We’ve been solving Tampa’s toughest plumbing problems for over 30 years, from Bloomingdale subdivisions to Tampa Palms estates, and throughout Town ‘n’ Country, Sulphur Springs, Jasmine Estates, Lowry Park, and Port Richey.

Water leaks never wait for convenient times. Whether it’s a burst pipe flooding your basement at 2 AM or a slow leak staining your ceiling, our emergency repair team responds 24/7. We use advanced leak detection technology including acoustic sensors and thermal imaging to find hidden leaks without unnecessary demolition. Tampa’s coastal environment, limestone foundation, and afternoon thunderstorms make leak detection critical to preventing structural damage. Our repair methods range from simple fixture replacement to pipe relining, always choosing the most cost-effective solution that provides lasting results for your Tampa Bay area home.
Common leak repairs we handle:
- Pipe joint leaks

Drain Clearing & Clog Removal
Clogged drains disrupt your entire household. Our professional drain cleaning goes beyond temporary fixes. We start with video camera inspection to identify the exact location and nature of the blockage. For tough clogs, we employ hydro jetting that uses high-pressure water at 4,000 PSI to scour pipes clean, removing years of buildup including grease, mineral deposits, and tree roots that thrive in Tampa’s subtropical climate and limestone-rich environment. This thorough approach prevents recurring clogs and extends pipe life.
Drain Services Include:
- Kitchen sink unclogging
- Toilet repair and unclogging
- Main sewer line cleaning
- Shower/tub drain clearing

FAQs About Plumbing Repairs
We offer 24/7/365 emergency plumbing service throughout Tampa, Brandon, New Tampa, Temple Terrace, Valrico, Bloomingdale, Tampa Palms, Town ‘n’ Country, Sulphur Springs, Jasmine Estates, Lowry Park, and Port Richey. Our typical response time for emergencies is 60-90 minutes. For situations involving active flooding or water damage, we prioritize dispatch to get a certified plumber to your location as quickly as possible. We maintain multiple service vehicles throughout Hillsborough County to ensure rapid response when you need us most.
We believe in transparent pricing. While there may be an after-hours service fee for late-night, weekend, or holiday emergencies, we always provide upfront pricing before beginning any work. The value of immediate service often prevents thousands of dollars in additional water damage. Our diagnostic fee may be waived when you proceed with the recommended repair. You’ll receive a clear written estimate, and we never begin work without your approval.

This depends on the extent of corrosion and the location of the problem. Many Tampa homes, especially older properties in historic neighborhoods and near the bay, have galvanized pipes that corrode due to salt air and hard water with high mineral content. While we can repair small sections, extensive corrosion usually means replacement provides better long-term value. We’ll thoroughly inspect your plumbing system and provide honest recommendations about whether repair or replacement makes the most sense for your situation and budget.
Our licensed plumbers will assess several factors: the age of your plumbing system, the extent of damage, the frequency of repairs, coastal corrosion effects, and your long-term plans for the home. We’ll provide you with all the information needed to make an informed decision. Sometimes a simple repair solves the problem for years. Other times, investing in replacement prevents recurring issues and adds value to your Tampa home. We present all options with upfront pricing so you can choose what works best for you.
Yes, we regularly work with homeowners insurance companies on water damage claims. We can provide detailed documentation of the damage, our findings, and repair estimates that insurance adjusters need. While we can’t guarantee what your specific policy covers, we’ll work with you to provide all necessary paperwork. For emergency situations, we recommend calling us immediately to stop the water damage, then notifying your insurance company as soon as possible.
We offer various discounts throughout the year, including savings for seniors, military personnel, and first-time customers. We also provide seasonal promotions and online booking discounts. Ask our customer service team about current offers when you call. Additionally, our maintenance membership plans provide ongoing savings and priority service. Note that discounts cannot typically be combined with other offers.

Emergencies Happen; Disasters Can be Avoided
Plumbing emergencies can strike unexpectedly, causing stress and potential damage to your property. But if you take immediate action and call Benjamin Franklin Plumbing early, there’s a good chance that we can limit the consequences. Our emergency plumbing services are available 24/7. Any time you face a situation that poses an immediate risk to your property, health, or safety – burst pipes, major leaks, sewer back-ups sewer lines, complete access to clean water, and more – you are in a plumbing emergency. Take these steps to mitigate the impact:
- Turn off the water: If you discover a major leak or burst pipe, shut off the water main valve.
- Secure your water heater: If your gas water heater leaks, extinguish the pilot light, then close the water main. If it’s an electric water heater, close the water main first, then turn off the heater’s power.
- Mop up standing water: Small leaks can cause big problems, from warped flooring to mold. Contain the escaping water with buckets, towels, and mops until we arrive to fix the leak.
- Don’t use harsh chemicals: Caustic chemicals can damage pipes. If you have a clogged drain, use a plunger. If that doesn’t work, call us.
- Silence the drip: If a faucet drips even when it is completely turned off, turn off the water supply using the shutoff valve under the sink. Fast attention will save water while restoring your faucet to dependable service.
