Water Softeners & Filtration in Lacey: what is different here

Lacey homes range from 1970s houses in Tanglewilde to newer builds in Hawks Prairie, and older plumbing can change how your water tastes and looks at the tap. A free water quality test shows what is in your water before we recommend a softener or filter. We are about 40 minutes down I-5.

  3. Flat price first

    You get an upfront, flat-rate price with parts and labor included. Nothing starts until you approve it.
  4. Install and set up

    We plumb in the system with a bypass valve, set it for your water and show you how to run it.
