"Wonderful job done on my sink and water softener replacement. My old heavy vast iron kitchen sink had to go ! Ugh ! Couldn't get the stains out after 30 years of use. Chad and Dean removed it and installed a beautiful black composite single basin sink. Replaced the bad pipes underneath and then installed a new water softener to replace one 20 years old and not functioning up to par. I absolutely love the look of my new sink and faucet and having a water softener that does what it's suppose to do. These two gentlemen, along with Johnathon who set this all up, were an absolute pleasure to work with and have in my home. Thank you so much guys !"

Boevaag plumbing is locally owned and operated We currently have two master plumbers and one apprentice plumber.
"I am a 76 year old woman who lives alone. I have three bathrooms in my home and called Boevaag Plumbing to repair one of the toilets. The service on August 22, 2024, was a replaced fill valve and flapper and the cost was $195.00. As long as the plumber was already onsite, I asked him to look at a second toilet that I thought might also needed a new fill valve and flapper. The plumber confirmed that was needed and asked if I wanted him to go ahead and do the repair. I asked him to do so. I naively did not ask what that additional repair would cost and assumed it wouldn't be another $195 as he was already on site. The plumber was very nice and left my home in clean condition. On completion of the second repair, I received a bill of $390! I was speechless and just wrote out a check. I wrestled for a couple of weeks with whether or not to call just to communicate my thoughts. I decided to write it off and never make the same mistake again. Shortly after the repair, the second toilet was giving me some problem. I called Boevaag and Jeff came out, at no charge. He found a piece of plastic in the new part that he thought was the culprit. A few weeks later the same issue presented. On December 5, 2024, I called Boevaag and told them the issue had not been resolved. Joe said he would get back to me. I called again on December 13, 2024 because I had not heard from Joe, left a message and Joe texted back, "Yes, you are on our list. With this cold weather we have been backed way up." With Christmas and the new year coming up, I chose to wait to hear back. Today is January 6, 2025. As I have not heard back, I called and talked to Joe. Joe assumed Jeff had followed up and resolved the issue. As that is not the case, I offered to accept a $150 refund and I would hire someone else to fix the problem. Joe said he would talk with Jeff to get the problem fixed and he hung up. I know plumbing repair is expensive and I may be wrong, but I feel, as an older single woman, I was taken advantage of. Joe has no customer service etiquette. He is rude and condescending. NO....I would definitely not recommend Boevaag Plumbing."

Water softener services FAQs
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.
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
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.
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.
