"Lee came out and worked on my well and first started in the basement where the pressure tank is located. He removed a check valve and added a in house drain and got my psi back up to 70 instead of 36. he told me he thought it would be best to give this a try before we pulled the pump, as it would save me a lot of money!! I'm very pleased with the service and it's not a "if" I'll use them again, rather it's a "when" will I use them again. Very honest people and fun to talk to. Thank You Lee, my water pressure is still at 70psi. Jeff"

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.

"Gary is fantstic. He treats you like family. he gives you 3 quotes. first is hte minimum needed to get things up an running. Second is a quote that fits what you need and the 3rd woud be the Cadillac option. He expalins everything and leaves the decion to you. When he came in to do the work, Marcus K was there with himto assist. Both where very curtious and left the site cleaner than when they arrived. i took the middle option and my water has never been so good. i wish i could have done the Cadillac version. Thank You Gary and Marcus. You will be the ones we call when we need help and the ones we recommend to friends and family."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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.

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

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.
