Elayne Bennett

Chris and Jeremy were excellent! They worked hard and cleaned up acterwards. They were very pleasant helpful and knowledgeable. With a restored 100 year Old victorian house I have had many technicians . They are the tops!

Stacy Farina

We were so satisfied with the service that we signed up for the membership plan, and it has been totally worth it! Our water heater failed last night, and they came out first thing this morning to take care of it. Excellent service, very professional, prompt, and transparent about the (pretty reasonable) pricing.

Jerome Lebleu

Chris Bonnell, was a great technician. He quickly diagnosed the problem with my cut-off valve and helped me install my new refrigerator. I’ve used Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for a while and Chris is one of the best I’ve worked with.

donald spriggs

Chris was very professional and very thorough. Chris handled my Noritz tankless water heater error code 90 with care and assisted with inspection of my sump pump. Chris provided recommendations as appropriate for my plumbing needs and cleaned up after the job was done. I will use this service again and recommend to others.

Jimmy Douglas II

Chris was absolutely awesome!! He called before he came with about a 30 min window and was very friendly and personable about the work being done that day. He was very thorough and explained everything after he was done. I have zero complaints about the service and work Chris did. He probably needs a raise for doing his work while it was raining that day.

Plumbing FAQs

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

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Silver Spring, 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 Silver Spring plumber for my home's low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your Silver Spring 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 Silver Spring to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service in Silver Spring?

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 Silver Spring property?

For most homes in Silver Spring, 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 Silver Spring, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups.

Do you offer plumbing financing in Silver Spring?

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 Silver Spring home?

Yes! Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your Silver Spring 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 Silver Spring homes?

Older homes in Silver Spring 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 Silver Spring?

To get your plumbing ready for winter in Silver Spring, 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 Silver Spring?

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