Jimmy Ford

Installation was done quickly and professionally. My old water heater was replaced and the new unit relocated to a better location with minimal interruption of service. The installers were knowledgeable and polite. Happy to have hot water again.

Tee J

Carl the technician that was sent to our house was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He fixed our issue easily and provided us with information on how to prevent it from happening again. I'd highly recommend him personally to anyone needing any plumbing done in their house. Ty for great service

Michael

A lot of companies don’t recognize the importance of the initial contact. In our case it was Erica who was unbelievably pleasant and caring on the phone. Next, our technician Dave was courteous, competent and very easy to communicate with. Most importantly, the biggest impact he made on us at the end of the day was not the work he performed, rather he discovered an expensive gold bracelet in the trap of our bar sink and returned it to us promptly!

PJ Whiteley

Craig was very thorough and explained the bad news to me very nicely. I was shocked at the $5,000 price. So I asked perplexity how much to replace a grinding sump pump. I learned Craig gave me a fair price. I will use him again on my 6 rentals.

Joseph Odom

Responded quickly and professionally. Reasonable price, smooth installation. I trust Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for all my plumbing needs. Highly recommend!

Richard Keogh

William White

Used them two times already my team leader Zizz that came out showed up earlier than time given. He was very professional and courteous. And very humorous!!!! Shawn & Christian was the Technician’s that came out to perform the work. They were both very professional and courteous. The work that was performed they made sure everything was in working order. They also made sure that everything was cleaned in the area of work. I would rate them a (6) out of (5) job well done!!!!!

Shawn Vallot

A great company from their office personnel to their field personnel. From the time I spoke to them the process was straight forward clear and concise. They even picked up my water heater from Home Depot. Very professional, a price you can’t beat. Alex and Trey got the job done in an efficient manner and even came back when I was having an issue and sorted it out no questions asked. Any time I have a plumbing issue this will be my go to company. I’ve dealt with a lot of others here in the Lafayette area but their attention for customer service can’t be best.

Kirby L. Turnage, MD Turnage

Jeffery does extraordinary work. He fixed a difficult and challenging problem. He was so professional and thorough, making sure everything was perfect. I strongly recommend. He’s an extraordinarily good reflection on the quality of his company.
