Customers say: Quality work

Our company works with contractors as a sub-contractor for installation of plumbing, heating and environmental air systems. The company also works on home and commercial remodels and retro fitting heating and water heating systems.

"I have been working with statewide for 7 plus years. They cut our houses gas bill by 45% with their embassy boiler. Also, I read a review on this page about a lawsuit against statewide. Since Statewide cant post a rebuttle to the bad review below I will. Statewide was not contracted by the reviewer posted that slammed statewide and suid Statewide. Statewide was contracted to replace boilers by the previous owner, not this angies list reviewer. The new owner sued statewide and lost because he didnt own the house at the time of the installation and was buying the building after the fact. Also, the house didnt have very much baseboard copper piping so the house was cold because the baseboard was too small. Anyone who knows heating knows a boiler needs enough pipe to radiate heat. The review below is slander and cost a lot of good business to a great company. I called Statewide today, in five minutes he told me to press reset and heat turned on. It was a sensor and he fixed out w/no OT."

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.

Hard water doesn’t pose a risk to your physical health when you drink it. In fact, drinking hard water can help ensure you get enough of essential minerals like calcium in your daily diet. However, extremely hard water can contribute to dry skin and make your scalp itchy if you wash your hair in it too often.

You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.

If your water softener repair is fairly straightforward, like a simple filter replacement, then you can probably do it yourself with little risk. However, anything beyond a simple fix should be addressed by someone with extensive plumbing expertise to avoid costly water softener problems, like leaks. 

That said, even simple problems can be complicated to diagnose, particularly if your water softener is attached to a whole-house treatment system. So, unless you feel absolutely certain that the problem is an easy fix that you can take on yourself, it's probably best to hire a plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.

Water purifiers and water softeners serve different purposes, so the best one will depend on your particular needs. Water purifiers remove contaminants from water (such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals), leaving you with ultra-clean and safe water. However, water softeners remove minerals from your water so that the water doesn’t leave stains around your house or cause plumbing problems.
