We service Culligan™, Autotrol™, Hanson, Fleck™, Sears™, Hellenbrand Watermate® & Promate® and Clack™.
If you’re noticing any of these, our technician can run on-site diagnostics to confirm the cause and repair it the same day when parts are available.
Do you service all major water softener brands?
Yes. We service most residential water softeners and carry common parts on our trucks so we can complete many repairs in one visit. Brands we work on include Culligan™, Autotrol™, Hanson, Fleck™, Sears™, Hellenbrand Watermate® & Promate® and Clack™.
If your unit is an older or discontinued model, we can often source compatible components or advise on the most cost-effective repair vs. replacement path.
How quickly can I get service scheduled at my home?
Often same-day or next-day, depending on schedule and parts availability. Calling early in the day gives us the best chance to fit you in quickly. We’ll provide an arrival window and text/phone updates as needed. If parts need to be ordered, we’ll set clear expectations and return as soon as they arrive.
Do you provide upfront written estimates and free water testing?
Yes. We provide clear estimates before any work begins, so you’ll know pricing and options up front. Every service includes a basic water test (e.g., hardness, and when relevant other simple field measurements) to confirm the problem and ensure your system is tuned to your home’s water conditions after repair.
Can you program or recalibrate my softener settings and controls?
Yes, we can verify and adjust hardness settings, regeneration timing/frequency, and salt dosage/brine draw to match your water use and quality. We’ll recalibrate the control head, check bypass orientation and run a manual regeneration if needed. Before we leave, we’ll review settings and simple care tips so performance stays consistent.
What if my existing unit is too old or costly to fix?
We’ll walk you through the repair vs. replace decision with real numbers: current issue, likely future parts needs, and total cost of ownership. If replacement makes more sense, we’ll recommend like-for-like or upgraded options, discuss warranties and handle removal/installation scheduling. If you prefer to keep your existing unit running, we’ll focus on the most cost-effective repair to buy you time.
