"I highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. They cam within a day of when I called, assessed and fixed one problem, installed a new water heater the same day, and returned the next day to install new pipes above the water heater. The plumbers were polite, professional, and explained clearly what they were doing. Pricing was very reasonable and I also have a yearly service contract. Office personnel were also friendly and knowledgeable. Will only use them from now on."

"Shane promptly answered his phone.  After telling him my problem, he stated that he was able to fit me in right away.  He called me back to let me know he would be a little late & wanted to know if this was ok.  It didn't take long & he was knocking on my door.  Shane is extremely personable & seems like he enjoys his work.  He took his shoes off as soon as he walked thru the door.  He told me what he thought it was & already had the part in hand.  Wow!  Shane immediately got to work.  After taking parts of the unit off, he showed rust that he felt contributed to the problem.  After the cleaning, it was a small mound of rust that had built up.  He took the pilot light out & thought that also was part of the problem.  It took him no time at all & I could hear the gas, then the pilot lighting.  After it ran for a few minutes, he tested it to show me it was working.  He then showed me normal settings, adjustments to make & warnings regarding hot water.  I appreciated the information he provided.  In all, it took less than 30 minutes for the job.  I am more than pleased with his service & he has a customer for life.

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Drain clearing removes debris and clogs from drain pipes enough to allow water to drain properly. On the other hand, drain cleaning removes all of the material from the pipe so that water flows unrestricted, which is a longer-term solution. Your plumbing pro will be able to recommend the right service depending on the clog size, frequency of issues, and surrounding pipework.

Never pour used motor oil down the drain. Doing so can have serious environmental consequences, including contaminating groundwater, endangering animals, and killing vegetation. It can also clog your pipes, causing backups in your plumbing or the wastewater treatment plant. In most places, pouring motor oil down the drain is illegal, whether you do it in your home or a storm drain.

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.

There are several steps you can take to prevent your AC drain from clogging. This includes cleaning the drain line at least every three months, changing the filter every one to three months, and getting your AC serviced annually. Also, if any problems arise with your AC, hire an HVAC technician to deal with them ASAP.

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.
