Ryan is knowledgeable and attentive. He listened to and responded to my questions and concerns and was patient in explaining things and writing them down for me. He did a great job replacing the works under the kitchen sink and installing a water filter. Would absolutely put my trust in him again.

This was a visit to repair a water leak that was not taking completely taken care of in the first visit. New faucet was installed and took care of leak under sink on the first visit. Leak was still apparent in the cellar after a few days, so had to call them. Ryan Wesson and Gunner came the same day that I called and since I paid a lot, it was worth it for the guarantee. They were both extremely professional and easy to talk to. Was able to voice my concerns and know that the work is guaranteed should the problem still exist. Everything that was done was explained and no further costs were added on. Thank you for the great service performed by Ryan and Gunner, and the company back up with no questions asked.

It was a great working experience with Ben Williams during well pump and submersible motor replacement. I still think I overpaid, but my water is up and running. Ben Williams was professional and courteous. I watched the entire installation and he didn't have any issue. He answered my all questions. Thanks again.

Brian Lysak was very professional was on time and very knowledgeable about what was needed. He also was very personable. We discussed our pets and he showed me pics of his 19 year old cat which was nice. Normally people just come and talk about the job and leave. It was nice to be to be able to laugh with someone at 9 am in the
morning. Thanks Brian for making my morning Nutcracker.

Jordan arrived on time and was able to assess the issue. Very knowledgeable, courteous, processed our concerns. He explained how the installation will go and had informed us of how there is a shut off system that will inform you if there is a leak in your home by monitoring the water pressure, this updates Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of the issue and everything can be managed through your phone. A great preventive device that they can install and it saves your home and gives consumers like us a discount with our home insurance. JORDAN provided us with information and advise and the BEST Part is if you become a member you have ALL the different services that they offer in your fingertips. IF YOU OWN A HOME/CONDO/APARTMENT, BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PLUMBING IS THE ONLY COMPANY YOU NEED...Jordan, we really appreciate all this new information. Brand New Loyal members here!!!

We have Eric come out to pump our septic and he was extremely helpful and patient. Our house had a new tank out in and we didnt know know exact measurements. Eric took his time and was eager to find the tank for us unlike another company who basically left and never came back. Eric was knowledge and explained everything to us. Thank you for your help

Jordan promptly arrived to assess the issue with my water heater. Upon his arrival, I informed him that another company had provided a quote. Jordan demonstrated respect and professionalism, asking that I hear him out while he presented alternative quotes. He offered detailed information on water heaters and identified additional concerns that required immediate attention to avoid potential future expenses. After presenting prices, Jordan observed my reaction and offered to revisit the quotes. Following a brief interval, he returned with a revised proposal that my girlfriend and I found satisfactory. As a result, a new water heater will be installed tomorrow, restoring our access to hot water. Throughout the process, Jordan remained committed to ensuring our satisfaction before departing. I would like to express my gratitude to Jordan for his dedication to his work and his commitment to providing exceptional customer service.

Ryan Wesson was very professional, polite and thorough. He didnt leave until he made sure the leak stopped. He was here late. He even had plans that he was going to end up missing. This shows true dedication. He also walked by our 1/2 bath and heard a hissing sound and knew right away the problem and fixed that for us as well even though that wasnt on the work order he came for. He really knows what he is doing, was neat, put everything back in place, cleaned up everything and wore shoe coverings when entering our home. It is nice to know that a young man like him is super polite and showed he cares. Ben Franklin Plumbing is lucky to have such a great knowledgeable worker like Ryan! We were very pleased and would recommend Ben Plumbing and Ryan for sure!

Earlier today I called Ben Franklin asking for my septic tank to be cleaned out. This company assigned a truck to arrive on the day I called.
Sam, the guy doing the work, was very conscientious. Thorough. Fast. He emptied my tank significantly better than any other septic service I have ever used. I will gladly talk with anyone who wants details.

Without doubt, this company does a superlative job at a reasonable cost.

Elliot was a great salesmen and was honest which is hard to find nowadays. He told me what is a must fix and gave me a great scope of work. The company also gave me an amazing price on a new install of my oil tank.

Nick, melichai and gentry were punctual, friendly and gave me a great time line of what was happening step by step. I could not be more please with how this turned out and this company. They quoted me and showed up the next day to complete the work and its amazing. Thank you and I would definitely recommend hiring them! If I have a plumbing issue in the future they will be my first call!

They are an awesome company, they ran into some issues and were more than accomodating to fix without additional charges and did a great job. I haven't had hot water in a month, not because of them either. I had other people out to check it for me and none were as thorough as Ben Franklin
