Benjamin Franklin Plumbing Charlotte

Mike England of Benjamin Franklin was an exceptional professional person that came to my home to do some work! I could not have asked for a nicer and very much educated on what he was doing! I highly recommend him you could not find better!! Barbara Shaffer Miller

I had a leak in the crawlspace coming from the primary bath area. Tony from Benjamin Franklin didn’t give up trying to find the source of the leak. He determined the uniqueness of the situation and the supplies needed for the repair. The repair was completed correctly and Tony wiped down the whole area where he worked putting the bathroom back to its original condition. Tony was great!

Two and a half hours after our scheduled appointment, I call their office. I spoke to someone named Dawn who put me hold to call the plumber. While on hold, I repeatedly heard a message about their on time guarantee so I asked Dawn about when she came back on the line. After pulling up my account and verifying my appointment, she asked if my appointment was for a specific time? That was insulting. Then she said a manager named Shawn was going to call me. He didn't. The sales person who scheduled my appointment called me and tried to smooth thing over. Unless he was able to make it worth the time that I wasted sitting in a house without water all day, I needed to speak a manager. Shawn eventually called me and gave me a lame excuse as to why his plumber was late. If he said the plumber was taking care of his last client and left it at that, I would have understood. He told me that the plumber, who called me because his GPS couldn't find my address, put in my address and it took him to the other side of town. I've owned this house for nearly 20 years. I have never heard such nonsense. Save yourself a headache. Find another plumber. I've attached two screenshots showing the one option they give you to leave a bad comment on their work and the five or six options they give you to leave a good comment. That should let you know everything you need to know about this company.

The technician, Derek, was professional and addressed several issues with professionalism and made each issue right. I would recommend Benjamin Franklin.

They got here within an hour of us discovering the leak. Jason shut off the water to the water heater and drained it.

Service was accurate and quick, technician was professional and explained what required , price quoted was what we paid.

Bill did a GREAT job. Will definitely call and request him if we have further plumbing issues.

RB Hauchum knows his plumbing !!!!!*****

Mike did a great job. I would definitely use him again. 325.00

Did a good job, but the price of the service way to high.

Very respectful and knowledgeable. Even when project did not go as planned.

Jack Charretzz did a great job. Would hire again.

Quick, used a camera to verify. I thought a little pricey given they provide no warranty. No conclusion since no roots or blockage material was returned from the bit and then no evidence was visible on the camera. Still, give them an A for responsiveness ... I had called another well-advertised service (they are local as well) and they could not get here until next day but glad I called Benjamin Franklin plumbing.

On time and results as expected.

Great job, Mike Fisher did a excellent and professional Job. Would use him again if the need should arise.

It went great! Travis, understood the problem, did a great job explaining what needed to be done, and fixed the problem in about 20 minutes!

It was a tight space very satisfied

Russ did a good job to make sure we were happy with the installation.

Adam Wahl was excellent. He was professional and detailed out the problems and remedies for pipe replacement with alternatives in scheduling and layouts also provided to best meet our schedule and budgeting needs.

Mike Fisher was EXCELLENT! He was on time and explained the issue thoroughly as he was working. He answered all of my questions! I would highly recommend Mike to anyone needing plumbing services!!

Great service, Ismail’s on time, work performed exceeds expectations.

Great customer service, knowledgeable with years of experience. I would request Ismail if additional service is needed!

Leak in a pipe in the crawl space was not repaired. had to call another plumber. Asked for a refund or discount but none was given

AVOID – OVERCHARGED AND TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. I hired this company to install a backwater valve in my basement to help with an issue I was having with my main house drain. I agreed to the quote not knowing how big the job would be or what was involved. After the work was completed, I realized that the parts cost less than $100 and that the installation took about one hour. I was home and watched them complete much of the work myself. I was charged $2,000, which included a service call / trip fee and a warranty. After subtracting those costs and the cost of the parts, that left around $1,700 that I paid for about an hour of labor. I emailed the general manager the next day, who was not very responsive. It took four weeks for him to send a supervisor to my home to review the job, after which the GM offered me a $250 credit. I was not satisfied with that amount, and emailed the GM one more time with pictures of the job so he could see it for himself (attached). He did not respond to me after that. I was happy with the service technician and the quality of the work, but being charged that much for the labor is completely absurd. Even if you add in the time spent consulting me at the beginning, traveling to the parts store, eating lunch, etc. - none of which should be included since I paid a separate trip charge - that's still a ridiculous amount. Save your money, avoid the hassle and find a different plumbing company to work with.

Initial Job: Replace water main between street and house. Follow-up Jobs: Water heater flush & increase PSI at street for the house. Adam, the plumber for my account, was great. He showed up exactly ok time with his whole team, his explanations were friendly and informative, he told me exactly what would happen and in what phases, and it went that way from start to finish. I felt very comfortable with the entire project. He also gave me his personal cell phone number, and told me if anything was wrong I could always contact him day or night directly to come look into it. It was customer service you don’t get too often but wish you did. I would be more than happy recommending them to anyone!!!
