"Great - Troy and Hunter were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves which was a big deal. This was not an easy install. The Water Softener that was installed was top quality. We have to work through a service contract for the upkeep and maintenance which was surprisingly very expensive. Like I said though - this was not your average Water Softener System and the original plumber had no clue about Water Softeners when the house was built. Wisler is unique in our area as they cover both HVAC and Plumbing. Previously we were working with 3 different companies to handle our HVAC and Plumbing needs. Reducing it to one does have value. Softener + New Filter to Front End Sediment + Services to Install was $7700. Maintenance contract I am told is $500 which was a bit of a shock but we are working through that."

"The owner, is technically competent. I have technical background and I bombarded Brendan with lot of questions on scientific and mathematical and technical functions of heat pump, but Brendan immediately came up with satisfactory technical and scientific responses which cleared doubts and gave me optimism. Brendan and his team made feasibility study at the house and took measurements to ascertain the size of the heat pump and necessary modifications to the existing system in order to make new heat pump and system work efficiently with low costs of electricity and maintenance and with very low noise!!! The installation done by Brendan and his team appeared to be supported with stability. Trial run of new system initially made the team of Freedom Heating & Air to do fine tuning and now the system is working comfortably with very low noise, etc ."

"My installer was meticulous and paid attention to every little detail. He did excellent workmanship and had pride in his accomplishment. I love the results and was glad I had the shower enlarged and the ceramic is beautiful. It is a pleasure to take a shower."

"I was extremely impressed with the very fine service I recieved from J.E.S. Foundation Repair, Salem, Va. They installed a French drain behind my house and across a portion of my yard in Oct. 2021. They were very professional and courteous from the rep they sent to assess the situation to the very efficient appointment updates as to when they would start the job.

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

In Salem, plumbing demands seasonal attention to prevent freezing. You should disconnect outdoor hoses and insulate exposed pipes in crawl spaces before winter. Because local water carries moderate mineral content, flush your water heater regularly to remove sediment buildup. Inspect crawl spaces for moisture that accelerates pipe corrosion, and test basement sump pumps before spring rains arrive to manage groundwater intrusion effectively.

Helpful?

Salem residents rely on several types of certified specialists for plumbing. Residential service professionals handle daily fixture replacements and maintenance. Drain and sewer specialists focus on clearing root intrusions and performing camera inspections. You will also find professionals dedicated entirely to water heater installations. For properties on the outskirts of the city, specialized well and septic contractors manage non-municipal water and waste systems.

Helpful?

A frequent mistake during plumbing work in VA is skipping required municipal permits for water heater replacements or sewer line repairs. Homeowners also fail to locate the main shutoff valve before starting work, risking severe water damage. Additionally, ignoring high moisture levels in crawl spaces causes new repairs to fail quickly. Always verify your pipe materials, as older homes often contain incompatible galvanized steel.

Helpful?

Prepare for plumbing emergencies in Salem by keeping a water meter shutoff tool and basic freeze response supplies readily available. Maintain good inspection lighting to navigate dark crawl spaces safely. You should also keep manual drain-clearing tools on hand to clear minor clogs without using harsh chemicals. Finally, install basic moisture detectors in your crawl space to catch leaks before they cause structural damage.

Helpful?

Multiple visits for plumbing are often necessary due to local permit inspection schedules. Finding older cast-iron or galvanized pipes inside walls expands the project scope and requires extra sessions. Difficult crawl space access or extensive root intrusions also extend timelines. Additionally, coordinating water shutoffs with the regional water authority or ordering specific parts for older VA homes prevents same-day project completion.
