"Worst experience I have ever had with remodelers. They installed my pergo flooring in my kitchen and it began to come up. It was well within the warranty period. We called and left messages with the owner Sean for 3 months before one of his workers, Gregory. Gregory told me that he was going to give me a deal. I would only have to pay for the flooring but he would pay for the service to redo the floor. I did not understand how this was a good deal since I had already paid to have a job done correctly the first time. Finally Sean, the owner agreed that since they did the job poorly and my floors looked so bad that he would pay. This was after my stepdad got so angry that he told Sean he was going to file a lawsuit. We all thought that was really nice, until they came and screwed up in the linoleum floor I had decided to put in. They were getting ready to leave, after the installation. It was only after we had to stop them and show them all of the bubbles that they left in the flooring.The used a roller to try to get the bubbles out and all it did was leave creases. Reason being, they had not taken the glue off the floor where they had previously glued the tiles. The pattern on the glue was coming though the smooshed up vinyl. That is how they left it. It looks horrible. They had it written down that they would take the glue off but then they did not. I thought new floors would be a selling point. How am I going to advertise new floors when they seriously look 10 years old? Again, called the owner Sean, multiple times. We asked him if he would come over and look, no response. The only time we ever heard from him, after 3 months was when my stepdad was so mad he was ready to file a lawsuit and he told Sean that. I'm sorry but you mess up not once but twice and the second time you don't even have the decency to come out and have a look?"

Serving Coastal SC from the Georgia border on both sides of I-95 to Manning, SC to McClellanville. We install water well systems and water treatment systems. We install shallow wells and deep wells up to 650' deep. Residential, Commercial, Mobile Home, Modular, Irrigation, Solar Water Well Systems, Geo-Thermal HVAC.

"I have had several technical problems with the R.O. system over the years (not due to his work, just wear and tear I think). Preston will not return to fix anything. I paid him for an electrical switch for which he never showed up to install. I have called him a dozen times: half the time he doesn't answer, the other times he would say he would be here on a certain day and never show up. As I write this review, I have been waiting on him for almost one week and as of this morning have no water in my R.O. tank or in my house. I have practiced medicine for over 40 years. if I treated my patients like he treats his clients, I would not have a single patient remaining in my practice."

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Water softener life spans range from 10 to 25 years, with most lasting around 15 years on average. After the 10-year mark, you may see your softener’s performance diminish as it progresses in age. Proper water softener maintenance can impact how long your water softener lasts. Likewise, a home with very hard water or a high demand will put more demand on your softener, which in turn shortens its life span.

The license requirements for water softener installation depend on your location. Some municipalities require that the installer hold a plumbing license, some require a permit and an inspection, but no license for the installer, and some require a permit and a license for the installer. Regardless of the local laws in your area, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed plumber or installer. These pros will install your system properly and have the experience to size the system appropriately. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your installer’s license status.

Soft water is better for your hair. The minerals in hard water can impact hair in a number of ways. It can cause the hair to dry out and become brittle, and it can require you to use more shampoo to get a good lather. The hard water may leave a film on the hair and scalp from mineral buildup, which may also cause some irritation.

Costs hinge on system type, household size, professional, and complexity, ranging between $800 and $2,500 for complete systems.

Water softener versus water filter: which one should you choose? If you want to remove minerals, opt for a softener. If you want to remove a wide range of contaminants, go for a filter. Or, you can install both.
