"The yearly service works out to be $50 a month. We've had two water heaters replaced through them because of a fault in them. They're usually very responsive. I like that I can request the service online. The only thing is, I wish that there was a better avenue for emergency services. If something doesn't work right away usually it takes a couple of days to get someone out and sometimes you can't wait two days without water."

"Overall, I was satisfied with the service and I would use them again.

They told me they would arrive between 8:30-9:30 and they showed up at 8:45 and were done about an hour later. We went over everything I needed done and they warned me about some problems areas that might not get quite as clean as I might hope. I don't have high quality fabric on my sofas, and so milk, water, throw/spit up has left water marks on them from my toddler. They warned that the marks might still be there even after cleaning. They said the same thing about the carpet since I have two dogs. This was not my first time having carpets & upholstery cleaned so I was prepared for the warnings.

After the couches were cleaned, alot of water marks showed up and they took off $45 from my total because they felt bad. But when the sofas fully dried, many of the marks went away. The cushions looked alot better than before they started, and they smelled clean too. Like I said, I don't have high quality fabric on them, I wasn't expecting them to be in new condition, but the guys worked really h****** trying to get them as clean as they could.

I have no complaints about the family room carpet or stairs. They look great and I love knowing they have been professionally cleaned. They also moved my sofas, which I wasn't expecting or even asked, and that was an added bonus.

The tile in the 1/2 bath got cleaner. I was expecting them to look nicer than how it turned out, but it was only $20 for that room. My husband was much more satisfied than me. I guess I wanted my white grout to look very white again."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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.

Hard water is not considered unhealthy and is safe to drink, cook with, and bathe in. It doesn't pose a risk to your physical health and can even help you get enough essential minerals like calcium in your diet. However, it can negatively affect skin and hair. Using hard water for washing can contribute to dry skin, an itchy scalp, and may worsen conditions like eczema by altering the pH balance. Additionally, some people do not like the taste of hard water.

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.

Drinking hard water is not known to have any negative health impacts. Using hard water can lead to dry skin and hair, and the minerals in hard water can build up in pipes, faucets, and appliances. Hard water is more of a threat to your plumbing than it is to your health.

You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.
