David and Scott did a wonderful job with my annual inspection and water heater flush. I told them of a concern I had with the handle in my spare bathroom shower amd they were able to diagnose what needed to be done. They had the part and were able to get it replaced in no time. David and Scott were very professional…

Sadly, I was not impressed with Ben Franklin Plumbing. I was charged $512 for pulling out the shower handle and replacing the cartridge.
