"My wife and I contacted Radon Removal, Inc. to install a new radon mitigation system in our house. I cannot say enough good things about this company or the service they provided. Randy took the time to answer all of my questions over the phone to make me fully understand the process and granular details before we committed to the install. Then, once we agreed to go with their service, Josh and Mike installed the system. They were both professional and courteous, kept the worksite clean and were very hard workers. The job took a total of 4 hours to complete, but left with clear instructions as to everything the did, how the system works and what to do if any warranty issues were to arise in the future, however unlikely. My wife and I were thoroughly impressed with how precise and exacting their work was, both in routing the plumbing of the system, and how unobtrusive they made the system appear in our house. We are still awaiting the results of our followup radon test, but can easily recommend the guys at Radon Removal, Inc. for a truly outstanding job, start to finish. Bravo!"
When possible, the pipe is run to the garage, and the fan is in the garage attic.
When there is no way to get the pipe through the interior of the building, the fan and pipe will be outside.

"I discovered the leak in the water heater in the late afternoon. They were at my house before 8 the next morning. Work was done by 10:30AM. Neat and clean. Todd was very professional and courteous. I threw in a bit of a curve when I asked to add a leak pan but he was able to accommodate me. The overall cost was a bit more than expected but you're over a barrel when your water heater is leaking. And because of a bad cold water supply valve, I had no water in the house, so I was really pinched. I wished I had asked about energy efficiency options when scheduling the work."

They showed up exactly on time.  They had a challenging task of replacing a faucet assembly that was rusted in place, with a faucet that I had purchased.  They were in an out in less than .5 hours.  They were extremely professional and considerate as I was working on the floor directly below them.  A piece that was installed cam loose a few days later, and they were there in a few hours to make sure it was repaired.  It has been three months and all is great.  It was a tough job - as they had to bust out the old faucet, but they stuck to their original Angie's List advertised price.

"Not good. The water leaks had caused black mold that had to be repaired. When repairs were completed 3 months later, the valves still leaked from the stem when turned on. It was past 60 days so I had to pay another $100 service fee to have the water leaks fixed. He tightened the packing and quoted $350 to replace the valves. Sheesh."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Yes. Hard water is what causes scale buildup, and a whole-house filter provides numerous benefits beyond water softening. Any water that enters your home will go through the filter, which cleans up all water that you will use for cooking, bathing, and drinking. A whole-house water filter also blocks harmful particles like heavy metals.

Most experts agree there’s not much difference health-wise between hard water versus soft water. That said, hard water is more likely to cause skin dryness and issues that go along with it, like an itchy or flaky scalp. Hard water can also decrease the life span of your household appliances and make it more difficult for soap to do its job.

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

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.

Some shower water softeners are effective, but this isn’t always the case. Most shower filters only filter out chlorine, not hard minerals like calcium. Other shower filters can't handle the demand in homes with very hard water. It's also important to change the filters on your shower filters. Failure to regularly swap out old filters will make the filter ineffective over time.
