I needed to setup a couple of washer dryer units in the basement of my 4 unit property. They are prompt and the quality of work is very good. They were referred to me by my Realtor and I needed this done quickly so I did not quotes from any other company. So I can’t quite whether the pricing was right. I am otherwise happy with their work. Their technicians are very knowledgeable and understand the century old homes in San Francisco.

Excellent Plumbing Service! Mattew from BF Plumbing Company fixed my bathtub drainage issue quickly and professionally for free. The water had been draining very slowly, and he solved the problem efficiently. He also worked on a plumbing project at my home last summer, and once again, his service was excellent — reliable, courteous, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend him for any plumbing needs!

Wayne was fantastic. He came in the morning and replaced my water heater. I was so relieved since the heater is in my hallway and was slowly leaking. I called the other plumbers (in the evening) and I didn't get any call backs until mid morning. Ben Franklin answered my call in the evening and made appointment and they were out the next morning. Others advertise about quick call back, but that didn't happen. If you're having plumbing problem, ask for Wayne. He is a delight.

The Benjamin Franklin Plumbing-South Bay has very experienced plumber, technician, and manager. Unlike another company, which would destroy my old bathtub, the Benjamin Franklin Plumbing-South Bay found a smart way to replace my old rusty sewage pipes of the year 1952.

I had my Rinnai tankless water heater annual flush service was done through Benjamin Franklin. Getting an appointment was very easy. Wayne Keeling from their team showed up promptly and did an awesome job of an entire house faucet / plumbing inspection and performed tankless water heater flush service. He patiently answered all my questions regarding water filter system for the house. They are a very reasonable business. I was very happy with Wayne and Benjamin Franklin team’s service. I highly recommend them.

Plumbing FAQs

What routine maintenance should I be doing for my San Jose water heater?

To keep your water heater running smoothly in San Jose, it’s a good idea to flush the tank once a year to clear out sediment, especially if your area has hard water. Check the pressure relief valve, inspect for rust or leaks, and make sure the thermostat is set to a safe temperature (usually around 120°F). Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your unit and keeps your hot water flowing efficiently. For peace of mind, consider scheduling a professional inspection with a local plumber.

How do I know if I need a San Jose plumber for my home's low water pressure?

If your water pressure suddenly drops or only affects certain fixtures in your San Jose home, it could be a sign of a clogged pipe, leak, or a problem with your water supply. Try cleaning faucet aerators first, but if the issue persists, it’s best to call a licensed plumber in San Jose to diagnose and fix the problem before it gets worse.

Do you offer emergency plumbing service in San Jose?

We are available 24/7 to take your call for emergencies. Our appointment hours are listed above.

How often should I schedule drain cleaning for my San Jose property?

For most homes in San Jose, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups. If your property has older pipes, large trees nearby, or frequent slow drains, you may need service more often. Regular maintenance keeps your plumbing flowing smoothly and protects your home from unexpected issues.For most homes in San Jose, scheduling professional drain cleaning once a year helps prevent clogs, odors, and costly backups.

Do you offer plumbing financing in San Jose?

We work built relationships with several lenders to ensure our customers are able to restore functionality in their homes. Ask your technician about your financing options.

Are there plumbing upgrades that can help conserve water in my San Jose home?

Yes! Upgrading to low-flow toilets, water-saving showerheads, and high-efficiency faucets can significantly reduce water use in your San Jose home. You can also install smart leak detectors and tankless water heaters for added efficiency. A local plumber can recommend the best options based on your home’s setup and water usage habits.

What are common plumbing issues in older San Jose homes?

Older homes in San Jose often face plumbing issues like corroded or outdated pipes, low water pressure, and frequent leaks. You might also encounter problems with old fixtures, sewer line deterioration, or poor drainage. A professional inspection can help identify hidden issues and recommend upgrades to keep your plumbing system safe and efficient.

What should I do to prepare my plumbing for winter in San Jose?

To get your plumbing ready for winter in San Jose, start by insulating exposed pipes, especially in unheated areas like basements and garages. Disconnect outdoor hoses, shut off exterior water lines, and check your water heater for optimal performance. It’s also smart to know where your main shut-off valve is in case of a frozen pipe emergency.

How can I tell if my sewer line is damaged in San Jose?

Signs of a damaged sewer line in your CA home include frequent drain clogs, foul odors, soggy spots in your yard, and gurgling sounds from your toilets or drains.
