Higher ground is a holistic drainage company for residential and commercial properties. We specialize in renovations and maintenance for every thing affected by rainwater. In short if rainwater touches it we install repair and maintain it. The roof, gutter, flashing and drainage systems on your home are its armor against the elements. A weakness in this armor leaves your home open to damage causing leaks, foundation seepage and landscaping washout. Protect your home by having professionals maintain your gutters regularly. Our technicians are highly trained in spotting damage and wear before it becomes costly. At Higher Ground we do not sell a product, we sell solutions and results wrapped in polished customer service unparalleled in our industry. When it comes to your home maintenance and renovation budget know that everything drop counts.

"In the end, not well. We needed a leaking gutter seam fixed at our vacation house because it was dripping on our deck and ruining our stain. Higher Ground came out and made a repair in June 2022, which supposedly fixed the leak. We then arranged to have our deck restained. Since this is a vacation house, we weren't able to go back to the house until August 2022. At that point we discovered that the seam was still leaking onto our newly restained deck. We contacted Higher Ground via email and phone to try to get them to come out and finish the fix. They were not very responsive and got a little nasty about only allowing 10 days for "quality control issues" on their work, even after I explained that we are not down at the house full time to be able to see that it wasn't really fixed. So they refused to make good on their work. From my perspective, I paid for a leak repair and did not get a leak repair."

Pickett arrived in half an hour and put on shoe covers to not track dirt into the house. He went right to work and put in a new PEX pipe joint and fixture in an hour. Good as new!"

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."

"We had PerfectWater install a purification system in our home costing us just under $8K. This system never functioned properly. Called for service multiple times. Our last service request in December 2024 resulted in a new water test according to PerfectWater. They pulled the sample. We never heard from them again. Fast forward to October 2025, one year later, they called wanting to come service our equipment. At that point, they went over the water test results....a year later. They requried us to pay for the test at that time, which was usless to us due to the passage of time. Result of the test according to them, no change in the water and no need to do anything. Called a new company and the tested everything right in front of us. Went over everything and explained it all to us in detail. Please do not waste your time and money with Perfect Water. Find a company that will test the water on site and explain everything to you."

FAQs for water softener service projects in Strawberry Plains, TN

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.

Water softeners are worth the money if you live in an area with hard water. Hard water is safe to drink, but it poses serious threats to your plumbing system. The minerals in hard water will gradually build up on the inside walls of your pipes, reducing water flow to your fixtures. The minerals can also gradually corrode your plumbing system, reduce its lifespan, and increase the risk of leaks. Hard water also makes soap and detergent less effective. Water softener systems can solve all these issues, making them a great investment.

It’s possible to install a water softener yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Water softeners require working with copper pipes and electrical wiring, neither are suitable tasks for most DIYers. Plus, working with water and electricity together is dangerous and could pose a risk to your safety. Water softeners also need to be calibrated so that they don’t make your water too soft, as soft water poses just as many risks as hard water. Overall, it’s well worth hiring a local water softener installer to place your water softener system.

The cost to install a water softener system is $1,500 on average, ranging between $200 and $6,000. The labor for water softener work typically costs between $150 and $1,000, so you can add that to your equipment costs to get an accurate total. Your price will depend on many factors, including the following:

  • System capacity 

  • Home size

  • Water hardness levels

  • Type of water softener

  • Presence of electricity in the installation area

  • Local permit costs

Your water softener size is based on your total household water consumption. In most cases, you can assume the average household member will use around 75 gallons per day. Multiply that by the number of people in your home, then multiply by 10 (for the typical grains per gallon). You’ll get a number in grains that should help roughly size your water softener. However, it’s best to hire a professional to install your system and use more exact numbers, like your exact average water consumption per day and starting water hardness.
