Buford is a fast-growing city at the north end of Gwinnett County near Lake Lanier. It's a community with a historic downtown, the massive Mall of Georgia, booming new subdivisions, and a mix of suburban and semi-rural living. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of North Atlanta is the on-time team Buford families and businesses count on.
On time, every time. If we're not on time, we pay you $5 a minute, up to $300.
Every Buford home has access to our full range of plumbing services. The menu is the same across our entire North Atlanta service area, and each service links to the national brand page with full details:
Around-the-clock emergency service dispatched for Buford homeowners facing slab leaks, sewer backups, burst or frozen pipes, water heater failures, or no-water situations. We are available day or night, weekends and holidays, with no after-hours fees.
Expert diagnosis and repair of leaks, fixtures, and supply problems, backed by professional inspection and diagnosis. Our plumbers are trained to resolve up to 90% of issues on the first visit.
We offer non-destructive leak detection, slab leak repair, and pool leak detection. The Piedmont's expansive red clay shifts slab foundations and the pipes within them, and we pinpoint leaks before we cut into anything.
Drain cleaning and hydro jetting with camera inspection, clearing grease, buildup, and the tree roots that reach into lines beneath the area's mature canopy.
Sewer line repair and replacement and trenchless options for the root intrusion and aging laterals common in older neighborhoods, often with minimal digging in a landscaped yard.
Water heater repair, replacement, and installation, including tankless systems popular in the area's newer and higher-end homes.
Pipe repair and whole-home repiping for aging galvanized, polybutylene, and cast-iron systems, plus water service line and frozen pipe repair.
Water softeners and filtration and reverse osmosis for homeowners who want cleaner, better-tasting water from the region's Chattahoochee and Lake Lanier surface supply.
Well pump repair and replacement and pressure-tank service for the properties on the area's rural edges that rely on private wells.
Sump pump installation and repair, plus drainage, to guard the basements and crawlspaces common on the Piedmont's hilly, high-rainfall terrain.
Outdoor plumbing, pool pump service, and faucet, toilet, shower, bathtub, and garbage disposal repair and installation.
Commercial plumbing service for North Atlanta's offices, restaurants, retail, and the businesses along the Peachtree Industrial and I-85 corridors.
Buford blends old and new across a wide area. Its historic downtown holds older homes that may need repiping, while its booming new subdivisions bring modern systems and tankless water heaters. Its semi-rural edges near Lake Lanier include properties on private wells that need pump and treatment service. The Piedmont's red clay shifts slab foundations and the pipes within them, making slab leak detection a defining local service. The area's Lake Lanier water is moderate in hardness.
Buford's mature trees send roots into sewer laterals, so hydro jetting and trenchless repair are frequent. Its hilly, lakeside terrain means basements and crawlspaces that benefit from sump pumps and drainage. The Mall of Georgia area and Buford's business corridors rely on commercial plumbing, and the occasional hard freeze can threaten exposed pipes.
Buford's mix of historic homes, new subdivisions, and lakeside properties plays to our strengths. We offer slab leak detection and repiping, well and pump service for the semi-rural edges, water heater service for the new builds, and commercial plumbing near the Mall of Georgia. Our stocked trucks resolve most calls on the first visit.
If we're not on time, we pay you $5 for every minute we're late, up to 60 minutes or $300. See our guarantees.

Buford plumbing follows the Georgia calendar. Watch for slab leaks as the clay shifts. If you're on a well, keep the pump and treatment maintained. Before the occasional hard freeze, insulate exposed pipes and disconnect hoses. Flush the water heater yearly.

I highly recommend this company. They were quick and responsive in scheduling my service, and the plumber they sent out was fantastic. Sometimes it’s hard to find a plumber, but search no more. Use them! I certainly will use them again. Most importantly, their prices are very reasonable and competitive.

Outstanding experience! A polite young man Mr. Amado handled a small repair for us, and everything went seamlessly. Scheduling through the call center was quick, communication was stellar, and the pricing and workmanship were top-notch. As someone who has worked in the service industry for a long time, I truly appreciate the commitment to customer service and communication training shown here. The quality of work still needs to stand the test of time, but the overall experience was 10 out of 10. I won't hesitate to use them again!
Brian Ridenour
Daniel was great!! He was very prompt and explained the workings of the new water heater. The company is awesome. Now you could find a cheaper water heater and cheaper labor but I tried one of those water heaters from the big box store and it failed after only 4 years. The ones that Benjamin Franklin sells are MADE IN THE USA instead of a foreign country. Give them a try, you won’t be sorry!
Dennis Sen
10/10, no doubt about it. Lucas was prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. We had an issue with our water heater that left us without hot water or heat this fall. He quickly diagnosed the problems, explained his findings in excellent detail, and got everything fixed. He also went the extra mile in a couple of ways I didn’t expect, which I really appreciated. I’d absolutely recommend Lucas!
Refind Vintage
We had our water heater repaired and had a new water filter system installed after the technician suggested it. He was friendly and factual. After his visit we had to have another repair man to set the water heater temperature. Now it is working fine.
Suzyn Purdy
Christian was a very kind and pleasant young man. He did an exceptional job replacing my kitchen sink faucet and incinerator. He was thorough and helped to get the smell out of our pipes I would recommend him for any job.
Larry Murphy
Our plumber, Jared was efficient and understood our issue quickly! Very respectful of us and property and we highly recommend this company.
Jeremiah Fisher
A full gas water heater installation -- quick install with courteous service. Jon Hare and Luke Stelly gave excellent advice and were finished with the install in less 3 hours (including purchasing the unit itself)! Thanks!
Tammy Spencer
Luke was awesome! I am so happy that I picked your company to do my repair! I will be using your company again. Thank you for your awesome service! I would highly recommend your company to anyone needing service done at their home!
