Hard water is a common issue in Weatherford, TX and surrounding areas, and it can cause major damage to your plumbing system over time. The high mineral content in hard water leads to buildup inside your pipes, reducing water flow and increasing strain on your plumbing. Over time, this buildup can cause blockages, corrosion, and reduced efficiency in appliances like water heaters and dishwashers.

To protect your plumbing, consider installing a water softener system, which removes excess minerals before they enter your home’s plumbing. Regular descaling treatments for fixtures and appliances can also help reduce buildup. Additionally, scheduling professional inspections ensures that small issues don’t turn into costly repairs. If you’re dealing with persistent plumbing problems related to hard water, S.W.A.T. Plumbing is here to help with expert solutions tailored to your needs.

Ken the GM is great! Him and his young assistant came out to my home to repair my water heater and kitchen faucet. Ken noticed that the faucet was old and he refused to try to put new parts on an old system so he called it in and received authorization to replace the entire set. Also, it took his assistance less than 5 minuets to replace the busted hose on my water heater. Their service and attention was excellent! Hi highly recommend that you try them the next time you have a plumbing issue!

I had a bad clog in my kitchen sink. My home warranty company contracted them to come out. They were able to get to me a day earlier than anticipated and got the clog cleared up fast. I would definitely use them again, very professional and quick.

SWAT Plumbing was great from the start. With our hurry-up and wait culture, it’s easy to think your issue is the only issue. Understanding today’s climate, the timeliness was acceptable due to the holiday. The office support was kind and understanding. Our technician I believe was Hershel and he was professional, patient, respectful, and a problem solver. Our faucet had a leak, and needed to be replaced and after replacing, our water pressure was not there anymore. He diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Thanks for your great service, I would definitely use your services again if need be.
