"
Our pool was needing water added a lot.  Being new to FL I didn't know any better.  Our pool service told us to check it out because it seemed to be an unusual amount.  We called American Leak detection.
They found a leak in the piping of the pool which was costing us a lot in water loss .  They found it, dug it up and fixed it and everything went well.  not a problem since.  I was extremely happy with their work and the guys who came out.  they were on time. courteous, and knew what they were doing. You cannot tell where they took up the lanai brick to access the pipe.   I did call them again in Nov for an unrelated problem and they solved it in 15min.  I won't say they were cheap, but they were reasonable and knew what they were doing and didn't try to run up the cost. I feel I got good value for my money and peace of mind knowing the job was done right.  My experience was wonderful and I highly recommend them."

"The company contacted very quickly and scheduled an appointment to survey and give me an estimate. The plumber technician arrived as scheduled and immediately scheduled me for the next morning. The old unit was removed without incident as was the new unit installation. Mike was courteous and approachable and extremely knowledgeable. He kept me informed of the steps in the work process. I would highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing."

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

There are quite a few telltale signs that you've got a leak. The most obvious ones are that water is pooling in parts of your home where it shouldn't, and the water bill is higher than normal. If you frequently hear unusual whistling noises coming from the pipes or experience a drop in water pressure, these are also signs the hose pipe burst.

The average cost to hire a plumber is typically between $45 and $200 per hour, with a common average rate around $125 per hour. This cost can vary based on your location, the plumber's experience, and the complexity of the job. Rates are often broken down by experience level: an apprentice may charge $45 to $90 an hour, a journeyman $60 to $110 an hour, and a master plumber $80 to $200 an hour. While hourly rates are standard, some plumbers may charge a flat fee for routine projects or offer project-based pricing. It's also common for plumbers to charge a minimum service or trip fee. For reference, some typical flat-rate costs for common jobs include: drain unclogging ($220), leaky faucet repair ($270), burst pipe repair ($400), toilet repair ($300), and water heater repair ($600). Note that these rates are for standard service hours; emergency, holiday, and after-hours calls will cost significantly more.

That pesky faucet leak can have a few different causes, most of which are standard wear and tear that occurs over time, but that doesn’t make it any less annoying, especially when the energy bill hits:

  • Old washer: A deteriorated washer or gasket is the most common cause of a leak. Luckily, it’s easy and affordable to fix.

  • Old packing nut: There’s a chance the packing nut (located beneath the handle) is loose and simply needs tightening, or it has been worn down, stripped, and needs to be replaced.

  • Freezing temperatures: The water sitting in your spigot over winter can freeze, expand, and lead to damage and leaks.

  • High water pressure: High water pressure is hard on pipes over time and can cause cracks and leaks, too.

No—you should always shut off the power and the water supply to the tank. Shutting off the water ensures that your water heater won’t continuously refill while you are trying to drain it, which would likely cause a big mess! Make sure to allow the hot water to cool completely before continuing the process of draining the heater.

Yes, pipes can freeze during the winter months. If temps dip below 20 degrees Fahrenheit for six or more hours, your insulated pipes are more at risk, while uninsulated pipes can freeze if temps fall below 32 degrees for around 12 hours. Exterior pipes are more likely to freeze than interior pipes. The best way to prevent freezing pipes is by insulating your pipes, keeping your home’s temperature above 55 degrees, opening cabinets and doors containing pipes to promote circulation, dripping faucets, and disconnecting hoses.
