"The Best Pro Plumber was exceptionally professional, friendly and demonstrated a high level of knowledge. He layed down a tarp to pritect my floors and wore booties, he went under my house and went above and beyond to fix my toilet issues. I was very happy with the level of service and I would hire them again. Thanks so much, Regina"

"I have well water and my water was staining my toilets & bathtub- basically everything. I called Ultra Pure and they sent a very nice man, Al, to come test my water. He explained everything to me so it was easy to understand & showed me what systems I needed. Turns out my well water has very low pH and he installed a system for the entire house to fix it. Now all my water is more alkaline. He also put a water purification system at my sink so I have water that I use for drinking, cooking, washing my veggies. I feel safer drinking my water now. I don’t have to buy bottled water anymore which I like. I’m so happy because all of it was very affordable with my fixed income. Now I don’t have to worry about trying to clean stains and be embarrassed when I have people come over to use my bathroom. I would highly recommend them - from beginning to end the process was easy."

"After previously using Rob a year ago had him come to set up a new slop sink in the laundry room.  I had the existing pipes cut to add a hot and cold water line and a drain into the pipes being used for the washing machine.  The job was completed to my expectations.   Very happy with the service and will continue to use and recommend to others."

"My experience with Comfort Basement was excellent from start to finish.  I purchased a special offer through Angie's List so the price was excellent and a very good quality pump was installed.  Jesse was courteous, professional, prompt and explained the pump.  He offered some other possible ideas for our water issues, but did not push us to do more than the original offer.  I would definitely recommend Comfort Basement. We are relieved to have a system which will turn on automatically if our electricity goes off again.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

If your water softener repair is fairly straightforward, like a simple filter replacement, then you can probably do it yourself with little risk. However, anything beyond a simple fix should be addressed by someone with extensive plumbing expertise to avoid costly water softener problems, like leaks. 

That said, even simple problems can be complicated to diagnose, particularly if your water softener is attached to a whole-house treatment system. So, unless you feel absolutely certain that the problem is an easy fix that you can take on yourself, it's probably best to hire a plumber to diagnose and fix the problem.

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

Yes, you can have both a water softener and a water filter. In fact, some manufacturers sell dual water softening and filtration systems that treat hard water and provide clean drinking water. If you’re unsure about what you need or want to discuss your options, reach out to a local water softener installation company.

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 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.
