Ryan Mullins Blues

Mike was great, very professional and great at his craft.

Scott Robinson

Great experience with this company and technician Dave!-- We had to do a waste and overflow repair in our bathtub when our drain shoe got broken. Our house is on a concrete slab and we were told by a previous company that we would probably need to replace our whole tub. So we called around to try to find another option. It was already later in the day, but Benjamin Franklin Plumbing sent someone within an hour. Dave came out and said he could fix it no problem. He had to get some parts, but was able to come back first thing the morning after and had it done in less than 2 hours. He showed us everything he did and that there was no leaks. Very kind and courteous. He even cleaned up before leaving.

Miles Dillard

Great job !

Rose Cain

Very fast and friendly. Dave was great!

Scott Johnson

We had Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Intown Atlanta out for a whole home plumbing inspection and found out our water heater is 12 years old and on borrowed time. They walked us through everything, explained our options, and never pressured us into replacing it. We’ll definitely be calling them when we’re ready.

Christopher Johnson

We had Ben Franklin Plumbing of Intown Atlanta come out to check the hard water at our Oakhurst home. They tested our water, explained everything clearly, and never tried to pressure us. Which is a welcome surprise. We’ll most likely be moving forward with a whole home water filtration system. Great experience, and we’re glad to have them serving the Intown area. Highly recommend!

Brendan Hackett

If you have teenagers you know the struggle with hot water! We were advised by our neighbors in Oakhurst, to try these new guys out. Wow. Great service! We were losing hot water too quick. They came out, inspected everything, answered all our question and recommended making the switch to tankless. We appreciate they weren’t pushy and helped us understand the options. Really impressed with the service and we’ll def be using them for installation when they open in a couple of weeks.

Derrick Taylor

In my experience this is a very professional company, they did the job fast and good!!!

Renee Ward

Our water heater suddenly quit at our house in Stone Mountain, so we called Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Intown Atlanta. From the first phone call to the installation, everything was calm and easy. They showed up when they said they would, wore cover to protect our floors, replaced the water heater, and cleaned everything up before they left. While they were here, we talked about a couple of remodeling projects we’re hoping to do over the next year. They gave us some really helpful advice about the plumbing and things to think about before we even start. It was nice getting ideas without feeling like we were being sold anything. We’ll definitely be calling them back when we’re ready to start those projects. We're really happy we found them.

I’ve been a customer of Trey’s for decades and he is nothing short of awesome. He is skilled at diagnosing exactly what the issue is and rectifying it. He is not one of those guys that sells you a bunch of unnecessary nonsense to make a buck. He is definitely about great service and long lasting relationships. What more could you ask for?

Plumbing FAQs

What routine maintenance should I be doing for my water heater?

To keep your water heater running smoothly, it is 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.

How do I know if I need a plumber for my home’s low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your 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 continues, it is best to call a licensed plumber to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service?

Yes. We are available 24/7 to take your call for emergencies. If you are dealing with a burst pipe, severe leak, overflowing toilet, sewer backup, or sudden water heater problem, our team is ready to help.

How often should I schedule drain cleaning for my property?

For most homes, 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. Regular maintenance keeps your plumbing flowing smoothly and helps protect your home from unexpected issues.

Do you offer plumbing financing?

Yes. We have built relationships with several lenders to help customers restore functionality in their homes. Ask your technician about available financing options.

Are there plumbing upgrades that can help conserve water in my home?

Yes. Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your home. 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.

What are common plumbing issues in older homes?

Older homes often face plumbing issues like corroded or outdated pipes, low water pressure, and frequent leaks. You may 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.

What should I do to prepare my plumbing for winter?

To get your plumbing ready for winter, 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 proper performance. It is also smart to know where your main shut-off valve is in case of a frozen pipe emergency.

How can I tell if my sewer line is damaged?

Signs of a damaged sewer line include frequent drain clogs, foul odors, soggy spots in your yard, and gurgling sounds from your toilets or drains. If you notice these warning signs, schedule service before the problem becomes more serious.
