"Not very happy with them. They installed a new Lennox last year and sent up their "best" installers. They showed up late, left a huge mess both inside and outside of my house, but worst of all, they didn't bother to check the gas supply line. I didn't notice that there was a gas leak until the next day (a Saturday) and by then, my entire basement was full of gas fumes. I turned off the supply line and then called them and left an emergency message about the leak, but they didn't show up until the following Monday. When the new technician showed up on Monday, he was shocked at the shoddy workmanship that the techs and had to completely replace the supply line. He assured me that the two techs that did the installation were "chewed out" by their manager. One year later, I had a duct cleaning company come out and noticed that the exhaust pipe was screwed into plenum access, so now I have two holes in my plenum. Unfortunately, there are no other furnace contractors that will service Lennox furnaces up in the mountains, so I have to use their overpriced service to have my annual servicing. I'd think twice about using these guys for any new install."

"Definitely not reliable! Hired them to replace a lift pump in my house and less than a month after install it caught on fire and flooded our basement because a loose pipe was left in the pit and caused the motor to burn out. Second plumber came out and replaced pump but did not seal it. Now every time water runs through the pump the basement fills with sewage smell. Was told by third plumber nothing they could do. Management told me if the pump is working there is nothing they can do."

Friendly Plumbing is a family owned business that has been in operation for over 10 years. Started by Edward and Charles Martinez, both licensed journeymen, Friendly Plumbing has a combined 30 years in the plumbing trade. We specialize in water heater replacement: traditional as well as tank-less water heaters. We are a full service remodel plumbing company. Residential and commercial projects are what we do best! We can guarantee two things, the best quality work at the best price!!!

"I had almost the exact same experience as Derek. Charles came recommended by a radon company that was installing our radon system, and we hired him to address an issue with our hot water heater. The water heater problem turned out to be a simple blockage and vent issue, but we also hired Charles for a few other small projects around the house. Unfortunately, one of the simplest items he installed was done incorrectly. He even demonstrated a ?test? in front of us?clearly knowing it wasn?t properly installed?and since he did it right there, we didn?t think to double-check until after he left and we had already paid. Since then, Charles has bailed on us about four times after promising to come back and fix it. Before leaving, he also mentioned there was a one-year warranty on all his work, which now appears to be complete nonsense. At this point, he has stopped responding entirely, and we?ll have to hire another plumber to fix his mistakes. Do not recommend using Charles "

FAQs for water softener service projects in Thornton, CO

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.

Water softeners are worth the money if you live in an area with hard water. Hard water is safe to drink, but it poses serious threats to your plumbing system. The minerals in hard water will gradually build up on the inside walls of your pipes, reducing water flow to your fixtures. The minerals can also gradually corrode your plumbing system, reduce its lifespan, and increase the risk of leaks. Hard water also makes soap and detergent less effective. Water softener systems can solve all these issues, making them a great investment.

It’s possible to install a water softener yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Water softeners require working with copper pipes and electrical wiring, neither are suitable tasks for most DIYers. Plus, working with water and electricity together is dangerous and could pose a risk to your safety. Water softeners also need to be calibrated so that they don’t make your water too soft, as soft water poses just as many risks as hard water. Overall, it’s well worth hiring a local water softener installer to place your water softener system.

The cost to install a water softener system is $1,500 on average, ranging between $200 and $6,000. The labor for water softener work typically costs between $150 and $1,000, so you can add that to your equipment costs to get an accurate total. Your price will depend on many factors, including the following:

  • System capacity 

  • Home size

  • Water hardness levels

  • Type of water softener

  • Presence of electricity in the installation area

  • Local permit costs

Your water softener size is based on your total household water consumption. In most cases, you can assume the average household member will use around 75 gallons per day. Multiply that by the number of people in your home, then multiply by 10 (for the typical grains per gallon). You’ll get a number in grains that should help roughly size your water softener. However, it’s best to hire a professional to install your system and use more exact numbers, like your exact average water consumption per day and starting water hardness.
