I found them on Angie's List. It was a reasonable price. They were a lot of help to me. I am new to a sprinkler system; I have never had one before. He went beyond. They are very personable and the plumber who came out was very nice. He was very willing to help and was informative. With regard to price, I felt comfortable paying them.
Description of Work: Benjamin Franklin Plumbing helped me with a busted sprinkler line. The plumber did not just fix the problem, but actually helped me service my sprinkler system.

It''s late Thursday morning, company coming on Friday. Late mornng the water meter reader rings doorbell to tell us that we used 45,000 gallons of water since last reading!! And meter was spinning rapidly without slowing down. That's enough water to fill a good sized swimming pool with water left over! Normal reading around 8000 gallons. rr Checked our two hot water heaters - the oldest (20 years plus) had split a seam and was gushing hot water into the crawl space. Shut water and power off and checked Angie's List for good plumber. Top of the list is Benjamin Franklin on Airport Road iin Hot Springs (Arkansas). Called, lady answered, asked how tall the water heater was, and said someone would be here between 2 and 4 pm. At 1:50 pm, ten minutes early, in drives Nick Cain, plumber, complete with a replacement water heater. He took the old one out, put the new one in, and we were back in business before 4 pm. Now that's service! Professional, pleasant, and 'customer comes first' attitude! Highly recommend Benjamin Franklin (though Nick didn't look anything like good Ol' Ben!)
Description of Work: Replaced hot water heater.

Thank you [member name removed] for the good review. We appreciate your business! I also wanted to let you know if you have an increased water bill due to this event that your water company should adjust your water bill when you provide a copy of your plumbing repair bill from a licensed plumber. Again THANK YOU, Kim Bowen, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing

I was more than pleased with their services,
Description of Work: When I called Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, which I got off Angies List, they showed up on time, were professional , friendly and knowledgeable. After looking at my problem , Reed Clark, explaned to me what would be needed and gave me a quote for the parts & labor for the replumbing that would be needed. It took a few days for the new pump to be delivered after they ordered it. When the pump was delivered, Reed gave me call , showed up on time and three hours later everything was repaired. If I ever need a plumber again they will be it.
Description of Work: I needed a new septic tank pump installed. A Mr. Reed Clark came out from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.After explaining my needs, he wrote out 2 estimates.I choose one and he immediately went to work.He (and a helper) replaced the old pump,sunk a post and installed a new weather proof electric box for future work.

I had a major hot water heater leak. Nick from the Ben Franklin Company came out right on time. Jumped right in to the work and started diagnosing the problem. We needed to have a new water heater put in, which he ordered and installed right away. The job was done fast and Nick cleaned up everything when he was done. This is my second encounter with them and I highly recommend them.

Very professional..fast ..
Description of Work: We had humming and hammering in our water pipes when we flushed the toilets . Tommy Bowen and Reed Clark arrived and checked water pressure and diagnosed a defective water pressure reducing valve. They located and replaced this valve and also replaced the water cut-offs and hose connections on each toilet as they were hard to turn on or off. Tommy also inspected our sprinkler RPZ valve. They did all of this within two hours and explained what they were going to doand quoted pricing before they started . Very professional and courteous. Water hammer was fixed and we are very happy with Benjamin Franklin's service.

They are honest and prompt. They stuck to the quote that was given earlier and even if the price was high they got it back to the estimate. They were so neat and careful while working on the bathtub and saw that the mat was also neat. They were very professional, so courteous and very kind to my cats. They came in when I called them to repair the faucets in the bathtub, which was coming out. They repaired it and sealed the same. They also gave good advice to replace the faucets in the near future. They covered their shoes before coming in to the house, which not many do. They were on time and if they say they will be here in half an hour they would come. They were very courteous by being on time.

garbage disposal fell out and my husband was out of town, I was in a panic! I looked on Angie's list and found Ben Franklin with A ratings and a coupon so I called and within 30 minutes they were here and it was after 5:00 PM. I did request more work than just putting the garbage disposal back in and I now have wonderful water pressure, it's never been this good and we've lived in our house over 15 years. I will call BF for any of my water problems in the future, you can't go wrong with Ben Franklin in Hot Springs!
Description of Work: re-installed the garbage disposal put new hoses on and a new water pressure gage........the young man was a joy to work with and very professional and knowledgeable.

Mr. Owens was very professional while attaching the sprinkler head. The plumbers I had used last Fall to take off the sprinkler head had lost 2 Orings and some caps. Mr. Owens from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, had every thing he needed to make my sprinklerhead whole. I was not aware of Benjamin Franklin Plumbing in Hot Springs. Thank you Angie for sharing.
Description of Work: Mr. Owens, the plumer for Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, was punctual for his appointment to turn on my sprinkler system. Our community requires that a plumber turns on the sprinklers in the Spring. Mr. Owens turned in all the proper paperwork in to Hot Springs. Mr. Owens also sold me a yearly program to get priority first service when I call and saves money.

On a Sunday afternoon, we had a shower/tub leak in our only functioning bathroom. We got on Angie's list and, after a bit of research, contacted Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. As this event occurred on a Sunday, we were thrilled to learn that Benjamin Franklin would arrive within the hour. Upon arrival, the plumber covered his shoes before entering our home and immediately set to work. He cut an access panel on the backside of the shower/tub wall, replaced the rotten trap, and thoroughly cleaned up the mess. From start to finish, the entire process took approximately 1 hour. The plumber was neat, clean, courteous, respectful, and extremely professional. We were not surprised when presented with the bill because we had been advised of the charges throughout the entire process. We paid $233 for this job. Based on how satisfied we were with the outcome of the above job, we promptly hired Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to locate and replace our water pressure regulator. The following Tuesday, two plumbers arrived. Once again, before entering our home, they each put on shoe covers and we were advised of the process and fees involved. One plumber walked around with a metal detector while the second plumber commenced digging at the water meter to gain access to the piping. Several hours passed in an attempt to locate the pressure regulator using just the metal detector. It was then decided that a combination of metal detector and fish tape were required. The piping was separated at the meter, the fish tape was inserted in the piping, and the search continued. Eventually, the non-functioning pressure regulator was located and replaced with a new one. The dirt at the meter was put back in place so that you could not even tell it had been dug up and all other messes completely cleaned up. This job took approximately 6 hours from start to finish. Again, both plumbers were neat, clean, courteous, respectful and extremely professional. We paid $838 for this particular job. We highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing! They were "the best" plumbing service we've ever used!

We needed a plumber sameday. I found Benjamin Franklin Plumbing here on Angie's List with 2 reviews (both good) and a coupon. The receptionist (Kim) was very pleasant. I was told someone would be at my home between 4pm and 6pm. I received a phone call around 3pm. The plumber (Reed) said he could come early. I was very happy because you are lucky if someone shows up in the 4hr window most companies/contractors give you. Reed was very nice and professional. Our main line needed clearing and he was able to do it that afternoon. Ya! We had working toilets and showers for the weekend. I have no complaints. Although I heard they are a bit pricey, I guess the rule applies - "You get what you pay for." In this case, we got professional, on-time (actually early) service for our money. It was worth the price.
Description of Work: Our toilets and showers were backing up. One toilet overflowed twice on me that morning (a Friday). The plumber said it was roots in the main line. He was able to get everything working that afternoon.

We became aware of a leak in the basement at around 1:30 AM. I called Benjamin Franklin, a 24-hour plumbing service. The repairman was prompt and very courteous, and the work was done in a timely and efficient manner. He put covers on over his shoes so as not to soil the carpeting. He explained the work he would have to do and what it would cost and after the work was done he explained everything that he had done. He also repaired a leaking toilet. I'm very satisfied with the service from Benjamin Franklin.
Description of Work: The plumber repaired a broken water pipe outside my house at the point where the water pipe comes into the house. He also repaired a leaking toilet.
