Gene's Plumbing handles water softener installation across Collinsville and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
Iron staining and a sulfur smell around Collinsville are not hardness and a softener alone will not fix either. The water test tells us which system you actually need.
Every house handles water softener installation a little differently depending on its age, and Collinsville has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Collinsville truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The water softener installation job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
What happens from the first call to the final test.
Tell us what you are seeing, hearing or smelling. If water is actively running into the house, you get walked to your main shutoff before anything else is discussed.
Finding the real cause is what keeps the repair small. Opening one square foot of wall instead of twenty starts with knowing exactly where to open it.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
The repair gets made with proper materials, pressure tested where the job allows, and checked in front of you before anything is closed back up.
The questions homeowners ask about this one.
It depends on what the diagnosis turns up, which is why you get a firm price for your water softener installation job in Collinsville before any work starts rather than an hourly rate that runs while you wait.
Anything actively leaking or backing up is treated as same-day in Collinsville. Scheduled water softener installation work is usually booked within two or three business days.
Drop cloths go down before anything starts, cuts are made as small and as clean as the water softener installation job allows, and everything removed leaves with the truck when the Collinsville work is done.
Yes. The water softener installation repair done at your Collinsville property is warranted, and the terms are written on the invoice rather than described vaguely at the door.
Feedback from customers who had this work done.
"Burst pipe in the crawlspace in January. He had the main off and the section cut out before I finished explaining. Pressure tested it in front of me before he closed it up."
"Called about a leak under the kitchen sink and it turned out to be the dishwasher hose. They told me that, tightened it, and did not charge me for a plumbing repair I did not need."
"Old cast iron stack was leaking behind the wall. They cut it out and put in new, and were careful about dust with plastic and a fan. That mattered with a baby in the house."
