Named Forbes' Top Ranked Plumbing Company of 2024!
Windrush is an established residential community in Marietta, situated in the East Cobb area of Cobb County. The community is part of the network of well-regarded swim-tennis neighborhoods that characterize East Cobb's residential landscape — established subdivisions with strong HOA amenities, mature tree cover, and housing stock from the 1980s and early 1990s that now spans the 30-to-40-year mark. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Marietta serves Windrush and the surrounding East Cobb communities as part of our core service territory.
East Cobb subdivisions built in the 1980s — including Windrush — were constructed during a period when copper supply lines and slab-on-grade foundations were the universal standard in this region. Those systems are now 35 to 45 years old, in the age range where localized pitting corrosion on the interior of copper supply lines becomes a documented regional pattern across Cobb County. Pipe walls thin at their most vulnerable points over decades until pinhole leaks develop.
The pattern we see in East Cobb 1980s homes is consistent: pinhole leaks begin appearing in different locations over a period of months or years, rather than repeatedly at the same point. This is the defining signal of system-wide deterioration rather than isolated failure. Each repair addresses the current leak but not the underlying age of the pipe, which continues producing new failure points until the pipe system is replaced.
Windrush's wooded setting with mature hardwoods also means tree root intrusion into sewer lines is a service consideration for homes on larger wooded lots. Annual sewer camera inspection is a reasonable precaution for properties with significant tree canopy over the drain line route.

Ethan was excellent right from start to finish! He was punctual, analyzed the problem, wrote up an estimate of cost and time required and completed as quoted. He was extremely polite, communicated as project progressed as well upon completion. I would definitely request Ethan for future work and highly recommend him.

I have known and worked with John for many years. Recently, we had a major leak involving a failed water heater. John replaced it and also arranged and coordinated removal of water damaged drywall as well its replacement prior to installation of the new water heater. We are pleased with the outcome and appreciated his dependability and reasonable price.

Two pinhole leaks in different locations in an East Cobb home from the 1980s is the pattern most consistent with age-related deterioration across the copper supply system. When corrosion is localized, leaks tend to recur at or near the same spot. When they appear in different locations, the degradation is widespread across the pipe system rather than concentrated in one area. A whole-home plumbing assessment can confirm the extent of the corrosion. If it is system-wide — which is the most likely finding in an East Cobb 1980s home with this pattern — a repipe with PEX is the most cost-effective long-term solution. We provide flat-rate pricing in writing before any work begins.
Cobb County's water is soft, so a softener isn't a default recommendation here, though we do install softeners for homeowners who prefer the feel of softened water. The treatments most directly relevant to East Cobb are whole-home catalytic carbon filtration — which removes chlorine, improves taste and odor at every tap, and is gentler on skin and on the rubber seals and gaskets in your fixtures — and point-of-use reverse osmosis under the kitchen sink for drinking water and the trace PFAS compounds detected in the local supply. We are a Brita PRO authorized dealer and handle full assessment, installation, and ongoing service.
Call (770) 999-9871 or book online at any time. For non-emergency scheduling, we typically have same-week availability from our Marietta location. We provide flat-rate pricing before starting any work, and all jobs are backed by a full warranty. There are no hidden charges and no hourly billing surprises.
