Sanny Jimenez

I had an excellent experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing in Huntington Beach. Brandon was professional, punctual, and incredibly thorough. He took the time to explain the entire process clearly, which made me feel confident and informed every step of the way. The service was top notch from start to finish and was done on time, efficient, and respectful of my home. I highly recommend them if you're looking for honest, reliable plumbing service. Thanks again, Brandon!

Norman Sanchez

Benjamin Franklin Plumbing provided excellent service from start to finish. The technician arrived on time, was professional, and clearly explained the work being done. The job completed was efficient with fair and transparent pricing. They're a new and upcoming business with motivated and humble personnel who are eager to serve the community's plumbing needs in all areas. Overall, a dependable and customer-focused company I would gladly recommend.

Robin Wilcox

This is a great outfit, the plumbers here are really on top of their game. Use this company for all of my properties. Do not hesitate to give them a call if you have any plumbing repairs!

steven alvarez

We had a huge mess with the master bath. Mike came in on a Sunday for us (thats was so nice), no-one else would. He was EXTREMELY professional and nice. He handled the issue and explained a lot to us (he didn't have to do that). I was so relieved about the whole experience. Another kicker is that he had no intention of nickel and diming us for a Sunday call. If you ever need a plumber, please call this company and hopefully, you will get Mike. I'm beyond satisfied and I will NEVER use a different company.

Daphne Hodges

We were so blessed to have someone like Ira sent out to us. He was professional, respectful, knowledgeable, with lots of patience. We also learned a lot from him. What an asset for Ben Franklin.

Rick

Hector did a fantastic job! Replaced all copper lines, replaced all shut off valves, rerouted a few lines that were not in code, replaced main shut off valve coming in from the street, replaced kitchen faucet, installed a new garbage disposal unit. The list goes on! Now we have peace of mind with no worries on plumbing issues. GREAT JOB!!!

Alex Mills

We contacted Benjamin Franklin Plumbing because we had a leak we couldn’t locate. Joe P. was the technician/plumber who came out, and he was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. He called ahead to say he was on his way and showed up right when he said, which was very appreciated. Joe thoroughly inspected every possible source until he found the issue. He clearly explained what he was checking, how he identified the problem, and what our options were to fix it. He was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied after the repair. We’ll be requesting Joe specifically for any future plumbing needs. He truly represents outstanding service.

Chelsea Crockett

Garrett was awesome! Very kind and answered all of my questions. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job. He was also so sweet to my pup 🙂

Brian Bloedel

First time that Ben Franklin came here for work. I needed a water line run to my new refrigerator. The obvious thing to do was run an underfloor line from the refrigerator location to the nearby sink plumbing. But a quick exam of my very low crawl space showed that the ventilation ductwork made that route impossible. Fortunately, the water line to my utility room washing machine could be quickly tapped to run the line through the wall. I also appreciated that the plumber helped me position and set my refrigerator to finish the project. Will be calling Ben Franklin for a future project. Thanks!

Cristin Hamilton-Morris

Technician Matthew was amazing. He was very friendly and explained everything he was doing. The job ended up being more than what he came out to do and he stayed to finish everything that needed to be done. I definitely would recommend this company to friends and family
