Are You Facing These Water Quality Issues in Ohio?

Common water problems you might be dealing with at home.

If you’ve noticed chalky buildup on faucets, spotty dishes, or dry skin after a shower, your water might be to blame. Many Ohio homeowners deal with frustrating water problems every day, often without realizing the cause. From hard water damage to unpleasant odors and stains, these issues don’t just affect comfort—they can wear down your home over time. Here are some of the most common signs your water needs attention:

Hard Water Buildup

Spotty or Foggy Glassware

Soap Scum in Showers and Tubs

Dry Skin and Hair

Foul Taste or Smell

Stained Laundry

These common problems can affect your family’s health, your home’s plumbing, and the taste and smell of your water. A quick water test can reveal what’s really going on—and what you can do to fix it.

Uncover What’s Hiding in Your Water

Trouble in your tap? It could be affecting more than you think.

You use water all day, every day—whether you’re drinking it, cooking dinner, washing dishes, or taking a shower. But do you really know what’s in it? Many Ohio homes deal with more than just hard water. From elevated chlorine levels to dangerous contaminants like lead and PFAS, your water could be carrying hidden risks. These issues don’t just affect your plumbing—they can impact your health and peace of mind. A quick in-home water test can reveal exactly what’s in your water and guide you to the best solution to fix it for good.

When Bacteria Enter Your Water, Your Health Is at Risk

Coliform bacteria are used as indicators of possible contamination. The presence of E. coli can signal fecal contamination, which poses serious health risks. These bacteria can enter water supplies through runoff, septic issues, or infrastructure failures—especially in rural or aging water systems.

Even Small Amounts of Lead Can Be Dangerous

Lead often leaches into tap water from aging pipes, solder, and plumbing fixtures—especially in homes built before 1986. Even small amounts of lead can be harmful, particularly for children and pregnant women, as it can impair brain development, reduce IQ, and contribute to behavioral issues. Unlike other contaminants, lead is tasteless, odorless, and invisible, making it difficult to detect without proper testing. Long-term exposure can also increase the risk of high blood pressure, kidney damage, and other serious health concerns. Ensuring your home’s plumbing and water quality are lead-free is essential for the health and safety of your family.

Chlorine Keeps Water Safe—But at What Cost to Your Home and Health?

Chlorine is commonly added to municipal water supplies to kill bacteria and viruses—but that protection can come with downsides. Many Ohio homeowners notice a strong chemical smell or taste in their tap water, which can make drinking, cooking, and bathing unpleasant. Prolonged exposure to chlorine may also irritate skin, dry out hair, and potentially create harmful byproducts like trihalomethanes (THMs). While it’s effective for disinfection, chlorine can be harsh on your body, your plumbing, and even your appliances—especially if left unfiltered.

The Hidden Danger of “Forever Chemicals”

Also called “forever chemicals,” PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are man-made compounds that don’t break down easily in the environment or the human body—earning them their ominous nickname. These chemicals have been linked to serious health issues, including cancer, hormone disruption, developmental problems, and weakened immune function. Alarmingly, PFAS have been detected in multiple Ohio water systems, putting families at risk without their knowledge. Exposure can come through drinking water, cooking, and even bathing. The threat may be invisible, but the consequences are real.

When Farm Runoff Reaches the Faucet: The Hidden Risk of Nitrates

Nitrates are a common contaminant in rural water supplies, often the result of fertilizer runoff from nearby farms. While not immediately noticeable, high levels of nitrates in drinking water can be especially dangerous for infants. One serious condition, known as “blue baby syndrome,” occurs when nitrates interfere with the blood’s ability to carry oxygen—leading to a bluish skin tone and potentially life-threatening complications. Families who rely on private wells or live near agricultural areas are at greater risk. Regular water testing and treatment can help ensure your drinking water is truly safe.

“Chris Carr was absolutely amazing! My pipes had roots in them built up real bad and I was hoping we wouldn’t have to replace anything and him and his assistant and supervisor kicked ass and got my clean out taken care of and even gave us great tips to keep up on preventative care as well. He was very informative, fun to talk with and extremely personable, and even took care to clean up after the job super well! We’ll definitely be using them in the future!”

“This was our second time using Five Star Home Care in Xenia, and they were just as great as the first. We had a clogged shower drain on a Sunday and were surprised to book an appointment that same morning! James Ashley, our technician, was professional, polite, and efficient. He cleared the drain, checked our pipes, and left the area spotless. Big thanks to Alexis for her help setting everything up. Highly recommend James and the Five Star team!”

“Chris did an amazing job! Our system was badly backed up just days after our home warranty expired. He and two other techs worked nearly 10 hours yesterday and Chris returned today for two more. What should’ve cost nearly $1,000 was cut in half thanks to the team’s generosity—and Chris’s hard work likely saved us from an $8,000 repair. Reminder: stay on top of roots in your lines—they can get out of control fast!”

Frequently Asked Water Filtration Questions

You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers!

At Five Star Home Services, we recommend a combination of reverse osmosis systems and water softeners to ensure the highest water quality. The RO systems effectively remove contaminants, while the water softener addresses hard water issues, providing you with clean and soft water.

While no single filter can remove everything, a reverse osmosis system coupled with a multi-stage filtration process, including a carbon filter and sediment filter, comes close. This combination effectively reduces bacteria, chemicals, and other impurities.

Absolutely. Investing in a home water filtration system enhances water quality, protects your plumbing from scale formation, and ensures your family has access to safe and purified water. It’s a sustainable solution that pays off in the long run.

The cost varies based on the system’s complexity and your specific needs. Typically, a full system can range from $1,000 to $4,000, including installation. At Five Star Home Services, we offer competitive pricing and financing options to fit your budget.

Reverse osmosis is one of the most effective methods for treating water, as it removes a wide range of harmful contaminants. By combining RO systems with pre-treatment solutions like carbon filters, we ensure optimal water quality for your home.

Regular maintenance is crucial. We recommend replacing RO membranes every 2-3 years and cartridge filters every 6-12 months, depending on usage and water quality. Our team at Five Star Home Services can assist you with a maintenance schedule tailored to your system’s needs.
