"We came home after a week of vacation and found that we had a hot water leak. We contacted Water Fixers and they sent out a plumber to check out the situation. After that we received a quote for the work to be done. We spoke to Lynda the Office Manager a few times and she was very kind and helpful. We also spoke to Victor, the Owner and he was very nice and professional. Victor explained to us what needed to be done to repair our slab leak. Fortunately the leak itself was small and had not done any damage so they did not have to rip up the floor. They did have to cut several holes under sinks, the hot water heater and in the ceiling in our laundry room as they had to put in new water lines and reroute them into our attic and down the walls into both bathrooms and the kitchen. We ended up having two plumbers doing the work and it took 4 days to complete the job. The two plumbers were very nice and worked very hard to get the leak repaired and made sure to verify that the repair was done correctly and that there were no leaks when they were done. The final bill was a bit more than the quote, but we believe that the charges were fair and we are satisfied with the work that they did. Water Fixers also took care of the leak detection themselves, which was really convenient so we did not have to have two different companies involved. We highly recommend Water Fixers for any plumbing job small or large."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.

The final price is influenced by several factors, including:

  • System type, capacity, and complexity

  • Home size and household water demands

  • Water hardness levels

  • Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required

  • Whether new electrical work is needed

  • The professional hired and any local permit costs

A water softener removes minerals from your drinking water and can make your house water softer. These softeners are designed to extend the lifetime of your plumbing system while also making water safer and more palatable for drinking. Hard water, which is water with a heavy amount of suspended particles, can also cause hair damage, skin irritation, and buildup in your pipes.

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.

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.

The primary difference between a water softener and a water filter lies in what they remove from the water. A water softener is designed to remove hard minerals like calcium and magnesium. In contrast, a water filter has a broader effect, removing various contaminants above a certain size, which can include bacteria and other impurities.

To decide which you need, consider your goal. If you want to eliminate hard minerals, choose a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, a filter is the better option. Filters are also generally less expensive to install. Depending on your water supply, you may need to install both for comprehensive treatment.
