"Gordon's service tech (Andrew) called to let us know he was 20 minutes away, which was exactly the time we were expecting him. He was courteous, professional and accommodating, and took time to patiently answer our many questions. He pointed out the problem we had with the softener, corrected it, and gave us tips on proper maintenance going forward. Overall, we were impressed with his knowledge, friendliness, and professionalism. Everything you would expect from a quality company like Gordon Water!"
"It went great! I was having issues with my softener, they got the problem solved in a timely and efficient manner and they were very helpful and informative."
"When we bought this house we were planning to renovate the basement. The previous owner had represented that it had never taken on water. The first weekend we were here, however, a torrential rainstorm caused the basement to flood. We realized we needed to waterproof it before we could do anything else, and decided that drain tiling was the safest way to go. Greg was phenomenally responsive from the start. He was very clear about what needed to be done and how they would do it. He also described some optional work but was explicit that it was optional and if it didn't fit within our budget that was that, and he wasn't going to push it the slightest bit. His quote blew away the bigger, well-known firm and was less than or on a par with some others. He also agreed to demo the walls for a slight extra charge, which otherwise would have been a huge convenience for us. Between then and the start of work I emailed him repeatedly with various questions and he responded almost instantly. When his workers took down the paneling we got the unpleasant news that we had huge cracks in the walls that would need to be tuckpointed and in one area a big chunk of foundation was jutting from the wall. That section of the foundation would need to be replaced and a support beam installed. We were more or less at Greg's mercy at this point -- we weren't going to halt work and bring in a series of guys to quote the tuckpointing & repair -- but Greg gave us an estimate of $2,600-$3,000. We can't know for sure, but suspect that this price was more than fair, and Greg stuck to it even though we think the work turned out to be more than they expected. The project manager, Jim, was fantastic to work with throughout, very communicative and accomodating, and the crew of five guys or so was extremely friendly and professional. All in all, A Perfect Crawlspace was a pleasure to work with and we could not be happier with the results. "
"Stay Dry took the stress and worry out of the entire waterproofing process. The entire company was great, from the initial appointment, to the installation crew. I would highly recommend Stay Dry!"
"Hired Clear and Simple Water service after speaking with 5 different companies in the area. Brian discussed options and provided a plan to "fix" my water. First time on well water (15 hardness, with 2.5 ppm Ferrous Iron) and was used to city water systems. Installed a water softener, RO system, and UV sterilization. Quick, easy install. Really happy with the service and would recommend them to anyone. My water is great to drink, shower with, and the build-up is gone from my faucets."
"Canney's was here the next day and replaced the water softener. Got all the instruction on operation and so on, and was completed in a couple hours. I could see a great improvement in my water quality right away. Very Happy with Canney's !"
Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.
Water purifiers and water softeners serve different purposes, so the best one will depend on your particular needs. Water purifiers remove contaminants from water (such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals), leaving you with ultra-clean and safe water. However, water softeners remove minerals from your water so that the water doesn’t leave stains around your house or cause plumbing problems.
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.
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.
The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.
The final price is influenced by several factors, including:
System type, capacity, and complexity
Home size and household water demands
Water hardness levels
Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required
Whether new electrical work is needed
The professional hired and any local permit costs

Water softeners work to remove unwanted minerals from hard water through a filtration and recharge cycle. Keep reading to learn how a water softener works.
There are four common softener alternatives available on the market today. We compare and contrast each one to help you find your best-fit solution in this blog.
Water softeners rid your home of hard minerals and, well, soften your water. Even better, the regeneration process is an automatic cycle that works when you’re least likely to use it.
