Update Cam came out and installed the Stream Labs the water leak detection system. He was incredibly efficient and knowledgeable. Set it up for me and explained how to use it. Will definitely use them again. Update After the Stream Labs unit was installed it detected high water pressure indicating that my pressure release valve was going bad. Cam came out and replaced it. Quick and efficient.

After another company failed to fix a gas leak on a gas cooktop they installed (after coming out 3 separate times to fix it and failing to do so), we called Benjamin Franklin plumbing. Cam was at our house within 2 hours of calling, found the problem in 5 minutes, and was able to fix it right away. Couldn’t have had a better experience.
