We work hard to ensure your system runs smoothly, offering dependable workmanship and excellent customer care every time. 
Hydrojetting is a high-pressure cleaning method used to clear clogs, blockages, and debris from pipes, drains, and sewer lines. It involves the use of a specialized machine that sprays a powerful stream of water (often at pressures of 1,500 to 4,000 psi) through the pipes. The high-pressure water is directed through a nozzle at the end of a hose, which can be fed into the pipe or drain. This stream of water helps to break up and flush away grease, sludge, tree roots, mineral buildup, and other obstructions that may be causing a blockage or restricting water flow. 
We provide professional leak detection that targets hidden plumbing issues before they worsen. Our experts monitor increased water bills, damp areas, low water pressure, and musty odors to identify leaks early. Prompt intervention prevents structural deterioration, mold proliferation, and insulation damage. With Franklin Plumbing, your property receives precise assessment and immediate, high-quality repair recommendations. 
We specialize in comprehensive sump pump solutions, offering professional installation and repair services. Each project includes assessing your homes specific water challenges, selecting an appropriate pump, preparing the sump pit, and connecting the discharge system. Our team ensures that the float switch and electrical setup operate seamlessly, providing dependable protection from basement flooding.

This technician explained everything he was doing, his findings which included a photo from the camera he used in the sewer line, and what needed to be done in a thorough and professional manner. His findings confirmed my suspicions that my daughter and I were taken advantage by Roto-Rooter in Columbia and bilked out of thousands of dollars and the problem was never fixed! Tree roots in a sewer line are not a "soft blockage." Consumers beware of Roto-Rooter!

Another great job by Franklin Plumbing and Antonio! We had a plumbing problem in our basement and we were having a family gathering starting that evening for a whole weekend. Antonio came out quickly because of the predicament we were in. The problem was pretty complex and required a lot of work and new parts which had to be ordered but, Antonio and Franklin Plumbing came up with a quick fix to help us get through our event and then came back out to fully fix the problem after the holiday. Very thoughtful, professional, helpful, and they helped us manage the costs of a big repair by providing options.

In the last couple of weeks we used Franklin Plumbing for two unrelated issues. We were very pleased with their expertise, effectiveness and polite, professional approach. Jantonio (and his assistant on one of the issues) did a great job! Im glad to be able to recommend them. In addition, the office staff (I spoke with Sonia/Sonya) were very helpful and polite - as good as it gets. :)

We called Franklin Plumbing based on ratings and reviews and couldnt have been happier with their promptness and professionalism. Our water heater was leaking and needed to be replaced. Our technician, Eli, came out, assessed the whole house, and replaced the unit on the same day. We had a second unit that needed to be replaced and he took care of that as well. Eli was very knowledgeable, thorough, polite, and extremely hard-working. Hes an exceptional young man. We highly recommend Franklin Plumbing.

Had water leaking from my ceiling and called this company to identify the problem. Dispatch had someone out right away. My technician JC was very nice and knowledgeable about my issue. He offered different scenarios and did not overcharge me for things I didn't need. I greatly appreciate his honesty and professionalism. I can't speak about the other technicians from this company but JC is great!! I would definitely recommend this company

Pricing was also really reasonable with what we had going on. I highly recommend Franklins Plumbing!
