"Grumpy's Drains was the only company who could get us on their schedule within a week. A half hour before our appointment time, Keith called to let me know he was on his way and then showed up exactly on time. My husband had tried to snake the drains multiple times with no success. Keith was able to clean the clog out of the tub in less than 10 minutes (water balloon and hair clog). He then went to work on the pedestal sink. That was a much more difficult clog while working in a tight space. Keith was cheerful, funny and kind the entire time. The first clog cost a flat $178 and the additional drain was $88. It was money well spent and I would absolutely call on this company again in the future."

"They called me when they were on their way to my house and arrived promptly. They fixed everything quickly and explained the problem to me. They also visibly checked the water shutoff in the house, in the garage and talked to me about the efficiency of these, or inefficiencies."

"The team at Roots were very helpful with the removal of an old leaking water heater including working in a tight crawl space to determine the extent of the leak and water damage. They are standing by to install a new tank once the mitigation and restoration in my laundry room has been completed. Matt and Victoria seem genuinely committed to doing good work and providing great customer service and communication."

"About as well as I could hope for. Travis did a great job quickly finding and installing a new water heater. He had to struggle to get a very heavy piece of equipment down a narrow flight of stairs and get the old heater up those stairs. He was more than pleasant the whole time. I would gladly hire Apollo again."

Water Softeners FAQs, answered by experts

A good hardness level for drinking water can vary based on personal preferences, but an ideal level is 3.5 to 7 GPG. This means your water isn’t soft or hard. However, some people prefer the “fresh” taste from the minerals in hard water, while others like the smoother, “slippery” texture of soft water.

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. 

You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.

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.

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.
