"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!"
"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. He replaced my pump in the well and I am one satisfied customer. I will call him again. I will be referring him to family and friends. I was satisfied with the hob and the cost was reasonable."

"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!"
"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."
No, a water descaler won't descale pipes. The charged water running through the pipes may very slowly dissolve mineral deposits and hold them inside the water, but it's a very gradual process. If your pipes do need descaling, it's much better to get a local plumber to descale your pipes.
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
There are several things that can shorten the life of a water softener. Homes with very hard water may have to replace the unit sooner because the water softener works harder to filter out the hard minerals. High water usage and infrequent maintenance can also put more strain on a water softener.
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.
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.
