Named Forbes' Top Ranked Plumbing Company of 2024!
Ocee is a well-established neighborhood in Johns Creek, Georgia, situated in the 30005 zip code in the southeastern corner of North Fulton County. Ocee is a highly sought-after community of established single-family homes with a vacancy rate that is consistently among the tightest in the region. The majority of Ocee’s residences were built between 1970 and 1999, with additional construction through the 2000s. This housing age profile makes Ocee one of the communities in North Fulton where plumbing service demand is most consistent and where the specific issues associated with aging copper plumbing and slab construction are most prevalent.
Homes built between 1970 and 1999 in Johns Creek and the Ocee area are now 25 to 55 years old. This range spans multiple plumbing material eras: older homes from the 1970s may still have original copper or even some galvanized sections; homes from the 1980s and 1990s are almost uniformly copper with slab foundations and are in the prime window for pitting corrosion-driven failures; and homes from the late 1990s are beginning their first significant service cycle.
Fulton County’s water is drawn from the Chattahoochee River and treated at the Tom Lowe Water Treatment Plant in Johns Creek — directly serving this community — using chlorine as the disinfectant. The 30022 zip code that covers much of the Johns Creek and Ocee corridor is one of the areas where pinhole leaks and slab leaks are among the most consistent service patterns we handle, driven primarily by the age of the area’s 1980s and 1990s copper plumbing.

We had Christian from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing service come out to fix a leak in our home. He was patient, explained the procedure thoroughly, on time, and cleaned up the mess. We were pleased with his work.

Love the updates! Everything works perfectly!. The family is so thankful for the new complete water pipes lines, the new waterless tank, the toilet tank repair and most of all the new tub and tiles! The sink doesn’t backup anymore and the water taste so so much better! The metal taste is gone! The toilets don’t flush themselves anymore and the rattling of the pipes doesn’t exist anymore! Their master plumber is awesome; he’s worth every penny spent and more! Gerald, Ryan and team did beyond our family expectations! 5 stars

José was very knowledgeable. He verified that the low flow problem with my old faucet was due to the faucet and not in the house plumbing before installing the new faucet that we had bought a couple of days earlier. My wife and I preferred the design of the new faucet, and José eliminated our worry that the new faucet might not fix the low flow problem. The new faucet is leak free and works great.

Christian our house to diagnose an issue. The water department called and said we were losing 1 gallon per minute of water, continuous use. Christian Came twice with one service charge. He discovered That we had two toilets that were each causing continuous usage. Together, the two toilets were equaling A loss of 1 gallon a minute! For a fair price He fixed both toilets And eliminated the issue. He was polite, caring, honest and prompt!

Johnathan has been outstanding so far as still have final phase to go. He grasped concept of what we wanted and helped bring it into reality. Johnathan has communicated well and made sure we understood each step as work has progressed. Also kudos to Zach and Tony for their hard work in getting it done! In a follow up review Johnathan met to check on work done so we could move on to Step 2. Details were discussed, and we are moving to the next phase. Thanks to Johnathan for continuing to work with us and guide our project successfully. Very satisfied to date.

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Savannah Metro recently completed the plumbing work for our bathroom remodel, and we were very pleased with the results. They re-piped the bathroom efficiently, kept us informed throughout the process, and delivered quality workmanship. The team was professional, respectful of our home, and made the entire process stress-free. We would gladly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable plumbing services.
For homes built in the 1980s and 1990s — which represent the majority of Ocee’s housing stock — the most consistent issues are copper pipe pinhole leaks, slab leaks in supply lines embedded beneath the foundation, and aging water heaters. The 30005 zip code sits within the Fulton County water service area, and the age of the copper pipes — now 25 to 40 years old — is the primary driver of the pinhole leak pattern we see throughout this area. Multiple leaks in different locations over a short period is the key signal that corrosion is systemic rather than isolated.
The Tom Lowe Atlanta-Fulton County Water Treatment Plant in Johns Creek treats the Chattahoochee River water that serves Ocee and most of North Fulton County. The treated water carries chlorination byproducts and a free chlorine residual typical of municipal supply. For homeowners interested in improving drinking water quality and reducing disinfection byproduct exposure, a carbon filter or reverse osmosis system installed at the point of use under the kitchen sink is the most practical approach. Fulton County’s 2024 water quality report shows TTHMs and HAA5s within compliance but at the higher end of the range.
Yes. Water service line replacement is a common larger-scope job throughout the Johns Creek and Ocee area, particularly for homes built in the 1970s through 1990s with original galvanized steel or older copper service lines. The water service line runs from the municipal main at the street to your home’s main shutoff and is the homeowner’s responsibility from the meter inward. Signs that a service line needs attention include persistently low water pressure throughout the home, an unexplained water bill increase, or soft wet patches in the yard between the street and your foundation. Where site conditions allow, we use directional boring to install the new line underground without open trenching — preserving your driveway, lawn, and landscaping. Flat-rate pricing before any work begins. Call (678) 833-2754.
