Their patient , knowledgeable , and talented staff installed a six head multi split inverter heat pump system in my 1770 cape. It doesnt get more complicated than my install and Terry, Malachy, Jason, and Nick made it look easy. No ugly piping on the outside and seamless use of closets and chases for piping on the inside. Yes they do HVAC!

My girlfriend Rachel and I experienced a sudden back-up in our septic shortly after the holidays. What we hoped was going to be solved by a routine septic tank pumping turned into a bit more of an issue. With the help of Chris, Eric, Humberto, and Emma we were able to diagnose the issue and have a compromised septic line dug up and replaced within nearly 24 hours! The team at Benjamin Franklin is nothing short of remarkable and we could not have asked for a better crew of professionals to help us through this situation. We will certainly be using Benjamin Franklin for any further septic or plumbing issues that may come up in the future. We cant thank you enough!

I have used Benjamin Franklin Plumbing and both times their staff have shown professionalism and have shown great care and attention to my home. Making sure to come in and out only when necessary, wearing covers on their shoes, cleaning up as they worked up to leaving out.

Ryan W. was sure to go over every detail of the job with me. By the time he left I was not confused about anything that I paid for. I can explain it in full detail to my to brief him on the job as well. Ryan was kind, professional, honest and treated my home as if it was his home. Which I greatly appreciated.

I love that they wear their id badges, have their tablets to take payments, photos and when they call it comes from the company line. Makes me feel secure. Their vehicle also has the company logo on it. They come with their own tools and equipment.

I also appreciate the pricing. I will continue to use them for my water and gas plumbing needs.

Not sure of price compared to other. Customer service best received from anyone in long time. Ami took the time to answer my questions and explain how the sediment buildup could take awhile to get out system and best options for all water outlets. Brian did a great job explaining things on the first visit.

Nigel extremely friendly, helpful, & courteous. Please tell him, though, he needs to return to tighten new faucet.... it's loose.

Brian came today to tighten the new kitchen faucet that Nigel had recently installed. Brian was friendly & professional & completed the tightening in minutes. I'm happy with the results. Now if you could only lower your prices, I'd be ecstatic!

I had a great experience with Ryan Wesson from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. Our Combi hot water boiler (HTP ELU 150WCN) stopped working, but Ryan quickly got it back up and running. He also identified a few underlying issues and provided clear options for the best way forward. Thanks to him, my family has heat and hot water again. Cheers, Ryan!

I'm leaving a five star review for Elliot my technician. He was friendly and engaging. He was full of information about my specific needs for my house system and the alternative of a change to propane. All though we did not connect on this project I would refer this company based on what I learned from Elliot.

I had a broken water pipe that needed immediate repair, and Ben from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing did an excellent job. The plumber was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. He clearly explained the issue, fixed it properly, and made sure everything was working before leaving. The work was done cleanly and with care, and the whole experience was stress-free. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing reliable plumbing service.

Aaron did an excellent job with the installation. When finished, he checked every water source in the house to be sure that there was hot water everywhere. Also, as a retired educator & teacher trainer, I thought he worked well with Cale, giving him appropriate responsibility & guiding & encouraging in meaningful ways. And, they did a great cleanup before they left!

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 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!

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
