Waunakee, famously "the only Waunakee in the world", is a fast-growing village just north of Madison, known for its excellent schools, family neighborhoods, and a steady wave of new construction. Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of West Madison is the on-time team this thriving community counts on.
On time, every time, if there's any delay, it's you we pay.
Every Waunakee home has access to our full range of plumbing services. The menu is the same across our entire west Madison service area, and each service links to the national brand page with full details:
Waunakee draws its water from municipal wells tapping the region's hard groundwater, so water softeners and iron filtration are frequently requested to protect water heaters, fixtures, and appliances from scale. With much of Waunakee built recently, many homes have modern plumbing and tankless or high-efficiency water heaters, but new doesn't mean maintenance-free, and the hard water still calls for softening.
Like all of Dane County, Waunakee's deep-freeze winters make frozen-pipe protection important, and its full-basement homes need reliable sump pumps with battery backup against snowmelt and spring rains. The village's continued growth keeps new-home plumbing, softeners, and water heaters in demand, while rural-edge properties toward Westport and the countryside may rely on private wells.
The neighborhoods around downtown Waunakee and Village Center · The Kilkenny Farms and Westbridge communities · New subdivisions along Highway 19 and Highway 113 · Rural-edge properties toward Westport · And the homes across Waunakee
Waunakee's wave of newer homes plays to our strengths, softeners for the hard water, sump pumps and frozen-pipe protection for the season, water heater and tankless service, and well service for rural-edge properties. Our stocked trucks resolve most calls on the first visit, on time and with up-front pricing.
Even newer Waunakee homes benefit from a seasonal routine: before winter, insulate exposed pipes and disconnect hoses; before spring, test the sump pump and its backup. Flush the water heater (or descale a tankless unit) yearly for the hard water, and add a softener if scale is an issue.
Call Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of West Madison at (608) 291-9380 (or (800) 259-7705) anytime, day or night, or book your appointment online. Meet the West Madison team behind every visit. We proudly serve Waunakee and the surrounding west Madison and Dane County area, on time, every time. Learn more on the Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® national brand site.

I had a fantastic experience with the lead plumber Brandon White. I called Benjamin Franklin to get a second opinion on a quote from another company, and he went above and beyond. He sent Benjamin & he came over the same day, he reassured me that the work recommended by the competitor was indeed necessary, reasonably priced, and completely aligned with the standard of work his team would provide. I was impressed with his honesty, he also explained why the work was necessary in terms that were easy to understand. His professionalism, and integrity gave me total peace of mind. I highly recommend Brandon White the lead plumber at Benjamin Franklin for anyone looking for a trustworthy professional!

Did a great job for a fair price. Arrived on time. Did excellent, professional work, cleaned up afterwards and was courteous through the entire time. Met ALL my expectations.
Lee Wood
Scheduling service was easy and the discussion of the work I needed performed occurred at my house and options were discussed. Once we decided on the items to be replaced and the work to be performed, I received the cost estimate and we scheduled a date for the work. Davy showed up on-time to perform the work and was very thorough in getting the job finished. The work was accomplished in the time allotted and Davy provided a detailed review of the work. Highly recommend contacting Erin and his team at Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to get top quality, reliable work at a fair price!

After investigating, multiple breaks were repaired after the water meters. Stayed until full repair was completed and disturbed area repaired. Great job. I will consider hiring Ben Franklin for any additional repairs needed.

Great experience with this new company. John, the owner, was extremely helpful in his initial visit. Follow up appointments were needed and Hugo was assigned as our technician. Hugo was kind and knowledgeable. He explained everything and completed everything well. Will definitely recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to friends and family.

Great service, worked over allotted time and did not charge more than agreed. Good guys, very pleased and will use again!
