"They were great. They were very prompt when I called them, they responded within a very timely manner, efficient, and professional. I have a little concern about the leak around the floor where the water heater had leaked and I told them about that and he got a plywood to put down over the floor for the water heater to rest on so that it won't go directly on the floor and it would give the floor time to dry and air out and he came out of his way to do it."

"He was able to quickly diagnose that the water leak from the water heater was a result of a ruptured tank, resulting in the need to replace the entire water heater."
"On Friday, January 21, 22, our water pressure was minimal. Got a referral from Robert A. Holman. Called Doby at 4pm. They arrived before 5pm. Professional, polite and offered assistance that evening. Forecasted temp was to be 19 degrees. We said tomorrow was fine. Said they’ll come at 9:00a. Arrived on time. Pump is 400ft. Pulled the pump. Diagnosis-wire was frayed. Gave us 2 options. (Pump was installed in 2005) Could repair wire or replace pump. (easily could of said pump was bad) I wouldn’t of known if it was bad or good. Jonathan and Chris were honest and professional. We decided to replace the pump. By 2pm, job completed. Entire area was cleaned. When Jonathan gave us the invoice, he explained all details. Today, is January 23. No issues. SO impressed with everyone, from the lady who answered our call, to Jonathan and Chris. I recommend DOBY 110%."
While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.
Generally, it is safe to bathe in yellow water, as the color is often caused by iron, tannins, or rust, which won't harm your skin. Soap will still clean you effectively, though the water might leave stains. However, if the water has an unusual smell or you suspect contamination, avoid bathing and contact a plumber for an inspection. A professional can also help if you find bathing in yellow water problematic and want to determine how to get your water clear again.
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.
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.
The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.
Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.
