Middletown is a small historic town at the southern end of Frederick County, known for Belle Grove Plantation, the Cedar Creek battlefield, and Laurel Ridge Community College nearby. It's a community where a historic town center gives way quickly to farms and rural homes, and that mix shapes the plumbing we do here.
Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Winchester serves Middletown on time, every time: if there's any delay, it's you we pay.
Every Middletown home has access to our full range of plumbing services. The menu is the same across our entire Winchester and Frederick County service area, and each service links to the national brand page with full details:

Commercial plumbing service for area businesses, restaurants, retail, and multi-family properties.
Middletown's plumbing reflects its rural setting. Homes in town may be on a municipal or Frederick Water connection, while many properties in the surrounding countryside rely on private wells and septic systems. Well water in this part of the Valley commonly carries the hardness of limestone groundwater, along with iron and sometimes sulfur, so treatment depends on testing your specific water.
The housing ranges from older homes around the historic core, with aging galvanized or cast-iron pipe, to rural farmhouses and newer builds. Septic systems are common on rural lots, changing how drain and waste-line issues are diagnosed, and cold winters bring frozen-pipe risk to the long, exposed runs rural homes often have.
We treat Middletown's historic-town homes and its rural well-and-septic properties with equal care, bringing genuine well and septic expertise to the country addresses that need it. Our stocked trucks finish most jobs in one visit, which matters out in the countryside.
if there's any delay, it's you we pay, $5 for every minute we're late, up to $300. See our guarantees.

we stand behind our materials, labor, and craftsmanship.
we answer the phone around the clock, every day of the year, with no after-hours fees, vital during a hard freeze, a well-pump failure, or a backed-up septic line.

your neighbors here in Middletown, supported by a brand named Forbes' Top Ranked Plumbing Company of 2024.
Club membership with annual safety inspections, leak checks, water heater and softener tune-ups, priority service, and discounts.
Rural homeownership rewards routine. If you're on a well, test your water periodically and keep your treatment maintained; if you're on septic, mind what enters the system and act on slow drains. Before winter, protect well houses and the long exposed runs rural Middletown homes tend to have. Frozen pipes are a leading cold-weather emergency here.

Israel checked the toilet for leaks at the water line and around the toilet base. He said he'd need to open the ceiling to check for leaks. He quoted me a price which was discounted because of my membership. Once the ceiling was opened, he checked for leaks and saw nothing. He flushed the toilet numerous times, ran water in the sink and shower. But found nothing. He suggested it could be a roof leak.
David Blood
PJ is an excellent plumber, and he is very personable. His competence level assured us he would solve our issue - and he did. The water running down our drain runs faster than a Philadelphia Eagle! Hurrah for PJ!
Linda Burns
I highly recommend this company. They were quick and responsive in scheduling my service, and the plumber they sent out was fantastic. Sometimes it’s hard to find a plumber, but search no more. Use them! I certainly will use them again. Most importantly, their prices are very reasonable and competitive.
Kelly Korpusik
Chris was fantastic! Diagnosed the issue and then fixed it. This was installed many months ago by Benjamin Franklin (totally different group of the company). Explained all that was occurring and then ensured I knew how to turn off gas to the unit and the house before he left. So kind and helpful!
Theodore Emmons
Mamadou was very professional, polite and informative in his inspection. Made sure he took his time and pointed out all the important items that were good but also main items that need proper to immediate attention. Very knowledgeable about his position in BFP. Thank you for sending this gentleman. Regards, Teddy E.
Alesia Burney
Mike did such an excellent job with the plumbing service. He assessed the problem then quickly and efficiently fixed the issue. He was very pleasant and helpful throughout the process. I highly recommend his services!
Michael M
We had David stop by for our annual plumbing review/pump flush and he was professional, quick, and courteous. He explained what he was doing at every step and made sure to answer any questions we had about general maintenance and plumbing related home ownership questions.
Dave Wilner
Steve was awesome. Came out on short notice to help figure out a leak source. Quickly diagnosed a significant issue across a number of our faucet valves, recommended several options, helped us choose the one that made the most sense, then returned as promised to do the work. Very trustworthy, reliable.
Brian Ridenour
Daniel was great!! He was very prompt and explained the workings of the new water heater. The company is awesome. Now you could find a cheaper water heater and cheaper labor but I tried one of those water heaters from the big box store and it failed after only 4 years. The ones that Benjamin Franklin sells are MADE IN THE USA instead of a foreign country. Give them a try, you won’t be sorry!
Dennis Sen
10/10, no doubt about it. Lucas was prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. We had an issue with our water heater that left us without hot water or heat this fall. He quickly diagnosed the problems, explained his findings in excellent detail, and got everything fixed. He also went the extra mile in a couple of ways I didn’t expect, which I really appreciated. I’d absolutely recommend Lucas!
