We called for a water softener install. However, we were informed that we didn’t need one in St Paul. Thank you for your honesty. Could have just installed it and charged us for it but he was informative and saved us money.

Dave was punctual and worked quickly. I really appreciate his upfront pricing, no separate estimate trip to replace a water softener. He also gave me a little tutorial afterward to show me how to use the control! Thanks Dave!

I contacted Dave for help with my water softener. He was open and honest about the issue I was experiencing. We worked together over the phone, and I was able to get my water softener up and running again. He didn't charge me for his time and hoped that the steps we took over the phone resolved the problem. Most companies wouldn’t take the time to troubleshoot over the phone because they prioritize making money. I will definitely reach out to Dave for my future service needs.
