    Great workmanship and customer service.

    From quote to completion, it has been a pleasure dealing with Vickery's. Both the quality of workmanship and customer service have been excellent. They have been quick to respond, very clear about pricing, and gave us very good advice on improving our water flow situation and on suitable adjustments to parts. Matt arrived at the appointed time, carried out the work as quickly and efficiently as possible, explained what he was doing, and, at the end, cleared and tidied the work area. We are very happy with the service they have given us and have no reservation to recommend them to anyone.

    End to end perfection.

    Great from start to finish. The person coming round to quote for installing the water softener was really clear about the options, the work it entailed and how the whole process would work and cost. Plus i was offered 0% finance. The plumber did a fantastic job, really neat copper piping and I even now have better access to my stopcock. All in all, very professional. Would thoroughly recommend Vickery. It will take a week to get used to how my water tastes now. However, well worth it for the absence of limescale in appliances and across showers, taps etc. Long term will pay for itself.

    Good quality service

    Water Softener issue was identified quickly, and a new replacement model was installed the same day. Friendly staff, who provided clear information regarding the issue. Installation was left clean and tidy

    Why choose Vickery Water Softeners?

    I selected Vickery as it was a local company with an excellent background in providing Water Softeners, they had excellent reviews so I had high expectations and they certainly delivered a top class experience from the initial survey where they clearly explained the options and answered my many questions, to the professional installation where they provided a 5 star installation. In summary they provided me with real confidence of their understanding of the technology and the benefits of soft water both on your appliances and your skin and backed it up with a great installation.

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…
  • Improve Health - softened water reduces impact of skin issues such as eczema and psoriasis.

Vickery Water Softeners provides quality soft water that gets rid of limescale, so that your family’s health improves and your appliances last longer.
