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.

Marsha Dennis

Technician was on time and professional. Juan explained what he was going to do and what would have to be done if the first procedure did not work. He also stated the price up front. He worked quickly and efficiently. The company sends texts to keep you updated and includes the picture of the tech. Reasonable for a Saturday.

Gary Stoe

David with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing did an outstanding job fixing a sink leak at one of our renovation properties. He was professional, efficient, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. The repair was done right the first time, which is critical when we’re on a tight timeline preparing a home for market. At Rapid Close Realty, we work with a lot of trades during our fix-and-flip and cash-offer projects, and David absolutely delivered. Highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing and will definitely use them again on future properties.

Kevin Rowell

A.J. (Andrew) with Benjamin Franklin conducted a thorough, professional inspection of the plumbing for a home we are buying in Siloam Springs. He provided a comprehensive, understandable explanation of the entire plumbing system from faucets to sewage and gave us a clear analysis of items needing immediate attention, those that can wait, and those that were functioning well. He followed up with a thorough cost analysis and timeline for repairs. A.J. was extremely courteous, trustworthy, and respectful throughout the entire time. He was very patient in answering all of our questions. We did not hesitate to contract with Benjamin Franklin to make the repairs as suggested. Definitely call them!

Amy Kernan

Alie Joseph did an excellent job fixing my toilet. He was thorough, showed me what was wrong, and even cleaned up after himself! I have already planned future jobs with him. My Papaw built this house in 1979. He always used Benjamin Franklin for his plumbing jobs. He said they were the best and they came back and proved it today. Everyone at the company was excellent. The lady who called me to schedule last night was so friendly. The lady who called me this morning was kind, and Alie was very friendly and kind. He was so knowledgeable about all aspects of home plumbing.

Israel Romero is very friendly and knowledgeable. We had our water heater replaced and he did a great job! I highly recommend Israel and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing!

dekota goode

I received great service. From speaking to someone with setting up appointments to my service tech fixing my issue and keeping me informed of the process step by step. Mat was great!

Lee Ann Hoffman

I had blocked pipes that I was unable to clear. My plumber thoroughly investigated the issue and determined that I had roots growing into the pipes causing blockage. He kept me informed during his investigation, provided me with pictures and clearly explained both what repairs were needed and what my options were. He gave me three prices / options to resolve the issue and there was no “hard sell” at any time. This is a bigger repair than I had hoped for, but I believe I am being treated fairly.

Ariana Martinez

Phenomenal First Experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. The lovely lady in the office was so patient and accommodating for me with my work schedule and some issues that were discovered prior. The tech arrived on time. Was friendly and thorough. He explained everything to us, what was needed, etc. and gave us options. Great experience.

Emily Magdics

Gustavo Rocha came out to help us with a pipe over the water heater that was leaking. He let us know that it wasn't just the pipe that had issues but the water heater itself (it was 20 years old and we knew it was on its way out). He was such a huge help in explaining everything to us and helping us to make the decision to have it replaced. Gustavo knows his stuff and was so kind and patient with all our questions and concerns. He has many years of experience and is an absolute pleasure to work with. If we ever need a plumber he's who I am calling (at least until he retires). Thank you Gustavo for doing such a wonderful job replacing our filter. The water pressure and heat is a very refreshing change! You are the best!

Pam Crooks

We had several sewage backups over Christmas, including while we had a house full of company. David Allen arrived quickly due to our emergency situations and fixed each issue, even working with the office to get us the best prices possible. He was knowledgable, sympathetic, and kept us informed. Highly recommend.

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.

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.
