Frequently Asked Questions

How much does well pump repair cost?

Repair costs vary depending on the problem. Simple electrical fixes or pressure switch replacements typically cost $200-500. Pressure tank replacement runs $500-1,200. Pulling and replacing a submersible pump ranges from $1,500-3,500 depending on well depth. We provide upfront quotes before any work begins.

Should I repair or replace my well pump?

Generally, if your pump is over 10-15 years old and needs major repair, replacement is often more cost-effective. We'll give you an honest recommendation based on the pump's age, condition, repair costs, and your water demands. Sometimes a repair makes sense; sometimes replacement is the smarter investment.

How long do well pumps last?

Quality submersible pumps typically last 10-15 years with proper installation and favorable water conditions. Pumps in wells with sandy, sediment-heavy, or corrosive water may fail sooner. Jet pumps average 10-12 years. Regular maintenance and proper sizing can extend pump life significantly.

Do you offer emergency pump repair service?

Yes! We offer 24/7 emergency service for no-water situations. Call (760) 440-8520 anytime — day, night, weekends, or holidays. We prioritize emergencies and can often respond same-day. We carry common parts and pumps on our trucks to restore your water as quickly as possible.

Why is my well pump cycling on and off constantly?

Rapid cycling usually indicates a pressure tank problem — either a failed bladder or incorrect air charge. Other causes include a faulty pressure switch, check valve failure, or a small leak in the system. This wastes energy and wears out your pump prematurely. We can diagnose and fix the issue quickly.

What brands of well pumps do you service?

We service all major pump brands including Grundfos, Franklin Electric, Goulds, Pentair, Sta-Rite, Flotec, and more. Whether you have a submersible pump, jet pump, booster pump, or agricultural system, we have the expertise and parts to repair or replace it.
