"It went good. Randy took time and inspected all my drain lines and water lines. Ended up the clog was so bad he could not unstop it. After inspecting all my drains he made a recommendation to get all of the copper lines out and replace with pvc and found i had 3 splits in copper lines i was unaware of. Then he noticed my copper water lines had a couple very small leaks around the sink and the hot water heater. He recommended that I replace them and he installed new peck lines. Was a lot more than expected but it need to really be done. Great service, very friendly and professional."

"Pro: 1. Quick Turnaround (Called on Sunday , came fixing the leakage on Monday.) 2. Free evaluation (they will come out to test and estimate the repair cost before they start working on it) It went very well. Called 3 other companies on Angie's List, they all either went into voicemail or wanna charge a few hundreds before they even come checking the issues. Will definitely recommend to my neighbors in Highlands."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Selecting the right system depends on testing your water to understand the contaminants present and considering your household's water usage and specific needs, such as removing specific contaminants.

Most of the U.S. has hard water, especially across portions of the West and Midwest. The areas with the hardest water include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and New York. You’ll find soft water in parts of New England, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii.

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.

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.

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.
