Common Questions About Well Drilling and Pump Service
How Do I Know if My Well Pump Needs To Be Replaced?
Little to no water or a pump running constantly are indicators that your pump may be needing replaced or repaired. We work with both submersible and jet pumps. We diagnose the problem before recommending anything.
How Long Does It Take To Drill a New Well?
Most residential wells in this area are completed in one to two days. Depth and geology affect the timeline; some properties require deeper drilling due to the local formation. We'll give you a realistic estimate once we know your site.
What Is a Two-Inch Well, and Do You Still Service Them?
A two-inch well is an older style system utilizing two-inch steel casing and an above grade pump (jet pump). While installing new two-inch wells is not very common anymore, we still repair many of these systems in the area.
What Should I Do if I Suddenly Have No Water?
First check your circuit breaker. A tripped breaker or lack of correct power is a common cause of sudden water loss. If the breaker is fine, and still no water, give us a call, we respond to 'no water' situations as quickly as possible.
