"Sevice tech was on time, professional and took time to explain everything.  However, he said that our central humidifier (attached to the furnace) was shot and needed to be replaced.  His quote to do so was $400 plus.  Had a handyman friend of mine look at it this afternoon.  He unhooked the water line, cleaned everything out and put it back together and everything is working fine. "

"Two basement (cement block) walls had cracks that ran horizontally and about two feet below ground level.  During wet conditions these cracks tended to open wider as the walls slightly bowed inwards.  During dry conditions these cracks closed as the walls returned to (almost) normal vertical position.  There was no water problems but the cracks were aggravating.  Better Basements recommended the power braces in order to prevent the condition from getting any worse and to keep the walls from seasonal bowing.
The cost was less than estimates involving "earth anchors". 
The work was done according to estimate and without any delays or rescheduling.  The entire process took about five hours.  The crew was friendly and explained the process as they went along."

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Yes. To get soft water, you can install a water softening system, which will replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners cost anywhere from $200 to $6,000, depending on the size and complexity of the system. You can either install a water softener for the whole house or just at your shower heads. If you’re sensitive to sodium or potassium, you can install a salt-free water conditioner.

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.

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

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.

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.
