"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?"

"They called ahead of the appointed time to see if they could come early, which they did. I was only expecting an estimate for work to be done. After discussing the project and providing an estimate for a revised, and reduced, scope of work, I hired them to do the work right then. They were efficient, and did everything we discussed. I thought the price was very reasonable."

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

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. 

While it depends on how complicated the unit and installation is, it takes two to four hours to install a water softener unit, on average. It might take longer if pipes need to be replaced. You should make sure the installation area is clear of any objects that might get in the way before you begin.

It’s unlikely that hard water on its own could cause substantial hair loss or damage, though it’s true that bathing in hard water can cause your scalp to feel itchy or flaky and might dull your hair’s natural shine. Using high-quality shampoo and conditioner or buying a whole-home water softener can decrease these issues.

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.

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.
