"Tim the owner was excellent with his knowledge of water softeners. I had a system in place when I purchased my house. It was a Mickey Moused setup with a timer that was in the way of the tank replenishment water hose. Tim looked at the system and completely rebuilt it in one day. Brand new timer, brand new resin, and replaced the well pressure tank. Very happy with his work and wife is even happier we don’t have hard water anymore. I also had Tim do work at a rental property I own. It was a Sunday morning and my renters called me up stating the bathroom sink is backing up and slowly draining. I went over thinking it was a blockage in the trap but the trap was clear. This was something deeper in the pipe. I called Tim and he came right over, mind you this was a Sunday morning before church. He snaked the pipe and found a mass of hair and debris surrounding a bobby-pin. I had a tenant two years prior that wore bobby-pins daily. Definitely from her!!!! Tim is very knowledgeable about plumbing and I would not hesitate calling him for help when I’m in a bind. Matter of fact…….if you are reading this Tim, I could have my well water pump changed!!! Give me a call…….."

The install day was spotless, both installers were professional, meticulous and thorough. Cannot recommend these guys enough. Thanks again for an amazing job."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is safe to bathe in yellow water. The iron or tannin content won’t harm your skin, and soap will clean you whether your water is clear or yellow. If you find bathing in yellow water problematic, you can ask a pro to inspect your plumbing and determine how to get your water clear again.

The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.

The main difference between water softeners and water filters is that softeners remove hard minerals from the water, while filters have more of a blanket effect, removing all contaminants above a certain size. Filters are also much less expensive to install and protect against bacteria and other impurities. Depending on your water supply, you may need both.

To get utilities set up on a property, you first have to contact the local department of planning to determine whether your property is able to connect to public utilities. From there, you can work with a structural engineer and/or a building contractor to design the layout of utility lines on the property. The pros will need this information as they begin securing building permits before they can start adding lines.

If your property isn’t able to connect to public utilities, you’ll need to consider working with pros to develop a comfortable off-grid home that will meet your needs.

You can use a commercial water repellent treatment for glass on your shower doors to prevent water spots. Take care to only apply the product to glass. Letting air circulate also helps prevent water spots, as water is less likely to remain on the glass for a long time with good air circulation. Run your vent fan, open a window, and leave the shower door open for about half an hour after using the shower.
