Is your water softener not working properly? If your water feels hard, soap won’t lather, dishes look cloudy, or your system is making unusual noises, it may be time for professional water softener service.
At C and J Water, our technicians diagnose, repair, and re-bed many major water softener brand. You do not need to worry about brand compatibility — we service most residential systems on the market.
You may need water softener repair if you notice:
Prompt service prevents larger mechanical failures and protects plumbing, appliances, and fixtures from mineral damage.
If your water softener is 7–10 years old, it may not need replacement. Resin beads degrade over time due to chlorine and mineral exposure.
Rebedding includes removing worn resin, installing new high-capacity resin, adding fresh support gravel, and restoring original softening efficiency.
This service often restores performance at a lower cost than full system replacement.
Common signs include hard water stains, soap not lathering, stiff laundry, scale buildup, and salty or unusual-tasting water. Error codes or constant running cycles also indicate a problem.
This service can restore performance, save hundreds of dollars over replacing the softener, and most standard repairs fall within a typical range based on parts and labor. After diagnosing the issue, we provide a clear estimate before performing any work.
Most residential water softeners last 10–15 years with proper maintenance. Resin typically needs replacement around 7–10 years depending on water quality and chlorine exposure.
Salt bridging occurs when a hardened crust forms in the brine tank, preventing salt from dissolving properly. This stops the system from regenerating effectively and can cause hard water to return.
If the system structure and control valve are in good condition, repair or rebedding is often more cost-effective than full replacement. We evaluate the system and recommend the most practical solution.
Annual inspection and maintenance is recommended to ensure efficient operation and prevent unexpected breakdowns.
