Mere sits right on the chalk and limestone belt that runs along the southern edge of Wiltshire. That geology means one thing for homeowners: hard water. We regularly test supplies in the BA12 postcode area and find readings between 255 and 265 parts per million — around 260 PPM on average. That puts Mere firmly in the 85% hardness bracket, well above what most appliances are designed to handle.
You’ll notice it first on the kettle. A thick white crust that builds up within weeks. Then it’s the shower screen, the taps, and eventually the inside of your boiler. Left unchecked, limescale shortens the life of heating elements and pipes. It’s a slow, expensive problem that most people don’t spot until something breaks.
Our Approach to Softened Water in Mere
We’ve been installing water softeners across Wiltshire for over 20 years, and Mere is a town we know well. Whether you live up near Castle Hill, along the B3092 towards Stourhead, or in one of the newer developments off Woodlands Road, our engineers can assess your property and recommend the right system.
We fit models from Kinetico, Harvey, Infinity, and TwinTec — choosing whichever unit suits your household size, water usage, and available space. A compact TwinTec S4 works brilliantly in a smaller cottage, while a Kinetico Premier handles the demands of a busy family home without missing a beat.
Installation typically takes half a day. Our team handles everything from pipework modifications to setting the correct salt levels, and we always leave you with a clear walkthrough of how your new softener works.
Ongoing Support for Mere Customers
A water softener isn’t a fit-and-forget purchase. Salt needs topping up, resin beds need occasional attention, and moving parts wear over time. We offer annual servicing plans that keep your system running at peak efficiency year after year.
Living close to the Somerset border doesn’t mean you’re out of our range. Mere falls comfortably within our regular service routes, so call-outs and deliveries are never a problem. We also supply block salt and tablet salt with free local delivery.
If you’re tired of scrubbing limescale off your taps and worrying about your boiler, give us a call on 01202 828 241. We’ll arrange a free home survey and show you exactly what a water softener can do for your home in Mere.

What Our Customers Say
“The service from start to finish was exceptional. Very skilled and knowledgeable plumbers, nothing was too much bother, brilliant receptionist, everything fitted well and explained along the way, went above and beyond - even reinstalled and adapted the cupboard around the new water softener and left us a box full of gifts and goodies! A pleasure to deal with such a great team, we highly recommend them.”
“Fantastic service from the Southern Softflow Team! My enquiry was dealt with promptly and expertly. We were first told by the guy from another local company who installed our water softener (before we owned the property) that the softener couldn’t be serviced reliably as it hadn’t been used for a while and was in any case 10 years old so in need of replacing. We were also told it would be unsafe to use and were quoted a heavy price by him to replace it. Keith from Southern Softflow came to have a look, He was knowledgeable, friendly and very understanding. He spent time analysing the water to make sure it was safe to use. He flushed the system through thoroughly and assured us the softener is in good working order so we wouldn’t need to replace it which was a great relief. Several weeks after Keith’s visit we are using our softener with no issues and are very relieved Southern Softflow operate in our area!”
“We recently had Southern Softwater visit our home to walk us through the available options, and the experience from start to finish was excellent.The initial consultation was clear, informative, and pressure-free. They took the time to understand our needs, explained the different systems in a straightforward way, and answered all of our questions patiently. It felt like they genuinely wanted to help us make the right decision rather than just make a sale.The installation process was just as impressive. The installer arrived on time, was extremely professional, and worked efficiently while keeping everything tidy. He explained how the system works, made sure everything was set up perfectly, and left the area clean once the job was complete.Overall, we’re delighted with both the service and the product. It’s rare to find a company that delivers such a smooth and professional experience from consultation through to installation. Highly recommended.”
“Fast response to our enquiry, full information provided, work booked for following week. Fitter arrived on time, pleasant, efficient, very tidy and cleaned up when work finished. Very neat pipework, showed us how to isolate soft water if required at any time, and showed us position of new stopcock. Explained how filter system worked, helped us to set up App for notifications when salt low. Stacked spare salt in garage, advised how to apply for more supplies. Presented us with a delightful gift hamper of locally sourced products. Would highly recommend Southern Softflow Ltd.”
“From the first contact through to survey visit and arranging for installation, this family-run company was excellent, with plenty of communication. The water softener had to be installed in a very restricted space with very difficult to access mains water inlet and drain. However the company plumber found a workaround, even preserving some of the middle shelf in the cupboard concerned. The installation was completed in one morning, working was clean, and the finished job is very neat.”
“Southern Softflow’s response to my call for help was amazing, from Edith in the office, Keith the boss man to Will the plumber who worked so hard and did a first class job. A truly great personal service not found easily these days. My heartfelt thanks to them all !”
