We had the wonderful experience of meeting Oscar and his team! Veteran-owned, value-based, and high-quality work. Their attention to detail is the difference maker. They ensure they are on time, and they are licensed and bonded.
I had an excellent experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing in Huntington Beach. Brandon was professional, punctual, and incredibly thorough. He took the time to explain the entire process clearly, which made me feel confident and informed every step of the way. The service was top notch from start to finish and was done on time, efficient, and respectful of my home. I highly recommend them if you're looking for honest, reliable plumbing service. Thanks again, Brandon!
Benjamin Franklin Plumbing provided excellent service from start to finish. The technician arrived on time, was professional, and clearly explained the work being done. The job completed was efficient with fair and transparent pricing. They're a new and upcoming business with motivated and humble personnel who are eager to serve the community's plumbing needs in all areas. Overall, a dependable and customer-focused company I would gladly recommend.
This is a great outfit, the plumbers here are really on top of their game. Use this company for all of my properties. Do not hesitate to give them a call if you have any plumbing repairs!
James Peden came to my house and repaired a leaking tub faucet. His service was a refreshing experience. He is friendly, professional , efficient, effective and a real asset to Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. James work ethic should be a good example for his helper in becoming a true professional like James. Congratulations to Benjamin Franklin Plumbing on a good hire.
We initially called with what we thought was a simple concern about water hammer with pipes in the attic and also to have the hot water heater checked. Scott came out to troubleshoot the issue and discovered several underlying issues that the original plumber (not Benjamin Franklin) left behind during the 2020 water heater install. Scott was very transparent with options available and ultimately we decided to have him install a new hot water heater. He was very professional while working his rear end off to drain/remove the old water heater from the attic, fix the piping issues and install a new water heater. He answered any questions we had along the way and we really appreciate his hard work, detail-orientation and friendliness throughout the process.
Caleb was the man that did our plumbing and an excellent job. He was very pleasant. Very very knowledgeable. Efficient couldn’t have asked for anyone better.
Jeff and the staff truly are a company who care about complete satisfaction from the beginning to the end. The staff is courteous, the work is completed by brilliant technicians and the management followed up to ensure great final results. The price was appreciated. May God continue to bless them always 🙏 ✨️.

William Owen’s was great. He unclogged my toilet and my sisters bathroom sink. It might of been earlier than expected but the company did a good job texting me to let me know he was on his way
With the Benjamin Franklin Plumbing team, you get the best of both worlds—local licensed plumbers backed by a trusted national service. Because all of our locations are independently owned and operated, we live and work in the communities we serve.
As a result, our owners and their employees are more committed to providing excellent experiences and helping out our neighbors. We hire talent right from the community, boosting the local economy by keeping dollars in our own backyard. That's worth being proud of.
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.
