Way over charged for the little work they did. And will not use them again. Replaced two parts and over charged on each one. Unbelievable!! Not worthy of one star!

Tom and Andrew were excellent at diagnosing and explaining our plumbing issues. They were able to take care of the issue (including cutting concrete) within the day. So friendly and easy to work with! Hope to not have any more plumbing problems, but we certainly know to Benjamin Franklin Plumbing if we do! Thanks, guys!

We really enjoyed the tech working on our project. His name was Andrew. Very informative very thorough very professional. Five stars all the way.
Andrew stayed late and worked hard. Very nice and good communication.Update: I still think he was very nice but after my dad saw how he left the plumbing he was not happy. We paid $500 for them to basically destroy our plumbing. I’m attaching a pic on how they left it and I called because I had no water. Water was frozen and they used a heat gun but couldn’t get it back to working. So they charged me $500. That’s a bit ridiculous. At the time I was paying I wasn’t sure since I don’t know about plumbing but talking with my dad is when I realized they weren’t fair. And stayed late was he worked 3 hrs. Till 6 pm ish. Nothing against the plumber maybe he wasn’t trained right. Idk but y’all be careful with them. Would do 1 star but he was nice so 2 stars.

Andrew, in plumbing, was friendly, competent and exhibited a great depth of skill and knowledge in his field. He performed needed maintenance on my Iron Filter, Water Softener, the kitchen sink "P" trap that needed cleaning, as well as replacing a poorly performing bathtub faucet that had a sloppy-fitting water diverter to the shower head.We also reviewed several safety features I had installed in 2022 after a major "water event".... to make sure they were still ready and operating namely: a primary sump pump back-up power system called the "Pump Spy" and a "Water Cop" water shut-off system. All safety features were still in top working condition.I am very appreciative of Andrew's professionalism in accomplishing this work today on 1-24-2025.I can recommend this positive experience to others as well!Thank you,Mairi

We used Ben Franklin for a clogged drain. We had never used them before and the ease of booking an appointment online for the same day was fantastic. Two very polite and friendly young men came and did a great job. The task turned out to be a much bigger challenge than expected and they kept us informed as to what they were doing and why it was taking some extra time. We really appreciated this and we felt the bill was very fair.

From the minute Tom showed up at our home he was professional and showed our home and family respect. Tom was completely transparent through the diagnosis process, and explained to me the plan of attack. With his decades of experience he was able to fix the issue, and you could see the pride he takes in his job.I will never use another plumbing company, and I don't say this lightly. Tom made us feel like family and we are so appreciative.Thanks again Tom and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing.Sincerely your new forever customer.

Trevor was great. He was prompt on the initial service call and gave me a good explanation of the quote and what was needed to fix the plumbing issues. In addition himself and his company worked with myself and my home warranty company that were being a pain. Even though Benjamin Franklin usually doesn't fill these types of forms out for customers but they did and I greatly appreciate Trevor and the whole team as well as Kate for their patience with my emails and request of information. Truly great service.

SouthSota Benjamin Franklin Plumbing Reliable Plumber in Elko, MN

We all know the panic that sets in when water appears where it doesn’t belong. You might be cooking dinner, only to spot a slow drip under the sink. Or you run downstairs to grab laundry and find a puddle pooling around your water heater. Life moves quickly, and plumbing troubles can throw everything off-kilter faster than expected. We get it, and we’re here to help. Our SouthSota Benjamin Franklin Plumbing team wants to ensure you never feel alone when tackling leaks, clogs, or broken fixtures.

We serve Elko because neighbors should look out for one another. A faucet that won’t stop dripping at 3 a.m. or a toilet threatening to overflow right before guests arrive can lead to restless nights and embarrassing moments. We’ve been there, and we understand the worry. That’s why we show up with a smile, respectful attitudes, and the tools needed to solve the problem so you can return to your daily routine.

Reliable Plumber

Our Plumbing Services

We designed our range of services to meet the varied needs of Elko homes and businesses.

Below is an overview:

  • Drain Cleaning: Grease, soap scum, hair, or other debris can block drains, slowing water flow. We clear clogs and help you avoid further buildup with practical tips.
  • Pipe Repair and Replacement: From pinhole leaks to major breaks, we quickly locate and fix problems. If an entire section of pipe is beyond rescue, we swap in new, durable materials.
  • Water Heater Repair and Installation: Cold showers on a winter morning can rattle even the toughest among us. We repair everything from thermostats to heating elements, and if needed, we can replace the whole unit with a more efficient model.
  • Toilet, Faucet, and Fixture Services: A toilet that runs non-stop or a faucet that drips can drive you up a wall. We fix or install replacements, aiming to save water and restore peace.
  • Sump Pump Maintenance and Installation: A healthy sump pump keeps your basement dry. We maintain, repair, or install new pumps to defend against flood damage during heavy storms.
  • Garbage Disposal Repair: A jammed disposal can slow down your kitchen sink. We handle repairs or new installations so you can enjoy a smooth cleanup routine.
  • Sewer Line Inspections and Repairs: Slow drains and bad odors sometimes point to sewer troubles. We use modern methods to spot cracks or clogs and fix them without unnecessary upheaval to your property.
  • Water Softener Services: Hard water can leave deposits on fixtures and appliances. We install and service softeners so you can say goodbye to mineral stains.
  • Emergency Plumbing Response: We know plumbing mishaps don’t keep regular hours. That’s why we do our best to address urgent issues, day or night, to reduce damage and stress.

Our approach is rooted in listening. We take the time to hear your concerns, pinpoint the cause, and outline what needs to happen next. No one likes hidden costs or vague diagnoses. We commit to keeping you in the loop from the first knock on the door to the final cleanup.

When to Call a Plumber in Elko, MN

We often hear people ask if an issue is serious enough to warrant a call. In our experience, prompt attention can save money and prevent bigger problems later.

Below are some moments when getting professional help makes a difference:

  • Persistent Dripping Faucets: A minor drip may not feel urgent, but those droplets add up on your monthly bill, and that extra moisture can invite mold or mildew over time.
  • Low Water Pressure: Taking a shower with a weak trickle can be frustrating. If pressure drops suddenly, it could indicate a hidden leak or a valve problem.
  • Slow or Clogged Drains: Water that stands in your sink or tub or refuses to clear completely may indicate a buildup in the pipes. Quick action can stop a partial blockage from growing worse.
  • Leaking Water Heater: Any water around the heater’s base or rust-colored stains on the tank signal potential trouble. A bigger headache might occur if the entire unit fails.
  • Sump Pump Issues: If your basement relies on a sump pump, the last thing you need is for it to fail during heavy rain. Strange noises or constant cycling indicate problems that need fixing immediately.
  • Overflowing Toilets: Most of us have had that moment of dread, watching the water rise fast in the bowl. If plunging doesn’t solve the issue, more investigation is needed.
  • Unusual Noises in Pipes: Hearing banging or rattling whenever you run water could mean high pressure, loose fittings, or air in the lines.
  • Sudden Spike in Water Bills: A jump in cost without changing your habits could hint at a hidden leak that’s slowly damaging your walls or foundation.
  • Frozen or Burst Pipes: Minnesota winters can freeze pipes solid. If you lose water flow or see evidence of a burst, call fast before additional damage occurs.

If you encounter any of these situations or suspect something’s wrong, we’re ready to help. No one should have to lose sleep over plumbing mishaps.
