1. Water Smith
Based in Antioch, IL, Water Smith works as a water softener technician. A team of 2, the business has been operating for 1 year. Many softener problems start in the brine tank. Salt can form a hard crust called a bridge or turn into mush at the bottom, both of which stop brine from being drawn into the resin tank. Breaking up the salt, cleaning the tank, and adjusting settings often restore normal softening. On their profile, Water Smith lists project type: repairs, regular inspections and maintenance and installations or replacements; water treatment type: water softener, reverse osmosis, water conditioner, point-of-entry filtration system for entire building and other water treatment; property type: house, condo/apartment, townhouse and business. Salt levels that never drop, standing water in the brine tank, or error messages on the control head point to a regeneration problem. Mention whether the home is on city water or a well, and include any recent water hardness or iron test results. Brand and parts availability, the condition of the brine tank, and extra testing for iron or well water issues can change the final price. Besides Antioch, homeowners in Lake Villa, Fox Lake and Spring Grove can reach out for water softener repair. Posted hours are Monday to Sunday, 8:00 am to 8:00 pm. To get started, send Water Smith a request on Fixerlane with the details of your project.
