"I felt extremely cared for by the whole company. They were clear with what they were able to do, what the problems were, etc.. I was given an extreme amount of attention and I was so impressed with the work that I ended up going ahead and having them replace my hot water heater because I could trust that it was going to be done right."

"This company is great! I asked for a quote to connect the plumbing and septic to a new mobile home we purchased. They were very quick to reply and were very easy to work with. When the time came to do the work, they came out within 2 days of calling them and completed the job in one day. After getting the electric connected and turning on the water, I noticed a leak. Sent them a text and they responded immediately. Came out the next day and said it was a manufacturer issue. I asked if they could repair it and they said no problem It was fixed in about 20 minutes! They offer great prices and excellent service. I would highly recommend them."

Arbor Plumbing & Backflow is a plumbing and irrigation company based out of Garner, N.C. Residential/Commercial new construction and renovations. We empower our staff with the tools, capability, authority and responsibility to do their jobs well!

"Beware of this company! I am a general contractor and have never seen a company run so poorly. I tried them out because of their great Google reviews, but unfortunately it did not work out and I had to fire them. I had to call multiple people multiple times to try scheduling work, they were not on time and just generally unprofessional. Obviously, I will not be using them again. Here is a direct quote from and email I received from my customer asking me to bring in another plumber: Some specific concerns include: Lack of Property Protection – Larry does not use shoe covers, floor coverings, or other protective measures. He also does not clean up before leaving. Kitchen Plumbing Rough-In – He left a significant mess in the kitchen that I had to clean myself when he roughed in the kitchen items. Work Under the House – Nails, wood scraps, and water were left behind. He also moved and failed to replace the plastic encapsulating my crawl space, and insulation was left out of place. Kitchen Work – His latest trip to the house, Larry rushed to gather materials to work in the kitchen, but did not complete the work, leaving the materials out. Powder Room Rough-In – He failed to protect my flooring and left debris in my cabinet, which was later moved to the garage. He also discarded scrap piping in my front planter. Wall Cut-Out – He rushed to leave without reinforcing the 2x4s, in the powder room requiring additional work after the flooring is complete. He was only at the house for an hour and had to depart since lives far away. I was expecting him to install items in the kitchen and rough in the bathroom. Nothing was done in the kitchen and minimal was done in the powder room. Tracking Debris – Drywall dust and wood shavings were tracked throughout the house, leaving me with over an hour of cleanup. Some trash was even left in my wife’s office. The mess he left in the bathroom was worse than the mess that you saw under the house. Damage to Cabinets – He nicked a new cabinet door and did not take care when placing the items to work in the kitchen. This happened and he did not do any work. This was just from his tools working near the cabinetry."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

No, hard water isn’t dangerous. The added calcium in hard water can contribute to good bone health. However, it can also cause dry skin and hair. If you have dry skin or hair, consider using a water-softening system to help minimize the minerals in your water. Plus, these systems can also add some sodium to your diet. 

There are many possibilities for why your shower’s water pressure is low. It might be a simple-to-fix issue like the water valves being partially turned off, a dirty showerhead or hose, leaks in the plumbing, or an old showerhead. However, low water pressure in the shower could also indicate a larger issue with your home’s plumbing system.

You can use a commercial water repellent treatment for glass on your shower doors to prevent water spots. Take care to only apply the product to glass. Letting air circulate also helps prevent water spots, as water is less likely to remain on the glass for a long time with good air circulation. Run your vent fan, open a window, and leave the shower door open for about half an hour after using the shower.

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

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.
