Kyle was fantastic. My water heater started leaking and it was about 20 years old, so it was definitely time for a replacement. Kyle arrived right on time, explained everything clearly, and answered all of my questions without rushing. The whole process was smooth and professional, and I’m very happy with the new installation and the service overall. Highly recommend!
Ronald Chappell
I am very pleased with the repair of my sewer line by Aaron Preston and his team. The bid was far below the other competition and then with the money saved I had him replace both bathtubs faucets. And still was cheaper than Bud's bid. We are happy to have Benjamin Franklin as our new plumbers
Jeanne Lafoe
Both Ilija and Dylan were great! Ilija first came as we did not have hot water. He handled that problem efficiently and then checked all 4 bathrooms, kitchen and laundry room. Ilija identified quite a number of items that needed replacement and since our home is older it was very good to be made aware of those issues. Dylan then came a couple of days later and fixed all of the problems in one day! He worked all day and did an excellent job while treating our home with respect and went above and beyond to help us. Excellent company and Ilija and Dylan both super!!

We had a water leak; Ben Franklin responded quickly and repaired the leak on February 2, 2026. The 1st technician noticed a few other areas of concern. This being are secondary home, we thought it a good idea to have these issues addressed. We scheduled the balance of the repairs to be completed on another date. The 2nd technician repaired the balance of the issues. Both Kevin and Marshall were on time and great to interact with! We did have a stumble on the billing side, but this matter was resolved with a call to Elliott. Thank you to all!
Synnamon Smith

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing did an excellent job installing my garbage disposal. They were the first company to get back to me when I was requesting a quote. They gave me a quote over the phone, and their prices were straightforward and extremely reasonable. Jacob Morris did a great job. He was fast, cleaned up everything, and even provided some helpful information for future garbage disposal purchases. I highly recommend this company and only wish I had found them sooner.

I called a month ago for an issue, they came out gave a free estimate and gave advice to try and repair on own. They checked on us to make sure we didn't have any more issues. We called them back out due to the same issue, they came out again and David provided excellent service. I was expecting an astronomical bill but they were so affordable I will definitely be using them in the future for any of our plumbing issues!!!

I had a pretty major plumbing issues throughout the whole house. It was due to really poor plumbing work done by the previous owners of the house and it just kept causing more and more issues until we had a catastrophic break and standing water in the crawl space. I was able to get Evan out the same day I called and he fearlessly got in the crawl space and investigated the issues. Turns out we needed our entire plumbing repiped due to leaks and properly set up to promote better drainage I had great service from the whole team that came out include Shawn and Mitchell. Mitchell went above and beyond to explain everything and make our lives easier while we were dealing with a repair that needed several days to repair. Ill be contacting this company forst for any future plumbing needs. I'll tell you that for free.
To keep your water heater running smoothly in Opelika, 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.
If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Opelika 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 Opelika to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.
We are available 24/7 to take your call for emergencies. Our appointment hours are listed above.
For most homes in Opelika, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups. If your property has older pipes, large trees nearby, or frequent slow drains, you may need service more often.

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.
Older homes in Opelika 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.
To get your plumbing ready for winter in Opelika, 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.
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.
