We contacted Benjamin Franklin Plumbing because we had a leak we couldn’t locate. Joe P. was the technician/plumber who came out, and he was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. He called ahead to say he was on his way and showed up right when he said, which was very appreciated. Joe thoroughly inspected every possible source until he found the issue. He clearly explained what he was checking, how he identified the problem, and what our options were to fix it. He was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied after the repair. We’ll be requesting Joe specifically for any future plumbing needs. He truly represents outstanding service.

Elise Napier
Zack was very capable and professional. He is licensed and very knowledgeable. We had several leaks and he was able to diagnose them all, gave us a quote, and made an appointment to come back and fix them. The work he did was quick, well done, and tidy. He laid down drop cloths to make sure our floor stayed nice, and wiped down each area so the work looked nice when he was done. He was kind and explained everything that needed to be done. I was very comfortable having him in our home and very happy with the work.

John did a wonderful job replacing my water heater. He put down plastic runner to protect the floor and cleaned up afterwards. He even helped me to take things out the closet so he could get to water heater. I highly recommend him.

Andrea D'onore
Fabrice was a thorough and competent plumber. He assessed my entire home, started and reset my water softener, answered all my questions, and gave me appropriate recommendations for upgrades and safety devices. I have hired him to install an under sink reverse osmosis water, purification system in my kitchen. I would recommend him for any future home projects. I have been using Ben Franklin for my plumbing services for over six years in this home and my previous home. I have found them to be very responsive and reasonably priced.
Emma Martinez

To keep your water heater running smoothly in Ukiah, 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 Ukiah home, it could be a sign of a clogged pipe, leak, or a problem with your water supply.
