Chris F. from Benjamin Franklin plumbing has been very patient and informative about the work that needed to be done in our sewer system. He made sure everyone did what they were supposed to do or he came by and took care of it himself. He made sure we had options and skilled people for what they did not do. All in all we are very pleased with the project and its completion.
Chris gave us transparency, honesty and over the top service. Benjamin Franklin was a thorough top of the line choice. We had to replace our tankless water heater from the original one when house was built 5 years ago because the original installer did not have the filter on the system, so everything was burned up. We also have had very hard, gritty water and decided to do the water softener all at the same time. Again, they were honest, transparent and not pushy/salesy. It was soooo appreciated!
Pablo Cabrera was very prompt and extremely helpful. He did a good job of installing the shower head and made sure everything worked as expected. In addition to this, he went out of the way to help with some minor repairs. We are extremely pleased with his service.
Todd was amazing and definitely worth trusting with your plumbing! He was patient and knowledgeable and was just as motivated to find a solution as we were. He even took the extra time to come back through the house to wipe down all the surfaces he touched! This was extra appreciated since it’s currently cold & flu season. We will absolutely be trusting Todd with any plumbing questions or issues in the future.
What an excellent job was done! The plumbers were very knowledgeable, communicated very well, Letting us know exactly what they did and how they did it! The cleanup was excellent! I could not have had a better experience!! They ran a camera to see if there were any issues and where the issues were and then they did the Jet stream cleaning, put in a clean out. I highly recommend Benjamin Franklin plumbing!
I have a membership with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, and I can honestly say they are the best option. They are incredibly fast and reliable whenever something needs to be fixed at home. In my case, a toilet broke, and Kenith arrived very quickly to replace it. His service was exceptional, extremely professional, efficient, and he was also very friendly. I highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. Having the membership is absolutely worth it for the peace of mind and outstanding service they provide.
Josh and his intern were very professional and friendly. They took the time needed to do a thorough job. Josh did not even get phased when I accidentally sprayed him with shower water. I would definitely call Benjamin Franklin next time I need a plumber.
We had a couple leaking pipes in the basement, we called and were able to get an appointment quickly. The tech, Karus did a great job investigating and fixing both quickly. Very professional, honest, and cleaned before leaving. Much appreciated!
Victor did an outstanding job for me. He was polite, friendly, careful of the residence and his work was flawless. I would give him 6 stars if they were available.
I am so happy with the work Mr. Gustavo Rocha has done, which was a challenging water heater. After his work was done, he made sure everything was working properly and efficiently. He took the time to explain everything clearly and easy to understand what problem I was facing. I definitely recommend Franklin services to any other families or friends. Thank you Mr. Gustavo Rocha.

Anthony J Zarzaca
Owner
Mr. Zarzaca has over 25 years experience in mechanical and general contracting. He and his wife, Jean-Marie Zarzaca purchased Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of Charleston in 2017 with the goal of rebuilding the organization and transforming it into the very best service plumbing organization in Charleston. Since July of 2017, we have replaced all but 2 employees from the original 5 and have grown to a family of 15 employees including 1 dispatcher, 1 office manager, 7 high quality technicians and 6 plumbing apprentices taking part on our apprenticeship program to teach the trade to the next generation of BFP Plumbers. When Anthony is not working with the business, he enjoys the area beaches with Jean-Marie, is a gourmet chef, coaches youth football in Mt. Pleasant and supports his three children's travel sports.
Derek McDonnell
Field Operations Supervisor
Derek is the newest member of our team here at BFP. With over 25 years in the trade, Derek comes to us originally from Boston, Massachusetts by way of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. As a leader at the Ben Franklin franchise in PA, Derek worked both in the field and ran operations. He is an outstanding plumber and diagnostician of hard-to-see problems. New to the Low Country, he, his wife and family are learning all of the amazing things that Low Country Living has to offer. When not working, he and his wife support their son's high school wresting career, the beach and exploring the area.
Ricardo Solorzano
Site Superintendent
Ricky, as he is known to us and customers across the Low Country came to us in Late 2017 as our third hire in the rebuilding process. He moved to Charleston from South Florida where he has worked in plumbing for the last 20 years. We have been extremely fortunate to have Ricky on our team as he has made a complete transformation from new construction plumbing to service plumbing where he has built great relationships with his customer base and successfully graduated his assigned apprentice to a service technician in 18 months. Rick os an amazing woodworker, husband in father of three children.
Debbie Tolbert
Business Manager
Debbie came to BFP mid way through our very tumultuous first year in business. Since that time, Debbie is the organizing force of our office and a steady hand in an emergency service business that is reactive by its nature. Debbie handles all of our HR, accounting and just about anything else needed to keep the company growing. When she is not in her office at BFP, Debbie and her husband are either enjoying the beach or running after her family and three incredible granddaughters.

Jason "Dalton" Stanley
Technician
Dalton is one of only 2 employees left from the company we purchased in mid-2017. An apprentice at that time, he worked with several different technicians and learned the detail of the trade from multiple perspectives. After a 2 year apprenticeship, Dalton was promoted in 2018 and has thrived in the lead role. As a rare native son of Sullivan's Island SC, Dalton loves everything about the Low Country, hunting, fishing, his dogs, his family and his beloved Clemson Tigers.
