Company History

Joe Franklin Plumbing began in 1964 with Joseph Franklin. The company grew slowly and built a local reputation for steady work and practical repairs. More than 50 years after the first projects, Gregory Franklin reopened and carried the name forward. The business keeps simple goals: fix the immediate problem, and do the job right so it lasts.

Leadership

Gregory Franklin leads the team today. He learned the trade in the family business and returned to preserve his father’s name. Joe Franklin Plumbing was the first minority Master Plumber in Prince George’s County in the 1960s, a fact the company still notes with quiet pride. The owner stays involved locally and keeps crews working in nearby neighborhoods.
