"After speaking with Ryan, I was given an honest estimate without possible issues and cost. We had alternating water pressure and sometime no water at all. They were here within the hour. They quickly resolved the issue and assured us that we had plenty of water in our well and the new pump that they installed had a five year warranty. Best type of home service that we have experienced. Ryan was professional and honest!"

"It took a really, really long time. They usually like bring one and have them on the truck because I've something on TV about scam artists that claims that your leak is worst than it really is. It needs to be tightened and really they're trying to sell you the hot water heater on the truck. But I've already tested all stuff that would be the easy fix so I can fix it myself. It took like 2 to 3 hours for them to go get a hot water heater. The communication is good. I guess their work ethic is good. There were some updates that they had to do like it's the way it's hooked up, like they see mechanisms or something that they explained to me."
"Best water conditioning company in the Charlotte area! After dealing with high pressure commissioned sales reps from other water companies, I called Kim. I told her my story and she was so sweet. Scott the owner came to our house within a day, tested our water and made an honest recommendation without putting any pressure on us. Within a week, Mark came out and got everything installed and even moved the water shut off valve so it was more convenient for us. I immediately noticed a difference in our water and I am so happy with the results! They are great people and I highly recommend them!"
"Cory installed a tankless water heater for me. He was very knowledgeable of the Rinnai product line and proposed several options. He arranged the electricians and scheduled the inspections promptly. All work was completed quickly and professionally. He answered all my questions and took time to explain things to me I have since hired him to do more plumbing work for me. I would highly recommend him."
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 have many benefits. The most important one is converting previously hard water—water with too many minerals—to more usable, easier water. When we say easier water, we mean water that’s easier to digest, less harsh on skin and clothes, and builds up less in the water system. Softer water may lead to lower energy costs and will extend the lifespan of all appliances that use water.
Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can dry out hair, make it brittle, and leave a film on the hair and scalp that may cause irritation. Hard water also doesn't rinse out shampoo and conditioner effectively, which can lead to product buildup that makes hair look dull and limp. You may also find you need to use more shampoo to get a good lather in hard water.
Drinking hard water is not known to have any negative health impacts. Using hard water can lead to dry skin and hair, and the minerals in hard water can build up in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Hard water is more of a threat to your plumbing than it is to your health.
The most accurate way to determine whether you have hard water is to purchase a water test kit from a hardware store or send a tap water sample to a lab. But there are some signs you can look out for without professional testing. For instance, if you're consistently dealing with mineral stains on your glassware, windows, and shower doors, you're likely to have hard water. Hard water can also make it harder to lather and rinse soap, so if you're struggling to work up a good lather in the shower, hard water might be the culprit.
