"The water doctor did a great job removing my old water softener and installing a new walter filtering system. Top notch work. Will hire again. Great value."
"Doug showed up on time and got quickly to work. He inspected the water softener, found the leak, fixed it and cleaned up afterwards. Then he got to work on the kitchen sink leak which was resolved by tightening the faucet housing. Doug answered all my questions and even showed me how to DIY if these problems arise in the future, which saves me both time and money. I've used George Plumbing services for the past 10+ years and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. I trust them completely."
"Jims Plumbing Now was referred by my foundation repair company. Technician came out and performed a test in drain and water. Both passed and foundation company gave me a lifetime warranty on foundation work. Will use them in future if I need a plumber."
"The Ashcroft Brothers worked tirelessly on a SAT from 6-11pm to instal a new tankless hot water heater so me & my family could have hot showers after days of cold showers! They were professional and expeditious. Champion was a little pricey however it is WORTH EVERY PENNY! Thank you to the brothers who worked so hard on a Saturday until almost midnight! We appreciate it !"
"The repairmen was very professional and experience in his craft, I was shocked at how fast they responded to my request. It is a known fact that electricians,plumbers, carpenters and etc. are very expensive, but three or four hundred dollars to replace just a water faucet is entirely to much. As stated previously, I hired them to replace my air conditioner and they did a masterful job."
"I called to have Axis Plumbing repair a main water line and fix a toilet that was running. Taylor arrived within 90 minutes!! He was very courteous upon arrival, and took care of everything on the spot! We talked about our water softener and he gave me a quote to service it as well, which we had him do. He cleaned up after he was done, and it was like he was never even there! I would highly recommend him to take care of any of your plumbing or water softener issues! I will definitely be calling him for all of our future plumbing needs!"

If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.
Installing a water softener could help reduce calcium buildup in your pool if your pool has high calcium hardness as a result of hard drinking water in your home. Pool softeners work by exchanging calcium and magnesium for sodium, so if you use softened water to top off your pool, it may help keep calcium hardness from rising over time. However, it won’t lower the calcium hardness of the water already in your pool and isn’t a practical way to control pool calcium levels. The average water softener installation cost is between $200 and $6,000.
You can decide whether you need a water softener or water filter based on how your bathing or laundry experience is. If you notice issues like limescale buildup, dry skin, or stains on dishes—all telltale signs of hard water—you'd likely benefit from a water softener. However, if your main concern is over chemicals or bacteria in your tap water filter, and not just comfort, a filter is a better option.
Routine maintenance involves recharging the resin bed with salt or potassium, cleaning components, and periodic inspection.
The average cost to install a water softener, including the system and labor, is approximately $1,500. However, the total price can range widely from $600 to $6,000. For some complete systems, the cost may be between $800 and $2,500. Labor for the installation typically costs between $150 and $1,000.
The final price is influenced by several factors, including:
System type, capacity, and complexity
Home size and household water demands
Water hardness levels
Accessibility of the installation site and the extent of plumbing work required
Whether new electrical work is needed
The professional hired and any local permit costs
