Customers say: Quality work

"Todd surprised me when he knew who initially installed our water softener. He did his apprentice ship under him. He explained and showed me the problem and what it would take to solve it. I told him to go ahead and do the fix. He had it all completed within 2.5 hours. Job well Done. We will be using him as our plumber from now on."

"It was 5:30 on a Monday morning I got up to get ready for work, I turned on the faucet and all I got was a sucking sound. No water! Eric from Mosman Wellworks responded to my request on HomeAdvisor by around 6:30. He said he would have someone at my house by around 8:30 and sure enough the technician was at my home by 8:30. He ran tests and checked the system and diagnosed it as the pressure switch and made some additional recommendations and had us up and running in no time. They were prompt, knowledgeable and courteous and very fair priced. I would use them again and I would recommend them."

"Justin called be back very quickly. He listened to my problem and said he would take a look. He was at my house an hour later. He was very meticulous in tracking down the problem which ended up being easier on the pocket book then I thought it was going to be. Justin is what every home owner wants in a tech, easy to talk to, he listens and he is very good at his profession. My well pipe has been there since 1988. The cap on the pipe was not a bug proof cap when they installed it. The company that changed out the well pump in 2018 never mentioned it. Justin saw the bugs, recommended a bug proof cap and I agreed. Bottom line he did everything a professional would do. I highly recommend Advanced Well & Home Solutions."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Hard water stains can be a headache because they will reoccur as long as hard water flows through. Thankfully, hard water stains are not permanent. With the right tools and an appropriate cleaning routine, you can prevent hard water stains from ever building up. However, you might feel like you are stuck in a constant cleaning cycle. In that case, you may consider hiring a contractor to perform routine cleaning.

Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can dry out hair, make it brittle, and leave a film on the hair and scalp that may cause irritation. Hard water also doesn't rinse out shampoo and conditioner effectively, which can lead to product buildup that makes hair look dull and limp. You may also find you need to use more shampoo to get a good lather in hard water.

A tankless water heater should be at least 10 feet away from a water softener, although the pros you hire for water softener installation can help you determine the correct distance. These two units need to have some distance between them to prevent hot water from the tankless water heater from flowing backward into the water softener when it runs a regeneration cycle.

Whether you need a license or permit for water softener installation depends on your location. Some municipalities require the installer to hold a plumbing license, while others may only require a permit and an inspection. In some cases, both a permit and a licensed installer are necessary, and some areas have no requirements at all. Often, only certified plumbers and electricians are allowed to pull the necessary permits. To find out the specific regulations in your area, you can contact your local building department. Alternatively, a local water softener installer or plumber will be familiar with the requirements and can typically pull the permits for you. Regardless of local laws, it is always recommended to hire a licensed professional to ensure the system is sized and installed correctly. You can use tools like Angi’s state licensing tool to verify an installer's license status.
