We are a new business in your area with a master plumber with 25 years experience that cares for each customer and has but three goals. Our first goal is to provide a service to customers with the best quality and have the job done right the first time. Our second goal to teach our youth thru setting an example that u can have a future if your willing to work for it. Through my experience and skills I'm sure I can teach anybody how to do this job correctly with pride. Our third goal is to give back to our community with fund raisers to help a senior or family in need by providing a plumbing job or water heater ect to someone who otherwise could not pay for it. American company with American values.

"OUTSTANDING!! Don't call anyone else, but APPS. Bobby, David, Sebastian and Johnny - great team and did an amazing job. Had also called another service to compare estimate of the job - not even close to the quality of the repair that APPS did. Had to dig 20 feet down in my front yard, shore up the walls to repair the broken pipe. Their pricing is fair - and who wouldn't pay a little more for a great resolution vs. a lesser quality repair. These guys are professional, their word is good and about as honest a sub as there could ever be. I knew exactly what they were doing, when they would arrive, when they would be done, etc. Even had to leave two of the days with them still working and left my house open for them. They closed everything down each day, locked my house and I never had a concern about anything. THANKS GUYS, you're the best!"

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.
