Real Water Conditioning Work in Mequon Homes


John and Ellen Y. needed their iron filter and water softener replaced, along with several related plumbing repairs. We installed a new Capital iron filtration system and a new 64k water softener, ran new drain lines to serve both units, and replaced the leaking valves. We also cut out a cracked cast iron drain stack in the basement and replaced it with new PVC, reconnecting the existing drains in the process. Everything was tested for leaks and proper function before we left.
Georgene and Thomas L. called to have their aging two-tank iron removal system and water softener replaced. We installed a new single-tank iron eliminator and a 48,000 grain water softener, and ran new 1-inch piping through the system on both ends.
Fred S. called because his iron filter and water softener were old and showing signs of leaking. We removed the existing units and installed a new 13-inch single-tank iron filter and a 48,000 grain water softener, and ran two new discharge drains to the floor drain. Everything was tested and working great before we left.

Real Reviews From Mequon Homeowners

Darren K was the plumber who came out to check on the leaking ceiling in our powder room. He was thorough in checking the area where the water was coming through, checking through the open ceiling panel as well as going outside to look at the location of the roof sewer vent pipe, which ended being the cause of our water leakage. He explained everything quite well, and he made further inspections to make sure nothing else was problematic. He was thorough with his evaluation and took time to answer our many questions. We had concerns about our newly installed water softener and rust remover as well as a bathtub that was draining slowly. Darren was very pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. As Austin Club members, there was no charge for the visit. We were very happy with our service call.

We loved having Luc come and install a new water softener and water heater. Our units were about 15 years old. It’s great being able to count on Austin and we had fun and he did a great job.

Kyle arrived promptly when I called about a small leak on my water softener. Kyle walked through the options and was able to install a new softener the same day. I appreciated Kyle talking me through everything, he was very knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Common Questions Mequon Homeowners Have About Water Conditioning

Who installs water softeners and iron filters in Mequon?
Ozaukee County water is some of the hardest and most iron-heavy around, and Austin’s treated it in Mequon since 1939 — trucks in town daily. Rather than selling a box off the shelf, they test your actual water and size treatment to it. Real tradesperson, upfront pricing, non-commissioned advice, warrantied work.
How do I know if I need water treatment in Mequon?
Around here the signs are easy to spot: orange or rust staining in sinks, tubs, and toilets, a rotten-egg sulfur smell, scale on every fixture, dingy laundry, spotty dishes, and dry skin after showers. Mequon’s well water makes these especially common. A water test tells you exactly what you’re dealing with before you spend a dime.
Does Austin test the water first?
Always — the recommendation comes off an actual water sample, not a sales script. That matters in Mequon, where iron and hardness vary well to well; the test gets you the right iron filter or softener, correctly sized, instead of overbuying or under-treating.
What does a softener or iron filter cost in Mequon?
Priced upfront and approved by you before install. With non-commissioned techs and no salespeople, you only get recommended what the water test actually calls for — no upsell to a bigger system than your water warrants, even in a bigger home.
Is hard water or iron really a problem in Mequon?
Yes — Mequon and Ozaukee County are genuinely known for it, especially on wells. High iron leaves the orange staining and that sulfur smell; hardness leaves the scale that shortens the life of water heaters, dishwashers, and fixtures — and in a larger home, that’s a lot of equipment to protect. Austin sees the worst of it constantly here, so the system they set up is truly dialed to your water.
