Hard water, handled.
You get softer laundry, spotless dishes, better-tasting water, and appliances that last like they should. We test, install, and service water treatment for homes across Buda, Kyle, San Marcos, New Braunfels, Bastrop, and the surrounding communities, and every job starts with a free test at your tap.
Your water is safe. It's also working against you.
Most water we serve starts as groundwater or surface water in limestone country, and it picks up a lot of calcium and magnesium either way. Around Bastrop the aquifers change, but city water there still runs hard. That's all “hard water” means. Your water is safe to drink. It's just carrying minerals.
But those minerals scale up your water heater, spot your dishes, fade your laundry, and fight your soap every day. The fix is straightforward, and it starts with knowing exactly what's in your water.

How it works
Three easy steps
The whole point of the free test is that nobody should buy water treatment blind, including from us.

Pick a time that works. We come to you, test your water right at the tap, and show you the numbers on the spot: hardness, chlorine, iron, and more.

We explain what your results mean for your home and what we'd recommend, with a typical installed range. You keep the results either way.
Licensed install, done right
