"We purchased a Hague Maxpack water softener and reverse osmosis system from North Carolina Water Consultants and couldn’t be more pleased with our choice. The technicians arrived on time, were professional and accommodative of our install location preferences and answered all of our question thoroughly. We highly recommend this company if you are looking for quality whole house water filtration/softener company. You will not be disappointed."
"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!"
"Aaron came out to replace a (PRV) pressure reducing valve. He was professional, kind and did a great job for a reasonable price. Thanks so much Drip Doctors, I will definitely call on you again."
"James Cress Jr Water Pump Company came out to check my well and give me an estimate on work to be performed. He was punctual with his appointment with me.

"I called Pro plumbing to set up an appointment for them to come out and check plumbing for a leak. My appointment was for 12 pm. They ended up coming after 5 pm. The technicians were polite, they put shoe covers on before they entered the home. They spent a few minutes turning off the water supply, looking at the meter box, and told us it was a water main leak. They went to the truck and came back with a $3400. estimate to completely reroute the plumbing through the front wall, up in the ceiling and back to the center of the house. This price did not include having someone to come and repair the holes in the wall or ceiling after their part was complete. The next day I called the townhouse association to see if this was covered and they sent their plumber who was no help and just stated there is a main leak under the slab. (which means it is the homeowners responsibility to pay for repair) I called a leak locator who came out and found the leak right in the front yard, dug a hole and repaired it in less than 2 hours. This could have been a financially devastating needless repair."
"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!"
If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.
It’s unlikely that hard water on its own could cause substantial hair loss or damage, though it’s true that bathing in hard water can cause your scalp to feel itchy or flaky and might dull your hair’s natural shine. Using high-quality shampoo and conditioner or buying a whole-home water softener can decrease these issues.
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.
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.
