From my initial contact with Matt and Lindsey at Vickery Water Softeners the experience has been first class.They were quick to respond and gave expert advice on reviewing the location of our new softener. I chose them because they are a family run business who clearly care about the customer experience and their communication and professionalism demonstrated this.The new pipework is extremely neat and the location of the water softener well thought out to maximise space under our sink. Matt ensured all areas were protected during the work and in short the attention to detail was excellent.Verified reviewerJob location: PO710 Outstanding service

Outstanding service! When I found the power is off, I called Lindsey who provided prompt support. Later Dan came and professionally replaced the transmitter. Power was restored immediately, and everything was back up and running in no time. Thank you so much for the prompt, professional, and efficient support. It’s refreshing to receive such excellent customer service. I would highly recommend this company and the team to anyone needing professional, reliable and responsive assistance.Verified reviewerJob location: PO1510 A First Rate, reliable and trusted, local family business.

Job location: SO31A well respected and trusted, independent local family business. Widespread recommendation right across social media, also from local businesses and other people we know. Customer care and after sales are exemplary, extending to years after installation. We had our 12 year old water softener replaced with a new model. Very good communication and advice, followed by efficient and tidy work during the actual installation. Highly recommended.- CCraig T

The Vickery family business
We are a small, independent, local family business that believes in the benefits of quality soft water. We want to help improve your family’s health and lifestyle too.
With 25 years experience in the water industry, we, Matt and Lindsey Vickery, pride ourselves on the quality of our work and products, our honest approach to customer service and offering every customer that ‘personal’ touch.
Based in Hampshire, UK
We are based in Fareham and cover the whole of South Hampshire, from the New Forest to Southampton to Portsmouth.
All homes across the south of England suffer from hard water. Over years, chalk and limescale build up in water pipes and appliances, so much so they can stop working. More than this, drinking hard water is shown to be bad for the body. We wanted the best for our children and so invested in a water softener. Now we provide water softener installation services to families and businesses across Hampshire so they too can enjoy the benefits.
Our skilled professional engineers provide you with quality, trustworthy advice based on our many years of water softener installations and water softener servicing across Hampshire.
Benefits of a Water Softener:
- Save Time - because soft water leaves fewer residues than hard water, you’ll need less time for cleaning
- Save Money - which means using fewer soap and cleaning products. Better for your budget, better for our planet.
- Improve Life - of your appliances. Not just washing machines can live longer – kettles, showers, hot water systems…
