"Callahan Completed the job in approx 4 hours. I think they could have taken more time to verify that > all fixtures were working properly after a water well change. we getting lots of murky water a long after replacement. We needed to clean out all toilet tanks, water softener, dishwasher, and ice maker. etc. . Having said that, I would recommend them for your water well service."

In 1993, Tom Raynor began taking on electrical construction and service jobs across southern New Jersey. With just one assistant and one beat-up truck, Tom crisscrossed the state, building a reputation for his small outfit as one that offered professional, hands-on service and reliable, high-quality results. By 1994, it was official—Raynor Services was born! \n \nSince then, that red pick-up has been upgraded to a fleet of ten fully stocked trucks. We are now a “one-stop shop” service company, specializing in electric, heating, cooling, and generator services. Raynor Services has never lost the spirit of professional, hands-on service that it was founded on. Family-owned and operated, we combine small-business service with big-business expertise. \n \nRaynor technicians are among the best in the industry. Each must complete a rigorous hiring process – including a background check, a drug test, and an HVAC or electrical proficiency examination.

"They are extremely fast and professional. Joe showed up on time and gave me a reasonable price for the project which was replacing a utility faucet and adding shut-off valves to the water lines. He said he would be able to get the parts and have the repair completed within 2 hours after returning. He actually only needed a little over an hour and the repair looks great. I would highly recommend them and will use them again if I need plumbing repairs in the future."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

Yes. To get soft water, you can install a water softening system, which will replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners cost anywhere from $200 to $6,000, depending on the size and complexity of the system. You can either install a water softener for the whole house or just at your shower heads. If you’re sensitive to sodium or potassium, you can install a salt-free water conditioner.

A tankless water heater should be at least 10 feet away from a water softener, although the pros you hire for water softener installation can help you determine the correct distance. These two units need to have some distance between them to prevent hot water from the tankless water heater from flowing backward into the water softener when it runs a regeneration cycle.

To get utilities set up on a property, you first have to contact the local department of planning to determine whether your property is able to connect to public utilities. From there, you can work with a structural engineer and/or a building contractor to design the layout of utility lines on the property. The pros will need this information as they begin securing building permits before they can start adding lines.

If your property isn’t able to connect to public utilities, you’ll need to consider working with pros to develop a comfortable off-grid home that will meet your needs.

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.

The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.
