"It went well originally. I had a hose bib replacement done from one of your companies. Southern plumbing. They replaced my hose bib. Worked for a couple of months Then it started leaking out of the top. Leaking profusely. They came and “fixed” it. A couple of months afterwards when I tried to use it today Not working properly. Leaking out of the top. I feel like I was scammed and the work was done insufficiently. How do we remedy this because I’m no longer interested in them servicing this. It needs to be done correctly by an actual plumbing company that can do the work. I’ll never trust Angi for any home projects I have. Throughly aggravated."

"Awesome customer service. Excellent installation. Great "zero pressure" experience from Juston on the water test and recommended fixes for the issues. After the install, Bill explained the system, how it works, and what we had to do maintain it (next to nothing). We have no more "rotten egg" smell coming from our taps. No more scaly water deposits. I would recommend 10 times out of 10 without hesitation."

"Ripped off. I was hopeful of having a good experience, since a friend referred me to this company, but that didn't happen. My A/C fan was constantly running, but not cooling. They came out and said it needed a capacitor, and that it would be $405. I agreed, thinking it was an expensive part and he needed a good amount of time to do the job. It took 45 minutes tops (he also cleaned the screen on the sides and checked the filter "for free".). He didn't leave me with a receipt, so I asked for one, and he emailed it right away. It was NOT itemized, and so there was no way to know how much they charged/hr., or how much the part was. I looked up the part online, and guess what...about $10. So BUYER BEWARE. When I called the office for information about hourly costs and the part cost, she said what another reviewer reported upon his call: that there is a flat fee, etc. Oh, and there's a $15 charge for their gas, since prices are so high, and to keep their "fleet mobile and ready to serve." The only positive part is that my AC is working, and the technician was very nice, but I WILL NOT BE USING THIS COMPANY AGAIN."

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.
