Sump pump died during a storm. Called at 11pm, got a person, had a new pump and a battery backup in the next morning. Basement stayed dry through the rest of the week.

Water Softener Installation in Forest City, Iowa
We test hardness at your Forest City tap before recommending anything, because a softener sized off a guess either regenerates constantly or never keeps up. Then it gets installed with a proper bypass valve, an air gap on the drain, and the hardness dialled in to your actual reading.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Tree roots and the front yard
Mature trees are one of the nicer things about older Forest City streets and one of the harder things on sewer lines. Roots do not break into a sound pipe - they find a joint that has already opened slightly and then widen it. Cutting them buys a season; lining the pipe ends it.

Main water line between the meter and the house had a leak. They located it, replaced the run, and got the yard back to reasonable. No complaints at all.

Water Softener Installation in Forest City: common questions
How hard is the water in Forest City?
Much of Iowa sits in the moderately-to-very hard range, and it varies by source even within a county. We test at your Forest City tap so the softener is sized on your number rather than a regional average.
Will a softener help my water heater last longer?
Yes, measurably. Scale is what builds on the bottom of a tank and makes it rumble and lose capacity. Softened water slows that down considerably, which is why we often fit a softener and a heater together.
How much salt will it use?
A correctly sized unit for a Forest City family typically goes through a bag or two a month. If yours is eating far more than that, it is usually sized wrong or set wrong - both fixable.
Do I need a softener if I am on a well?
Often yes, and sometimes you need iron filtration alongside it. Well water in Winnebago County can carry iron and sulphur that a plain softener will not handle well, so the test comes first.
Do you have a plumber available in Forest City right now?
Almost always. Our Forest City line is answered around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays. Call (833) 435-9778 and we will tell you honestly how soon a truck can be at your address rather than giving you a vague window.
