Thonotosassa is a rural community in northeastern Hillsborough County country living around Lake Thonotosassa, the county's largest lake, with large lots, ranches, and wooded acreage near Hillsborough River State Park. Its rural, lakefront character is a natural fit for Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Tampa.
On time, every time if we're not on time, we pay you $5 a minute, up to $300. We're your local Tampa Bay plumbing team.
Every Thonotosassa home has access to our full range of plumbing services. The menu is the same across our entire Tampa Bay service area, and each service links to the brand page with full details:
Around-the-clock emergency service dispatched for Thonotosassa homeowners facing burst or leaking pipes, slab leaks, sewer backups, water heater failures, or no-water situations day or night, weekends and holidays.
Water softeners, reverse osmosis, and whole-home purification for the Tampa Bay area's hard Floridian Aquifer water cutting the scale that ruins water heaters, fixtures, and appliances and addressing the sulfur “rotten-egg” odor. Ask about our free water testing.
Pipe repair and whole-home repiping a Tampa Bay specialty. We replace the failure-prone polybutylene installed in thousands of 1980s–90s homes (its reaction with chloraminated water leads to leaks insurers now flag), plus aging cast iron, galvanized, and corroded copper, with leaking pipe and water line repair.
Slab leak detection and repair, plus non-destructive leak detection and leak repair vital under the concrete slab foundations of Florida homes, where catching hidden leaks early saves water and, in this limestone region, helps protect the ground beneath your home.
Water heater repair, replacement, and installation, including tankless systems Tampa Bay's hard water scales and shortens water heater life, making yearly flushing, replacement, and tankless upgrades popular.
Sewer service, drain cleaning, clogged-drain clearing, and hydro jetting with camera inspection clearing grease, scale, and roots from Tampa Bay sewer and drain lines.
Water pump service and treatment for the many rural Hillsborough and Pasco homes on private wells (iron, sulfur, sediment, and hardness), plus sump pump and pool pump service and septic-aware drain and sewer work.
Gas line installation and repair for water heaters, ranges, pool heaters, and outdoor kitchens installed and tested safely by licensed professionals.
Faucets, toilets, showers, sinks, bathtubs, and garbage disposals repaired and installed, plus outdoor plumbing for hose bibs, irrigation, pool equipment, and outdoor kitchens.
Expert plumbing repairs, inspection, and installation for homes and businesses of every age across the Tampa Bay area.
Thonotosassa's rural, lakefront setting shapes its plumbing. Many homes here are on private wells and septic systems, so well and pump service, well-water treatment for iron, sulfur, sediment, and hardness, and septic-aware drain and sewer service are core needs. Older ranch and country homes may have aging galvanized, cast iron, or polybutylene worth repiping, and lakefront homes on Lake Thonotosassa bring dock, outdoor, and irrigation plumbing.
Thonotosassa homes sit on concrete slab and concrete-block foundations over karst limestone not basements so slab-leak detection and catching hidden leaks early matter in this sinkhole-prone region. The community's large, remote lots make our fully stocked, one-visit approach especially valuable, and the occasional inland freeze makes frozen-pipe prep worthwhile.
Thonotosassa's rural, lakefront homes get our full range well and pump service, well-water treatment, septic-aware drain and sewer work, repiping, slab-leak detection, water heater service, and dock and outdoor plumbing. Our stocked trucks finish most jobs in one trip.

Linda Burns
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
