I removed the lid to show it is frozen solid

Absolute worst customer service ever. I have been a customer for a few years. Two months in a row, I received 5 gallon containers that were frozen solid. Last month one container busted open in my garage, causing water to go everywhere. This month, I received 4 containers that were frozen solid. It took 24 hours for 1 of them to defrost. Keep in mind, I had to bring it inside and had water all over my floors. When I called and asked for a manager, they said someone would call me back the next morning. I called back at noon and the manager was "at lunch". The manager finally contacted me after 4 pm and began harassing me over the phone. I wanted to let him know that I never would have accepted a delivery of frozen solid containers. Scott was extremely rude, said I was rude to his delivery people (I never saw the delivery people). Scott knows they were wrong, but didn't admit it. He does not know how to run a business. Why would anyone want frozen 5-gallon jugs of water????

My water system installed by Douglas Water.

See all

I love my water because of Beauchamp. We have had 0 issues with their products over the last four…read moreyears of filtering our well water through our entire home. Definitely would recommend them to all my family, friends, and neighbors!

We are so sorry we chose Beauchamps…read more Do not be mislead by their advertising and sales tactics. Please trust me when I say to stay with the smaller shops who do a good job at a reasonable price, like McIntyre's Soft Water Service or Wolverine Water Treatment. They've both been around for 40 years with the original owners still working there. They will take their time, not be in a hurry, and explain everything to you. Beauchamps installation people are untrustworthy, sloppy, do a poor job, and leave the house a mess. The sale person said they have 'master plumbers'. The installation person laughed when I mentioned that to him. He said he wish he was a master plumber. Beauchamps has to hire pretty much anywho they can get to get the job done as quickly as they can and hope customer standards are low. They will always be rushed, in a hurry, and learning as they go. They have NO pride in their work. For that, your installation will be sloppy and compromised ! Sales talk a good a talk but you don't see the full picture until installation shows up. Then it's too late. Goto any location and see if you like what you see. The people you will have to deal with when something goes wrong. Think about it and don't be in a hurry to buy. It's a big investment. Don't go for the modern store look as it's all show. Go for those that are honest and will be there for you when something goes wrong. I wish more people would see our message.

My problem came after installation. The technician left my old water softener in my basement saying he would come back to get it. He did not. About 2-3 weeks After noticing many water leaks in my plumbing after the installation I called the company to have them remove the old softener while I was cleaning my wet basement. The same technician came back with another technician. They did take out the tank. Removing the salt from it. Left all the metal parts in my basement and to top it off left the top of the old water softener that said Country Water behind my tire where had I not seen could have popped my tire with metal screws pointing up towards my tire. They did not fill my water softener with the salt that was sitting next to it. And I don't know what they did with the salt they took out of the old one. They did not say goodbye are you satisfied? Just left. I then had the original rep come out and compensate me with a 5 gallon water jug. Whole experience made me feel like they don't value long time customers or New customers. Sorry. A 5 gallon water jug doesn't compensate for that treatment after charging a 480 dollar installation fee. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

After talking to Water Boy and the "other big boy water company in the field", I noticed the huge…read moredifference in attitude when talking to the two companies was like night and day. The other company really made me feel like I was a bother to them and they really were not interested and almost trying to blow me off and I should just take their word for everything they say, write a check and be done with it. Why? Because as they told me, they are the "biggest company in the field". Snobby might be a better word. I simply did not like that experience at all. So we decided to have a whole house water softener and Reverse osmosis system installed by Water Boy. In addition we had them install an ozone cold water wash system on our washer. Every part of the experience was fantastic! They totally take the time with you to be certain you get the correct system for your home (and I asked a lot of questions). The entire experience from the very first contact was as friendly and professional as you can get and the installation, sales, and office people were great. This is a family owned business and it is very clear that customer service and going out of their way to make certain customers are satisfied is of their primary concern. And it is very easy to see that they totally enjoy what they do. A whole home system can be a considerable investment and with that in mind, I would not hesitate for a second to recommend Water Boy Systems to anyone.

Water Boy Systems did an amazing job with our water softener. We have now had it for a year and a…read morehalf and we absolutely love it. Grant came out (during a snow storm!) for the initial estimate. He tested our water and explained everything clearly. I previously had our water tested by an independent lab and, even though Grant did not know about these lab results, everything he said lined up with the lab results I had. I appreciate the honesty in something that seems like it can sometimes be a shady business. Mike came out for the install. I liked that he came with the right tools for the job and clearly knew what he was doing. He made sure everything was done exactly right and explained the water softener in detail. We have been using them for salt deliveries, which have been on time and reliable. Water Boy feels like a very wholesome and positive family company, which I very much prefer over some faceless corporation with cheesy sales people.
