Golden Gate
Golden Gate sits inland of Naples. The houses and the water are not the same conversation as a beach high-rise a few miles west.
Plumbing repair, drain cleaning, and water heaters are the everyday calls. Where a house is on a private well, we are often asked about iron staining, sediment, or a sulfur smell. Those are test-first problems. A softener does not take the place of iron or sulfur treatment, and we will say so if the test points that way.
If you are not sure whether you are on a well or a utility, check the water bill or tell us what you know when you book. The free in-home test covers hardness, pH, and iron either way.
