"It’s nice to have clean Pure water from the faucets . No more chlorine in my showers or hard water film. The reverse osmosis system is the best. Clear coffee and tea . All taste 100% pure. Regular glass of water actually taste good . No more salty taste or chlorine in water. It’s the simple things in life we can enjoy. My skin rashes are leaving without the Dr’s creams and ointments. A plus when you are suffering from psoriasis. We are saving money already on soap, laundry detergent, shampoo etc. now a little dab will give a full lather. This unit will pay for itself in the health benefits alone. From the sales staff, installers, and office staff I want to say they all are professional and concerned with client satisfaction and the quality of their products. We can’t take good water for granted."

"Had water leak that presented in basement shop. I traced to upstairs bathroom and thought leak was coming from tub/shower supply. David quickly determined that the problem was actually a leaky toilet fill valve and corrected the problem quickly and to my satisfaction."

"Awesome! We had an emergency that left us with no water. AHS had 1 vendor in the area that didn't even answer the phone. We were referred to Jesse's. Not only did he answer the phone, he was at our house within an hour and promptly fixed the issue, explained the problem, answered all of our questions and the cost was very reasonable. Needless to say, his info is saved in my contacts as a FAVORITE."

"Life Savers!! We live in an older house with a very small bathroom. We had a home inspection recently and were altered to some major subfloor, sill and joist damage. We knew it was in rough shape but the inspector used terms like “100% moisture and “previous repairs poorly completed”. I called a few other contractors and remodel companies that started to throw around some huge numbers and timelines to make the repairs. The consensus from them was the tub would have to be removed before they could do any subfloor repairs. In a house with one shower that wasn’t really an option for us. I saw the reviews for the Crawlspace Medic and decided to give them a call. It was the best decision I could have made. Sharon, Paul and Stanley were great; they made the process very easy and efficient from the initial phone call to the installation. Paul came out to do the initial visit (11/14) and assured me he had seen much worse and his company had developed methods to do all the necessary repairs from underneath the house leaving the current bathroom intact. The quote arrived the same day and was extremely reasonable. They got us on the schedule right away (11/20) and on the day of the repairs Nick and his crew arrived on time and were very professional. The job was scheduled for two days but they completed it in one and did a great job. We no longer have to worry about falling through the floor. They also provide a follow up inspection in 90 days and informed us of a couple other minor leaks that were noticed while completing the repairs. Crawlspace medic is a great company and I would 100% recommend them to anyone needing their services."

"We were disappointed to learn that the home we recently purchased had major mold issues in our crawlspace. We learned after several estimates that the crawlspace issue had not been properly addressed, after we noticed significant moldy, musty odors in our bathroom.
An inspection of the crawlspace revealed the need for immediate mold remediation and repair of our space. We contacted and received estimates from four crawlspace companies, and were far and away impressed the most with Crawl Space Doctor, which now has an office/operation in Charlotte (their address still shows as Savannah, GA).
The owner of the company, Greg McBride visited our home, explained their services, and gave us a very competitive estimate for the work. In addition the materials he offered were of higher quality with being priced at either the same or slightly lower price than all other estimates.
Greg also offers a world-class guarantee, and offers an annual recheck of the work at no cost; he also made a minor repair of the crawlspace dehumidifier at no cost to us.
Greg's crew arrived on time, along with Greg, who regularly returned to check in on the work and his crew's progress. His gentlemen worked extra hours, and did a world-class job throughout the job.  Greg periodically checked in with us, to explain the job status/progress, and answered all our questions.  He obviously knows his business, and also joined with his crew in the crawlspace periodically, to check on the work and their progress.
We researched our options carefully, received 4 estimates from leading companies. Greg and Crawl Space Doctor were far and away the most impressive.
We enthusiastically recommend Crawl Space Doctor should you need work in your crawlspace.

"He tried to see if the water heater could be repaired, but it was too damaged from rust. He replaced it with a new one with a six year warranty. He protected the floor with plastic from possible leaks before he removed it and was careful to clean everything up before he left. He also made sure it was working before he left. He was very nice."

Water Softeners FAQs, 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.

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.

The chemicals in a water softener can wear down the anode rod in the heater and shorten its life span. However, for most people, the benefits of the softener outweigh this potential drawback.

Have a plumber inspect the anode rod annually for damage, as replacing the anode rod is far less expensive than replacing the entire water heater.

Hard water stains can be a headache because they will reoccur as long as hard water flows through. Thankfully, hard water stains are not permanent. With the right tools and an appropriate cleaning routine, you can prevent hard water stains from ever building up. However, you might feel like you are stuck in a constant cleaning cycle. In that case, you may consider hiring a contractor to perform routine cleaning.

It’s not a good idea to oversize your water softener. Doing so will mean the tank doesn’t get full, which can lead to channeling. This leads to a large portion of the resin beads not being utilized and the beads at the bottom of the tank being overused. Over time, this will reduce the efficiency of your system, not to mention that the upfront cost of an oversized softener is unnecessarily high. If you have a timed regeneration cycle rather than a demand-based one, you’ll also spend far more on replacing salt than you need to.
