Good work. Quick turnout. Clear communication. Tim did such a good job we felt we needed to bring up out right away for another job!

Jade and Bennett did a great job. They took the time to really think it through. None of this was decided in a moment. It was thought of and we thought of they were also extremely courteous. In fact I had to tell them to quit being so nice and to be themselves in my house. But they just couldn’t help themselves and they were professionals all the way. But they were not stiff. They worked hard and they seem to have had a good time working. I would definitely hire them again if I needed to get a plumbing job taken care of in a timely manner and in a professional manner.

Called BF around 8:30am having no hot water. They told me 10-2 and the technician would call ahead of time. My phone was ringing in about 10 minutes and I had someone at my house by 9. Jason was my technician and he showed me options for my situation. Ultimately I went with a new hot water heater and Jason completed the job in about 2 hours. Hot water restored! Jason was professional, polite, and kept me in the loop as he worked. Would highly recommend!

First of all, I want to say that I would highly recommend Benjamin Franklin plumbing. I was in contact with 2 of their employees. Heather and Cole. They both went above and beyond any expectations that I had! It started with Heather. She is such a breath of fresh air! Very friendly and outgoing. I had to reschedule once, and she was totally understanding. And then Cole came to do the work. He has a great personality and took time to listen to our issue, and fixed it in world record time! Unfortunately, we live in a time when expectations are low. So many times we are disappointed by people that aren't good at their jobs and are clearly just going through the motions. I will assure you that these two people are not like that at all! Both of them were amazing, and I will not hesitate to call them or recommend them any time plumbing service is needed. I hope their bosses realize the value that they add to their company. Good employees are hard to find, and I expect that my experience is not too different than what others receive. Give Benjamin Franklin plumbing a try. You won't regret it!

Out tech, Josh, was fantastic. He arrived promptly, introduced himself, and explained everything he was doing. All the costs were given up front before any work was done, so there were no surprises. He was very professional and honest.
Nikkay
Josh installed 2 bathroom sinks and two faucets. He went above and beyond to stay and also snake our drain pipes to my great relief. He was polite and independent in his work, working with confidence and pride in his work,

After the absolute no help from another local plumbing company, and many hundreds of dollars later, we called Benjamin Franklin for help. They were 100% thorough and explained in detail every thing they were doing. They were clean, respectful, and so sweet with my two curious toddlers. I wished we would have called them first!

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Santa Cruz, 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.
If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Santa Cruz 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 Santa Cruz to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.
We are available 24/7 to take your call for emergencies. Our appointment hours are listed above.
For most homes in Santa Cruz, 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 Santa Cruz, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups.

Yes! Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your Santa Cruz 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.
Older homes in Santa Cruz 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.
To get your plumbing ready for winter in Santa Cruz, 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.
Signs of a damaged sewer line in your CA home include frequent drain clogs, foul odors, soggy spots in your yard, and gurgling sounds from your toilets or drains.
