"Technician used a light on a cable in some places did not find a leak because cable would not bend in that tight a space. He cut a 8"x8" hole in the ceiling but never used the light to see if he could find a leak. Instead he show me piece he cut out of the ceiling and said it was dry there for there is not a leak. But my question is were are the water marks comeing from. Now I am still in the dark. And have to repair hole that was cut in ceiling."

"Top notch service, quick delivery and installation, and amazing results. I thought my water quality was good until I saw the test results. I had a professionally installed water system for the last ten years so I figured I was good to go, but I wasnâ t. Bobby responded quickly and showed genuine concern for my family and how my water quality could affect them. He recommended a system designed to correct the problem and had it up and running in less than a week. I was very happy with my experience then after having experienced what a proper system could do I was blown away! Water is something we take for granted and if itâ s clear we assume itâ s good, donâ t make the mistake I did. Call Bobby and have your system checked!"

"Issue: water backed up in laundry room floor and downstairs bathroom commode bubbling noise when two showers were running at the same time. Anthony performed a drain vision procedure determined the possible need to replace pipes due to age, the dirt settling, small roots, grease, soap, garbage disposal, etc. A second test by Jason via drain vision for further analysis. No obstruction however, determined narrowing could continue to be an issue over time. Both Anthony and Jason are very knowledgeable."

"We have very hard water in our area.  The calcification from deposits could be so thick, we needed to scrub out our fixtures at least a couple of times a year to unclog them.  I thought it may be time to look into a water softener before we had internal damage to a major appliance and come home one day to two feet of water in our house.
DJ Ostrom and his team came out to the house and tested the water.  They recommended a softener based on our water needs.  They returned at a later date convenient to my schedule and ran new piping, installed the softener, and made sure I knew how it worked, when to refill the salt, etc..  It is not a very complicated piece of machinery, but I like to know how things work.
No more scrubbing!  The water softener is working perfectly.  We have not had any further build-up and the calcification that was there seems to have dissolved away.  I would highly recommend that if you have hard or heavy mineral water, that you consider a softener for your home.  The crew at Ostrom, in my opinion, did a great job at a fair price.  Highly recommended.

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

The most effective way to fix hard water in your shower is by installing a whole-home water softening system. This system treats water as it enters your home, removing the minerals that cause hardness before they can reach your shower or any other fixtures. While this is the most comprehensive solution, other methods are often temporary fixes. For a more affordable and shower-specific option, you can install a water-softening showerhead or a shower filter. However, these filters are generally less effective and may not remove all the contaminants that lead to limescale and hard water stains. By implementing a water softening solution, you can expect a reduction in mineral deposits and enjoy the benefits of cleaner-feeling hair and skin.

Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.

Generally, it is safe to bathe in yellow water, as the color is often caused by iron, tannins, or rust, which won't harm your skin. Soap will still clean you effectively, though the water might leave stains. However, if the water has an unusual smell or you suspect contamination, avoid bathing and contact a plumber for an inspection. A professional can also help if you find bathing in yellow water problematic and want to determine how to get your water clear again.

Yes. To get soft water, you can install a water softening system, which will replace the calcium and magnesium ions in the water with sodium or potassium ions. Water softeners cost anywhere from $200 to $6,000, depending on the size and complexity of the system. You can either install a water softener for the whole house or just at your shower heads. If you’re sensitive to sodium or potassium, you can install a salt-free water conditioner.

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.
