Overview
Finding the real cause
A private well system has several parts that work together: the pump in or above the well, a pressure tank that stores water under pressure, a pressure switch that tells the pump when to run, and the electrical controls that power it. When one piece fails, the symptoms often look the same — low pressure, no water or a pump that won't stop running. Guessing leads to replacing parts that didn't need replacing.
Our repair visits start with testing. We check pressure readings, the tank's air charge, switch operation, voltage and the controls to narrow down the cause. Then we explain what we found and what we recommend. Many problems can be fixed by repairing or replacing a single component. If the pump itself has failed, we'll walk you through well pump replacement options instead.
Common Reasons
Common well pump problems we repair
Low or fluctuating pressure
Pressure that surges and fades is often a pressure tank or switch problem, though a worn pump or clogged filter can cause it too.
Short cycling
A pump that clicks on and off every few seconds usually points to a waterlogged pressure tank or a bad air charge — and it shortens pump life quickly.
Pump won't turn on
A failed switch, a bad control box component, a tripped breaker or damaged wiring can stop a perfectly good pump. Florida's lightning season makes this especially common.
Pump runs but no water comes
This may mean a broken pipe, a failed check valve or a dropping water level, and it should be checked quickly to avoid burning out the pump.
