Need Help Now? We Handle Plumbing Emergencies

Plumbing problems don’t check the clock, and neither do we. If water’s pouring out, a pipe bursts in the night, or something just feels off, call right away. We’ll talk you through what to do while a plumber heads over. When we arrive, you get a quick fix and real answers, so you’re not left worrying about what comes next.

Water Heater Replacement

Running out of hot water is frustrating, especially when it starts happening more often. Maybe showers feel shorter than they used to, or you notice the water never quite gets as hot as it should. In many Leawood homes, those little changes are signs that it may be time to think about water heater replacement. An aging water heater can still work, but it often works harder than it should. That can mean higher energy bills, uneven water temperatures, and a greater risk of sudden failure. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® helps you sort through those warning signs without pressure. We take a close look at your current system, talk through how it is performing, and help you decide if replacement is the right move. When replacement makes sense, we keep the process simple. Our plumbers help you choose a water heater that fits your household size and daily routine. Once installed, a new system can deliver steady hot water, improved efficiency, and fewer worries about unexpected breakdowns. The goal is not just new equipment, but reliable comfort you can count on every day.

Water Heater Repair

Sometimes the problem is smaller than it seems. If your hot water disappears suddenly, the temperature goes up and down, or you hear unfamiliar sounds coming from the tank, water heater repair may be all you need. Many common issues can be fixed quickly when they are caught early. Our plumbers take the time to figure out what is really going on. Problems like worn heating elements, faulty thermostats, pressure valve concerns, or sediment buildup inside the tank are common in Leawood homes. These issues often respond well to professional water heater repair and can help extend the life of your system. We keep the conversation clear and easy to follow. Before any work begins, we explain what we found and what your options are. If a repair will restore performance safely and affordably, we will recommend it. If repairs are no longer practical, we will explain why so you can make an informed decision. Either way, you are never left guessing.

Tankless Water Heater Installation

If you like the idea of endless hot water, tankless water heater installation may be worth exploring. Tankless systems heat water as you need it instead of storing it in a tank. That means no waiting for recovery time and no worrying about running out when multiple people need hot water at once. Many Leawood homeowners are drawn to tankless systems because of their energy efficiency and long lifespan. That said, tankless water heater installation is not the right fit for every home. Our plumbers help you weigh the pros and cons by looking at your household size, water usage habits, and existing plumbing setup. Installing a tankless system takes experience, especially when gas lines or electrical upgrades are involved. Our team handles those details carefully to ensure your new system operates safely and efficiently. When installed properly, a tankless water heater can provide consistent comfort, lower energy use, and long-term value. Whether you need water heater repair, water heater replacement, or are curious about tankless water heater installation, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® is here to help Leawood homeowners make confident decisions. With friendly guidance and dependable workmanship, we help you find the hot water solution that fits your home and your lifestyle.

Real Solutions for Leawood Homes

We’ve seen it all in this area, and we know what works. If you want to stay ahead of trouble, just ask about a plumbing inspection or a maintenance plan. We’d rather catch a problem early and save you a headache.

Craig and Sergio were fantastic! A less-than-hot shower on Thursday night led to discovering a pilot light out on our hot water heater going into the Labor Day weekend. Craig and Sergio showed up and quickly/efficiently diagnosed our issue. While we weren’t happy about having to get a new heater, we knew we had to do it because we all need hot water! Craig/Sergio explained everything to us, including price and what all was covered, and Craig had the new heater installed and up and running in about 2 hours. Courteous, knowledgeable, professional and efficient. The people at the office were equally fantastic and took good care of us. I would *ABSOLUTELY* recommend the great folks at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of NWA for all of your plumbing needs - BRAVO! 👍🏻😎❤️

Rick Chimblo

Both technicians, David Gonzales & Jayson Helseley, arrived on-time and explained the entire problem with our outdoor connections to the city main. The work required digging, new copper pipe and value installations. When the work was completed, the pipes were also wrapped with insulation and the ground looked like no one had been there. They are professional, friendly and very respectful to us and our property. We now have BFP doing our semi-annual flushing of our tankless water heater and will call them any time we need plumbing services. Great Team and highly recommended.

Kyriakos Sotos

Nathan did a great job fixing a broken pipe on our outside spigot that was causing a leak. He did a great job assessing the situation and providing an effective fix! He was prompt and incredibly great to work with! I would recommend him to anyone that has a plumbing need!

Ryan Brinker

We are so very happy the the entire process, from them giving the free estimate to our service installer Jordan being professional and friendly and clean. He was informed and shared willingly. Just as pleasant as having to spend money could be. Thanks

Mixit valve was leaking 30-40 drips per minute and needed replaced, was probably original with the house built in 1983. Ben showed up and saved my family and I a large water bill as we were about to leave on a trip. He was done within a few hours and was kind enough to match the fixtures on the sink and even though had a new shower nozzle, he kindly installed the older one that is preferred by my family. He was very professional, explained all his work and cleaned up better than he found the work site. Ben is an excellent service provider and I hope he is awarded a holiday bonus for the exceptional work done.

Alex Polonsky

We’ve been with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for about a year and it has been the service we’ve long been looking for. Their subscription allows for efficient maintenance and pricing that doesn’t hurt your pocket. Today, Francisco helped us with identifying troublesome areas in our tankless water heater during a routine flush, and then walked us through the options on how to address the concerns, with respect and professionalism. Answered all questions without rushing. I felt well informed and taken care of. He was not pushy or trying to upsell us, allowing us to make the decision based on the facts presented. The job was done very quickly and professionally. Highly recommend to ask for Francisco next time you call for service!! Thanks.

Kaitlyn Eliason

Nick did an exceptional job at solving our dryer vent problem as well as explaining maintenance and preventative measures in the future. He was absolutely outstanding and I would recommend his services to absolutely everybody. Thank you so much again!

Debi

Patrick came out today & did a quick fix to my hot water in the shower. Very nice & professional, quick. Did a inspection of hot water heater & kitchen. I will certainly call again. Happy Holidays!!!

Leslie Armenta

We recently had our sewer line repaired and lined, and our technician, Daniel Speicher, was outstanding. He was incredibly proactive, working directly with the city to get our lining approved and keeping us informed every single step of the way. He didn't consider the job done until everything was perfect, including coordinating repairs for some residual damage near our back gate. Danny made a difficult home repair much easier on our family. Five stars!

Plumbing FAQs

What routine maintenance should I be doing for my Leawood water heater?

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Leawood, it’s a good idea to flush the tank once a year to clear out sediment, especially if your area has hard water. Check the pressure relief valve, inspect for rust or leaks, and make sure the thermostat is set to a safe temperature (usually around 120°F). Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your unit and keeps your hot water flowing efficiently. For peace of mind, consider scheduling a professional inspection with a local plumber.

How do I know if I need a Leawood plumber for my home's low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Leawood home, it could be a sign of a clogged pipe, leak, or a problem with your water supply. Try cleaning faucet aerators first, but if the issue persists, it’s best to call a licensed plumber in Leawood to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service in Leawood?

We are available 24/7 to take your call for emergencies. Our appointment hours are listed above.

How often should I schedule drain cleaning for my Leawood property?

For most homes in Leawood, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups. If your property has older pipes, large trees nearby, or frequent slow drains, you may need service more often. Regular maintenance keeps your plumbing flowing smoothly and protects your home from unexpected issues.For most homes in Leawood, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups.

Do you offer plumbing financing in Leawood?

We work built relationships with several lenders to ensure our customers are able to restore functionality in their homes. Ask your technician about your financing options.

Are there plumbing upgrades that can help conserve water in my Leawood home?

Yes! Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your Leawood home. You can also install smart leak detectors and tankless water heaters for added efficiency. A local plumber can recommend the best options based on your home’s setup and water usage habits.

What are common plumbing issues in older Leawood homes?

Older homes in Leawood often face plumbing issues like corroded or outdated pipes, low water pressure, and frequent leaks. You might also encounter problems with old fixtures, sewer line deterioration, or poor drainage. A professional inspection can help identify hidden issues and recommend upgrades to keep your plumbing system safe and efficient.

What should I do to prepare my plumbing for winter in Leawood?

To get your plumbing ready for winter in Leawood, start by insulating exposed pipes, especially in unheated areas like basements and garages. Disconnect outdoor hoses, shut off exterior water lines, and check your water heater for optimal performance. It’s also smart to know where your main shut-off valve is in case of a frozen pipe emergency.

How can I tell if my sewer line is damaged in Leawood?

Signs of a damaged sewer line in your home include frequent drain clogs, foul odors, soggy spots in your yard, and gurgling sounds from your toilets or drains.
