From Family Business to Growing Franchise: How Abby & Eli Power Expanded with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing
February 12, 2025

Abby and Eli Power’s journey in the plumbing industry started in the early ’90s when they began working for Abby’s dad at Montrose Plumbing and Heating. What began as a family business eventually transformed into a growing franchise with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing and One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning of Montrose.
When Abby’s father retired, the couple purchased the business, continuing to grow their presence in Montrose and nearby towns. However, they soon realized that to meet the growing demand for professional plumbing services in other areas, they needed to think bigger. That’s when franchising with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing became the obvious next step.
By leveraging the resources and support available through Benjamin Franklin Plumbing, Abby and Eli transformed their local business into a scalable operation. Their decision not only created long-term career opportunities for employees but also ensured that homeowners could rely on professional plumbing services year-round.
