We had a water leak from upstairs that poured into our down stairs bathroom. Traise from Benjamin Franklin quickly responded and fixed the issue. His attention to detail played an integral role in finding the problem. Traise communicated with us throughout the entire process from start to finish. He sent photos and his final report for the insurance company the same day he finished. I highly recommend asking for Traise from Benjamin Franklin for your next plumbing issue or project!

Arrived in timely manner. Explained what would be done and kept me updated on any delays. Explained the repair (root wrapped around pipe and pressure eventually broke the pipe). I guess 25 yrs w/o any issues is pretty good.

Jason came out busted up slab and fixed leak and replaced concrete in a single day. He was courteous and professional. I wish everyone would work that hard. Thank you.

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Southeast Columbus, 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.
