3 employees. Uses subs for excavating. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. No service fees. Do not contact through email.
"He was sent because we have a service policy with American Water & was told for $50 he would unclog the blocked bathtub drain. He was very abrupt with us. He BROKE the pipe with his snake. He never unclogged the pipe. He then wanted over $1,200 to fix what he broke. He said he could do a PARTIAL fix for over $700 and he said I would have to wait until Tuesday for him to start at the earliest. He said he would probably open up the wall. He left the house with a dripping pipe. We hired another plumber, he fixed the damage done by DiTommasso, costing $800, that day. DiTommasso was NEVER supposed to ask us for anything as this should have been handled by American Water. So I paid DiTommasso or American Water $50 to have DiTommasso to just break the pipe and never clearing the clog. This was a nightmare. He said he was a plumber for 20 years too."

"Couldn’t have asked for better service. Plumber was very professional, did his best to minimize damage even though part of the garage ceiling and a wall behind our 1st floor powder room needed to be breached to access the pipes and figure out where the leak was. And on top of that, he took a look at a toilet that kept running after being flushed and made a quick fix of that problem without even charging me extra for the work. We’ll definitely use this service again the next time we need a plumber."

Water treatment & purification system installations and replacements FAQs
Water softeners consist of three main components: a mineral tank, a brine tank, and a control valve. In some smaller units, the mineral tank and brine tank are combined into one cabinet.
Professionals install whole-home systems at the point of entry of the main water line. Smaller units are installed under sinks or near a washer—these units only soften the water for that fixture, not the entire home.
Mineral Tank: Hard water passes into the mineral tank through resin beads, and an ion exchange occurs. Magnesium and calcium ions are exchanged for sodium or potassium ions from the brine tank.
Brine Tank: The brine tank contains sodium or potassium to recharge the resin.
Control Valve: The control valve determines when to clean the resin beads.
Choosing between a salt-based or potassium-based water softener depends on your priorities. Salt-based systems effectively remove hard-water minerals, regenerate efficiently, and are cost-effective. However, they may not be ideal for individuals on low-sodium diets. Potassium-based systems neutralize minerals without removing them and regenerate more frequently. They are more expensive but offer a healthier and more environmentally friendly option. If sodium levels are a concern and cost isn't a major factor, a potassium system may be the better choice.
To calculate your water softener's capacity, determine your grains per gallon (GPG) number by:
Multiplying the number of people in your home by 90. The average number of gallons used per person for washing, drinking, and cooking ranges from 80 to 100 gallons per day.
Multiplying that result by the hardness of your water. The average grains per gallon in the United States is 10 but can range from 0 to 17. You can find your GPG number by purchasing an at-home water testing kit.
Installing a water softener takes between two to four hours on average. The exact duration depends on the complexity of the unit and whether additional plumbing or electrical work is required. If modifications to existing pipes are necessary, installation may take longer. Preparing the installation area by clearing any obstructions can help streamline the process.
Water softeners can last up to 25 years with proper maintenance and care. The lifespan depends on the type and quality of the unit you choose. Single-tank electric water softeners may last around 12 years, while higher-quality models tend to last longer. Regular maintenance, such as routine inspections and timely replacement of salts or potassium, helps extend the life of your system. Most water softeners require minimal repairs over their lifespan.
