Drain Repair & Cleaning

If you notice water around your ankles in the shower or you’re always stuck waiting for your sink to completely drain, you may need drain cleaning for your home in White Bear Lake. Before you pick up chemical drain cleaners, call in the professionals. The Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® team provides comprehensive drain services that get at the root of the problem. Whether it’s a build-up of scum, oils, toothpaste, wipes, hair, or other materials, our plumbers will provide you with lasting solutions. Using DIY cleaners can damage your plumbing and end up costing you more money over time.

Common signs of a clogged drain include

  • Bad odors
  • Toilet is gurgling or bubbling
  • Water backs up into your home

Hydro Jetting

Drain cleaning is best performed as part of regular plumbing maintenance rather than as a reaction to a sudden clog. One of the best methods is hydro jetting service, where we use a specialized water jet to blast away the buildup. Annual hydro jetting service cleans the interior surfaces of pipes and pushes out gunk, limescale, grease, hair, and other debris that causes slow clogs that worsen over the course of weeks or months. However, if you’ve skipped plumbing maintenance or have a sudden clog from a tree root, flushed toy, or other obstruction, call right away. Our hydro jetting plumbers can clear it out with this fast, eco-friendly drain cleaning solution. Your plumbing system will be back in action in no time, all without the use of damaging chemicals or temporary patches that leave material behind in your pipes. Call Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® and speak to our hydro jetting plumbers in White Bear Lake. We’ll determine if this is the right solution for your needs and restore your slow, clogged drains to like-new condition!

Pipe Installation & Repair

Are you struggling with your home’s piping in White Bear Lake? Maybe you’ve seen rust-colored stains in the tub, discolored water from the faucet, white flakes in your water, poor water pressure, or even persistent leaks. These could all be signs you need repiping. The experts at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® have extensive experience in pipe replacement and installation, so you can rely on us. Our plumbers are highly trained, punctual, and professional with every job they complete.

What could happen if you delay pipe repair or replacement?

  • Sudden pipe failure

  • Pest infestations

Don’t stress over your next repiping project. Work with the team that has your back. We’ll send someone to your home quickly, fully prepared with everything they need to inspect your home’s plumbing and give you an accurate diagnosis. Maybe you just need pipe repair rather than whole-home pipe replacement. We’ll be able to tell you, giving you peace of mind the entire time. With our transparent communication and pricing, you’ll be glad you chose us for your pipe installation.

Leak Detection & Repair

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® is the team you need for plumbing leak detection that prevents unnecessary damage to your home.

Plumbing FAQs

Are tree roots a common cause of sewer problems around White Bear Lake?

Mature trees and older sewer lines are a common combination in many White Bear Lake neighborhoods. Roots look for moisture and can work into small cracks or joints in the pipe, leading to slow drains, recurring clogs, or sewage backing up into tubs and floor drains. A plumber from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro can run a camera through the line, clear roots with the right tools, and suggest repairs if the pipe itself is damaged.

 

How can I tell if low water pressure in my White Bear Lake home might be from a hidden leak?

If pressure suddenly drops in several fixtures and you hear water movement when taps are off, see damp spots on walls or ceilings, or notice a higher than normal water bill, a leak is likely. You can also read your water meter, avoid using any water for a short time, and see if the reading changes. When those signs show up in a White Bear Lake house, call Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro so a plumber can use leak detection tools to pinpoint the issue without unnecessary damage to your walls or floors.

 

What is hydro jetting and when might I need it in White Bear Lake?

Hydro jetting is a drain and sewer cleaning method that uses a high pressure water stream to scrub the inside of pipes. It is useful in White Bear Lake homes with heavy grease buildup, scale from minerals, or root intrusion that keeps coming back after basic snaking. Before recommending hydro jetting, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro will evaluate your pipe material and condition to be sure the line can handle the pressure and that this approach is the best fit.

 

How does hard water in the White Bear Lake area affect plumbing fixtures and appliances?

Mineral rich water can leave spots on glass and fixtures, shorten the life of water heaters, and cause scale inside pipes that narrows openings over time. In White Bear Lake, this often shows up as poor shower performance, cloudy dishes, and heating elements that fail earlier than expected. Testing your water and installing the right filtration or softening setup with help from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro can protect your plumbing and help fixtures stay looking clean.

 

What should I do if a boiler problem leaves my White Bear Lake home without heat?

Check that the thermostat is set to heat, confirm the system has power, and look for any obvious error lights on the boiler. Do not open sealed panels or attempt repairs yourself, since boilers can involve gas and venting risks. While you wait for Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro to visit your White Bear Lake property, close off unused rooms, keep doors and windows shut, and use safe supplemental heat only as directed by the manufacturer.

 

What simple plumbing changes can help cut water use in a White Bear Lake home?

Small updates like installing low flow shower heads, fixing dripping faucets, upgrading to efficient toilets, and adding aerators to older taps can save a surprising amount of water. Regularly checking outdoor spigots, irrigation lines, and hidden areas such as utility rooms for leaks also helps. If you want a plan tailored to your White Bear Lake property, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro can recommend upgrades that improve efficiency without sacrificing comfort.

 

How often should commercial properties near White Bear Lake schedule plumbing inspections?

Busy restaurants, offices, and multi unit buildings around White Bear Lake benefit from at least yearly plumbing inspections, and high use facilities may need more frequent checks. Regular reviews of restrooms, floor drains, water heaters, and backflow devices help prevent shutdowns and protect customers and staff. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of North Metro can set up a schedule that fits your type of business so you stay ahead of leaks, clogs, and equipment failures.
