Year...lol

Plumbing FAQs

What routine maintenance should I be doing for my Leawood water heater?

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Leawood, it’s a good idea to flush the tank once a year to clear out sediment, especially if your area has hard water. Check the pressure relief valve, inspect for rust or leaks, and make sure the thermostat is set to a safe temperature (usually around 120°F). Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your unit and keeps your hot water flowing efficiently. For peace of mind, consider scheduling a professional inspection with a local plumber.

How do I know if I need a Leawood plumber for my home's low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Leawood home, it could be a sign of a clogged pipe, leak, or a problem with your water supply. Try cleaning faucet aerators first, but if the issue persists, it’s best to call a licensed plumber in Leawood to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.

For most homes in Leawood, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups. If your property has older pipes, large trees nearby, or frequent slow drains, you may need service more often. Regular maintenance keeps your plumbing flowing smoothly and protects your home from unexpected issues.For most homes in Leawood, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups.

Are there plumbing upgrades that can help conserve water in my Leawood home?

Yes! Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your Leawood home. You can also install smart leak detectors and tankless water heaters for added efficiency. A local plumber can recommend the best options based on your home’s setup and water usage habits.

What are common plumbing issues in older Leawood homes?

Older homes in Leawood often face plumbing issues like corroded or outdated pipes, low water pressure, and frequent leaks. You might also encounter problems with old fixtures, sewer line deterioration, or poor drainage. A professional inspection can help identify hidden issues and recommend upgrades to keep your plumbing system safe and efficient.

What should I do to prepare my plumbing for winter in Leawood?

To get your plumbing ready for winter in Leawood, start by insulating exposed pipes, especially in unheated areas like basements and garages. Disconnect outdoor hoses, shut off exterior water lines, and check your water heater for optimal performance. It’s also smart to know where your main shut-off valve is in case of a frozen pipe emergency.

How can I tell if my sewer line is damaged in Leawood?

Signs of a damaged sewer line in your home include frequent drain clogs, foul odors, soggy spots in your yard, and gurgling sounds from your toilets or drains.
