"Paul did a great job, as usual. I had an outdoor water faucet that's been steadily losing water pressure, to the point that it was mostly unusable. The problem was a clogged galvanized section of pipe, which he replaced with proper copper piping. He also found a small leak that I didn't even know about in the basement pipes. He replaced a crazy looking shower arm/head with something that now looks like it was installed by a professional. He checked the bathroom and kitchen sinks for any leaks and replaced a jiggling handle on a toilet that was causing it to run after flushing. If you're looking for a great plumber, look no further. Paul is honest, has very reasonable prices, he's very responsive, and he's truly a pleasure to deal with."

"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."

"I was very impressed with how quickly the technician identified the problem and restored operation of our water heater. We then discussed how to proceed given the age of the device. He explained several installation alternatives to my wife and I . We discussed the choices and selected one that satisfied our needs. As previously stated, the representative was able to restart the existing water heater so we have hot water now, but we chose to replace it due to its age. We then scheduled the replacement after choosing one of the alternatives. In summary, we were very satisfied with the service."

"Best plumber I've ever used! He's got a lot of common sense. Whereas other plumbers simply wanted to knock out a wall in order to gain access to pipes ,thereby leaving me (on my own) with a whole new set of problems, William simply said, "Let's make a little door, thereby saving my wall AND gaining access to the pipes. He was actually surprised that this was not previously suggested. He's very honest, he's intelligent and he knows what he's doing. Honest, reasonable and patient. No one I've used has come up to his standards. He's the guy I'll call in the future--that is if he's still available, once people "catch on" to this gem. He's going to get great reviews again and again and then I'll probably have to "wait in line" for his services--but he deserves it."

"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."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
