Bartlett is our hometown, the village where Benjamin Franklin Plumbing® of Bartlett & Schaumburg is based, straddling the corners of Cook, DuPage, and Kane counties at the western edge of the northwest suburbs. It's a community of well-kept neighborhoods, a historic downtown, and the parks and trails that make it a favorite place to raise a family.
Being local means we're not just passing through; Bartlett is home. We back every visit with our signature promise: if there's any delay, it's you we pay.
Every Bartlett home has access to our full range of plumbing services. The menu is the same across our entire northwest-suburban service area, and each service links to the national brand page with full details:
Around-the-clock emergency service dispatched for Bartlett homeowners facing burst or frozen pipes, sump pump failures, sewer or basement backups, or no-water situations, day or night, weekends and holidays, with no after-hours fees.

Faucets, toilets, sinks, and garbage disposals repaired and installed.
Commercial plumbing service for area businesses, restaurants, retail, and multi-family properties.
Bartlett's water history reflects the broader northwest-suburban story: like many area towns, the village historically drew on deep sandstone wells. This prompted many Illinois suburbs to seek alternative supplies, and the region has steadily moved toward Lake Michigan water. Whatever the source, the water here is hard enough that softeners are a common upgrade to protect water heaters and fixtures from scale.
Bartlett's housing is dominated by subdivisions built from the 1970s through the 2000s, many now reaching the age where water heaters fail and fixtures wear out, and the earliest builds may carry polybutylene piping worth checking. Full basements over clay soil make sump pumps with battery backups essential, heavy storms make sewer backups and backwater valves a real concern, and cold winters bring frozen-pipe risk to every exposed run.
As the hometown team, we know Bartlett's neighborhoods, its housing stock, and its water. Our trucks are a familiar sight here. We stock them to handle the sump pumps, water heaters, repipes, and frozen-pipe repairs Bartlett homes actually need, resolving most visits in a single trip, often the same day.
if there's any delay, it's you we pay, $5 for every minute we're late, up to $300. See our guarantees.

In our hometown, prevention is the smart play: protect exposed pipes before the first hard freeze, test the sump pump and battery backup before the wet spring, flush the water heater yearly, and have older piping checked for polybutylene. If your basement has ever backed up, ask about a backwater valve before the next storm.

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!
