Great plumbing company that helped with my water heater leak
Great company. Helped diagnose and fix problem quickly
The company saw that we needed fast service and they sent out two technicians as soon as they could. David and Luke are the best. They explained everything clearly and politely. They worked quickly and neatly and installed our new garbage disposal with great efficiency. They also interacted with us with respect. David and Luke are two fine young men. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing should be commended for hiring such capable technicians. We shall use this company for all of our plumbing needs in the future. A++
These guys came out did an amazing job. They started with the diagnostic found what the issue was, got the parts ordered, which were surprisingly under warranty.very knowledgeable about tankless water heaters which is apparently rare. Many other shops tried to get me to install a completely new tankless water heater from a different brand at a price over $8000, stating the one that I have is useless for the house that I am in. The brand that I’m using was installed by the home builder.
Victor, came out today and did an amazing job he was very polite, personal and honest. I would definitely recommend him and Benjamin Franklin plumbing any time. Thank you for sending Victor again..
Tony gave me amazing service today and I am beyond grateful. He was incredibly kind and walked me through the situation and my options. Not only did he fix my issue quickly he also gave me piece of mind answering any other questions and concerns I had that were out of scope of the issue I was currently dealing with. I will continue to use Benjamin Franklin again and always request Tony. 10/10 experience, and very affordable straight up pricing. I needed a win today, thanks again Tony!!!
