Midtown is Atlanta's arts and high-rise district. The Woodruff Arts Center and the High Museum anchor Peachtree Street, the Atlanta Botanical Garden sits at the north end of Piedmont Park, and towers rise around Colony Square and the Arts Center MARTA station. Between them are older streets of homes and apartments, newer townhomes and thousands of condos. That mix means very different plumbing from block to block. Our shop is just up Piedmont Road on Lambert Drive.
We're The Punctual Plumber, and we put money on it. If we're late, we pay you $5 a minute, up to $300. And with flexible financing on larger jobs, the right repair doesn't have to wait.
Emergency Plumbing: Leaks into the unit below, water heater failures, sewer backups and no-water calls, including nights and weekends.
Condo & High-Rise Plumbing: Repairs inside your unit, coordinated with your building's management and rules, including shutoffs, access times and certificates of insurance.
Water Heaters & Tankless: Condo water heaters often sit in small closets, where a failing tank can leak into the units below. A compact tankless unit, electric or gas depending on the building, frees up space, never runs out and typically lasts around 20 years, against 8 to 12 for a tank. We'll check what your building allows, and financing is available.
Leak Detection & Repair: Finding the source of water in ceilings, walls and shared stacks, and fixing it fast before it spreads.
Drain Cleaning: Kitchen, bath and laundry drains cleared, plus main-line cleaning for townhomes and houses.
Water Filtration & Whole-Home Water Quality: In-home water testing, whole-home filtration, under-sink drinking water systems and sediment protection for water heaters, for better water at every tap and longer-lasting plumbing.
Commercial Plumbing: Restaurants, offices and retail along Peachtree and 10th Street: grease line cleaning, water heaters, restroom fixtures and backflow devices.
Property Manager & HOA Service: Scheduled maintenance, turnover repairs and emergency response for buildings and associations.
Toilets, Faucets, Showers & Disposals: Repairs and replacements, including valve cartridges and supply lines that fail in high-rise units.
Repiping: Partial and whole-home repiping for older houses and townhomes on Midtown's residential streets.
Water Pressure: Diagnosing low and high pressure, and replacing pressure-reducing valves in townhomes and houses.
Midtown's housing ranges from early 20th-century homes and small apartment buildings to townhomes and towers built in the last 25 years. In a high-rise, most problems start inside the unit: a water heater past its life, a failed supply line under a sink, a shower valve leaking into the wall. In a building, a small leak can quickly become a neighbor's problem, so speed and coordination with management matter as much as the repair.
Water and sewer come from the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management. In the older houses and townhomes, the issues are the familiar intown ones: aging pipe, clay sewer laterals and tree roots near Piedmont Park. In commercial spaces, grease, heavy use and code compliance drive most calls.
Your water is treated by the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management to meet federal drinking water standards. But by the time it reaches your tap in Midtown, it has traveled through miles of city mains and then through your own pipes, and in high-rises and older buildings where water travels through long shared risers before it reaches your unit, that last stretch matters. When we test water in Intown homes, we regularly find the taste and smell of chlorine-based disinfectants, along with sediment and rust from aging pipe.
That affects more than your drinking glass. It's the water you shower in, brush your teeth with, wash clothes and dishes in and cook with. Sediment also wears out the equipment you've paid for, including water heaters, tankless units, faucets, dishwashers and washing machines, and shortens the life of the plumbing itself.
Every visit we make includes a free test of your water for chlorine, and we'll show you the results before recommending anything. If you want a fuller picture, ask about testing for sediment and other issues too. Your options include:
Whole-home filtration: Filters every tap and shower in the house, reducing chlorine taste and odor, sediment and rust, for better water for bathing, washing and cooking, and less wear on pipes, fixtures and appliances.
Drinking water systems: Under-sink reverse osmosis or carbon filtration for cleaner-tasting water for drinking, coffee and cooking.
Sediment protection for water heaters: A sediment filter ahead of a tank or tankless water heater helps it run efficiently and last longer.
Replacing a condo water heater with a tankless unit, repiping an older Midtown townhome or handling a larger commercial repair doesn't have to wait. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Intown Atlanta offers flexible financing with monthly payment options, subject to credit approval.
You'll see the up-front price first, then choose how to pay. Ask your technician about financing on any job, or apply on our financing page before your visit.

Midtown calls often start with a ceiling stain or a call from building management. A water heater leaking into the unit below. A failed supply line under a vanity. A shower valve that drips into a shared wall. That's why our techs check your water heater's age, supply lines and shutoff valves on every visit, and work with your building to get water shut off and back on quickly. Our trucks are stocked, and most calls are fixed on the first visit.
In a condo or townhome, a small leak can quickly become a neighbor's problem. Call us if you notice:
Water stains on your ceiling or a call from the unit below
A water heater closet with rust or moisture at the base
A braided supply line that is bulging or more than seven years old
Slow, gurgling or repeatedly clogged drains
More than one fixture backing up at the same time
Hot water that runs out early or never gets hot enough
Damp spots, stains or a water bill that rises for no clear reason
On time: We arrive in the window we promised, in clean uniforms with shoe covers, or we pay you $5 a minute, up to $300.
Diagnosis: We find the root cause, using a high-definition camera on drain and sewer lines when needed.
Free water test: Every visit includes a free chlorine test of your water, with the results explained on the spot.
Up-front price: You get the exact price, with good, better and best options and financing available, before any work begins.
Clean finish: We complete the work and clean up before we leave.
There's no single price, because cost depends on where the problem is, how severe it is, the materials and the repair method. Replacing a toilet supply line is a quick visit. Replacing a condo water heater, coordinating shutoffs with building management or repiping an older townhome takes more planning, and financing is available. Either way, you'll see the full price before we start, with no meter running, and larger jobs can be financed with monthly payments, subject to credit approval.
The On-Time Guarantee: If we're late, we pay you $5 for every minute, up to $300.
Up-Front Pricing: You see and approve the price before any work begins. No meter running.
Flexible Financing: Monthly payment options on larger jobs, subject to credit approval.

Refind Vintage
We had our water heater repaired and had a new water filter system installed after the technician suggested it. He was friendly and factual. After his visit we had to have another repair man to set the water heater temperature. Now it is working fine.
Jeremiah Fisher
A full gas water heater installation -- quick install with courteous service. Jon Hare and Luke Stelly gave excellent advice and were finished with the install in less 3 hours (including purchasing the unit itself)! Thanks!
Derek Sharp
Mike did a fantastic job for us. He had a couple of items to work and he did so in a highly professional and caring way. I am so grateful for his time and expertise! Will no doubt call again when our home needs plumbing advise!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Service! Highly Recommend! I highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for all your plumbing needs, big or small! I recently needed to have a pop-up sink drain assembly replaced, and Bryson J. was the technician sent to assist me. Bryson was professional, knowledgeable, kind, and courteous throughout the entire process. He completed the repair efficiently, made sure everything was working properly, and left my bathroom clean and tidy afterward. It's refreshing to receive such excellent customer service! I truly appreciate Bryson's professionalism and attention to detail. Thank you, Bryson, for a job well done! I would definitely recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to anyone in need of reliable, quality plumbing services!

Absolutely the best. Chase made sure to clean up after installing the new dishwasher, cleaning the faucet screen and making sure everything worked correctly with no leaks.
kevin obregon
The service was exceptional. I appreciate finally finding a plumber who comes on time. Highly recommended.
Barbara Dennis
I am a new widow navigating a stressful plumbing issue. I met with Nick. He was the 3rd Plumber I was meeting that day. From the start he was friendly. Shook my hand. Asked what the problem was. I said I had a slow leak from the meter to my house but had no idea where it was. He explained how we could handle this issue. This is the 4th or 5th leak I have had! I decided to go for the full replace. It would be guaranteed for 15 years. So I did. Tripp and Nick showed up and both were professional, friendly and polite. They did an excellent job. Tripp went so far to get rid of the big black spider right next to my shut off valve in my basement! Goes above and beyond. After the repair they reseeded and laid down straw! From Adam in the office to Nick and Tripp was beyond pleased with the service. This company cares about their customers and it shows. Thank you Adam,Tripp and Nick!
Pablo Villanueva
Just had an old broken water heater replaced (30 to 50gallon) by Michael Gladstein. From The moment my wife and I met him, we felt confident in the entire company, appreciated his professionalism, how he took the time to clarify different options, notice we could have a larger tank; when other companies didn’t even give the option because the old tank was a 30g on second floor, with small space. He then installing it himself the next day with excellence. Really showing care for our home by through clean organized work, and his craftsmanship. Michael did great work from beginning to end! What’s stood out to me was that between the three quotes we got, Benjamin Franklin had the most competitive pricing. Only a few more Benjamin‘s difference for higher quality! Other companies quoted prices close to what Benjamin Franklin did but offered less. Highly recommend.
Stephanie Montgomery
Jacob with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing was absolutely fantastic! He showed up on time, was courteous, knowledgeable, and made me feel like I could actually trust a plumber in my house—which, let’s be honest, is sometimes harder to find than a leak! 😂 He was so great that even my dog liked him, and my dog is usually a pretty good judge of character. If he passes the dog inspection, you know he’s good people! 🐾 Professional, trustworthy, and friendly from start to finish. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, give this man a raise—or at least let him know he’s officially been approved by the household security team! Would absolutely recommend Jacob. 10/10 stars, two thumbs up, and one very happy dog! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Christel
They came out and inspected the old water heater and able to explain what was needed to bring a new one up to code, and while they were here they were able to shut off the gas valve to the hot water heater (which was antique) for my safety. They also told me what was needed for new duct work to the furnace. Very professional.
