My toilet had been running and it caused my water bill to be 4x as high in one month. Brandon was able to look at my toilet and replace it on same visit and within a couple of hours.

Tim Kafantaris

Eric was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to clearly explain the work being done and made sure I understood everything. I would highly recommend Eric to anyone looking for quality service and professionalism.

Kathleen Weir

Called at 8:30 - Benjamin Franklin Plumbing arrived at 11:15! Problem solved by noon! Friendly and competent service!

Saqib Baig

I wanted to share my appreciation for the excellent service Brandon and his team provided. Brandon arrived on time, responded quickly, and handled the work with professionalism, friendliness, and care. What stood out most was the speed and convenience of the service. Brandon assessed the leakage damage, cleaned the spout, scraped away the old caulk, reinstalled the area, and sealed it properly for waterproofing. Please extend my thanks to Brandon and his team for their reliable work and excellent customer service. I would definitely recommend their service and will call again for future needs.

Cheri Carver

Keith came promptly, worked quickly but we paid $709 for a water shutoff, and a small piece of PVC pipe under our sink that took 40 minutes to do. $210 of that was because it was an emergency visit.

Brenda George

Chase was exceptional!! Jared was so helpful as well!! This company came out to check our heating and cooling systems, clean our hot water heater, and patiently answered a bunch of our plumbing and duct-cleaning questions. As owners of an aging home, we truly trust them and deeply value their expert opinions on what updates we need. The level of professionalism cannot be surpassed! From wearing booties so they don’t drag dirt into the house to sending texts with pictures of the technicians before they arrive, every detail made us feel safe and cared for. We trust them completely with our home, will definitely continue doing business with them, and are already recommending them to all our friends. They are simply the best in the area!

Cynthia V. Bell

The service was timely and professional. I really appreciate that Chuck treated my home with respect. He not only wiped his feet, but he put on booties to protect my floors. He did a thorough inspection before he gave me the estimate for the service needed. Because of his courteous explanation of what was needed to get the job done correctly, I would highly recommend him.

Plumbing FAQs

What are the safest first steps to take when a sink or tub drain starts backing up?

Stop running water to that fixture, then try a plunger if it is a sink, tub, or shower. Skip harsh chemicals since they can damage pipes and make a clog harder to remove. If the backup keeps coming back, a plumber can clear the line and confirm there is not a deeper blockage.

How do I know if my clog is just in the P-trap under the sink or deeper in the drain line?

If only one sink is slow and other drains are fine, it is often close to the fixture, like the P-trap or the branch line. If you remove and clean the P-trap and the sink is still slow, the clog is likely farther down and may need professional tools to clear it fully.

What is the difference between snaking and hydro jetting for drain cleaning?

Snaking is designed to break through or pull out a blockage, but it may leave residue on the pipe walls. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to wash buildup off the inside of the pipe, which can be helpful for heavy grease, sludge, or recurring buildup. A plumber may recommend a camera check first to choose the safest option for the pipe condition.

When is a camera inspection worth it for a recurring drain problem?

A camera inspection is useful when a clog returns quickly, when clearing only works for a short time, or when you want to confirm what is actually causing the slowdown. It can pinpoint buildup, broken sections, or misaligned piping so the fix is targeted instead of guesswork. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing in Tom Bean can use camera inspections to help identify the cause before repairs.

Can hard water in Grayson County contribute to slow drains?

Yes. Mineral scale from hard water can gradually narrow sections of piping and catch soap scum and debris more easily, especially in bathroom drains. If you notice frequent buildup and slower draining even after basic cleaning, a plumber can recommend a cleaning method that removes scale safely and helps reduce repeat clogs.

What should I avoid putting down the kitchen sink to reduce clogs over time?

Avoid pouring grease, oil, and fatty food scraps down the drain, even with hot water. Starchy foods like rice and pasta can swell, and coffee grounds tend to collect and form a dense sludge. Using a sink strainer and wiping greasy pans before washing can make a big difference.

What are the best practices for using a garbage disposal without clogging the drain?

Run cold water before and after using the disposal, feed small amounts at a time, and avoid fibrous items like celery, corn husks, or onion skins that can tangle. Eggshells and stringy peels can also build up in the line. If clogs happen often, it may be a drain issue beyond the disposal and worth a professional look in the Tom Bean area.
