Our office is small but very efficient, you'll actually get to speak to a real person and not a machine. Our office is open 9am-5pm week days and 9am-2pm Saturdays but when the office is closed, calls are forwarded directly to the Owner's mobile phone! You will always be taken care of immediately, 24 hours/7 days a week. In addition to plumbing, we offer customized water treatment options, such as water softeners, iron breakers, purified water systems, bacteria removal systems and well services. We also do bathroom renovations. No job is too big or too small.

"Just like some the other comments….Extremely unprofessional customer service person who answers the phone, interrupted several times and hung up on me. If you have a problem with their work won’t help you. Even when I inquired about warranty of their work I got a rude attitude.DO NOT RECOMMEND"

"From the moment Brian responded to my Angie’s list request, he presented himself to be extremely friendly and professional. He was very familiar with the type of water in my area and immediately gave me a very reasonable quote. He conveyed trust, integrity, and knowledge in our first conversation. Yes, I liked him right away! We set up an install date and time, he called the day before, and he and his son were right on schedule. There was a bit of a problem in the set up of my house, but Brian worked around it and figured out a way to make it work. I have been wanting clean water throughout my house for a long time, not thinking I could afford it. I had filters everywhere. Working with Brian was a great experience. I couldn’t be any happier and satisfied with the quality of the water running through my house now…it’s like night and day, the freshest, cleanest water coming out of every faucet!!! I had many questions and Brian was a phone call or text away, he responded immediately and was so very patient explaining all my concerns. He is very knowledgeable about water treatment and I would recommend Spring Rain and Brian’s quality, caring service to anyone looking to upgrade their home with clean fresh water!!! Thank you so much, Brian, for improving my quality of life!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Installing a water softener could help reduce calcium buildup in your pool if your pool has high calcium hardness as a result of hard drinking water in your home. Pool softeners work by exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, so if you use softened water to top off your pool, it may help keep calcium hardness from rising over time. However, it won’t lower the calcium hardness of the water already in your pool and isn’t a practical way to control pool calcium levels. The average water softener installation cost is between $200 and $6,000.

You can install a water softener system by turning off the water supply, draining the water, and then connecting your device to the waterline. Next, you’ll fill your tank with the recommended amount of salt or brine (whichever your unit calls for; be sure to read the instructions). Turn the water supply on and check for leaks. You can opt to let your water run for a few minutes, then test it using strips. 

The process of inspecting your water softener system is similar.

Yes. Hard water is what causes scale buildup, and a whole-house filter provides numerous benefits beyond water softening. Any water that enters your home will go through the filter, which cleans up all water that you will use for cooking, bathing, and drinking. A whole-house water filter also blocks harmful particles like heavy metals.

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.

Most of the U.S. has hard water, especially across portions of the West and Midwest. The areas with the hardest water include parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming, Illinois, North and South Dakota, Ohio, and New York. You’ll find soft water in parts of New England, the Southeast, the Pacific Northwest, and Hawaii.
