With over 20 years of plumbing experience, we at Lowery Brothers Plumbing Company take pride in ourselves on quality over quantity every time. We are a family owned and operated business licensed and insured. We hope to be your plumber any time you are in need.

"Both my bathrooms clogged overnight, and the emergency plumber I called came out and quoted me nearly $800 to dig up my septic tank lid and clear the main drain line. I said no thanks. Contacted Lowery Brothers for a quote the next morning, and got a response in less than 10 minutes saying they'd be able to be there that evening. They contacted me later in the day confirming they would be there when they said, and they arrived right on schedule (and wearing masks, which was appreciated). They ended up pulling off one toilet and snaking the drain, clearing the clog, then reseating the toilet, which had a leak at the base. Their price was less than half of the other quote, and they were professional, friendly, and fast. I am going to be calling these guys for all plumbing services I'll need in the future, and will be recommending them as well."

"It didn't go. The service was provided by Amazon when I placed the order for my basketball hoop. Flat Rate Services Charlotte assigned Glenn to complete the setup on 3/26 from 8-11am. I worked from home to be here for the setup. At 10:26am I received an cancellation from Flat Rate Services Charlotte stating "Customer didn't show up". I have been working in my office which is next to our front and only guest accessible door since 6am. No one knocked or rang the bell. My dog would also have alerted me if I was in the restroom. No phone call to double check the address or anything just the cancel. I called Flat Rate Services Charlotte to find out why they didn't show up and cancelled my order. Glenn answered and said he was here and no one answered. When I explained my office is next to the front door he hung up on me. I called and filed a complaint with Amazon. I wasted a day at home and we still don't have the hoop put together due to horrible communication and customer service."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

Experts recommend that you put two to four bags of potassium chloride in your water softener every month. This amount depends on how much is in the bag (40 pounds is most common) and what your water softener manufacturer recommends. For more specific advice, talk to a water softener pro in your area and read the manual that came with your system.

Whether or not your water softener installation requires a permit depends on where you live; some municipalities only let certified plumbers and electricians pull the necessary permits and complete the work, others only require a professional to sign off on the work, and some don’t mandate permits at all. You can contact your local building department to find out, but you can also ask a local water softener installer or plumber to see if a permit is necessary. They will usually pull the permits for you and can help close them out after the work is complete.

It’s sometimes possible to install a water softener yourself, but it’s usually better to hire a water softener professional to get the job done. Water softeners involve plumbing and electrical work, which usually require permits and a certified expert to sign off on the work. Not only is it dangerous to work with these utility lines, but it’s also not legal in many areas. Plus, improper installation or system sizing might not fix your hard water issue and could lead to an increased risk of leaks, fires, and other property damage. 

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.

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.
