Getting the Facts About Water Well Repair

When your water well isn’t working, it can be a frustrating time. After all, it is one of the most essential parts of the home. This is no do-it-yourself project, so you’ll need to call in professionals to help with any water well repair. New Prague residents know they can trust the experts at Hartmann Well Drilling to quickly and accurately diagnose and fix problems.

A well drilling company like Hartmann can come to your property and determine several different things about your well. From there we can offer some maintenance suggestions and water well repair to keep your well working as it should. Some of these include:

Inspection. You should have your water well inspected on an annual basis for any necessary water well repair. We will perform a flow test to determine the system's output, we will check the water levels before and during pumping and we will check the pump motor, among other tasks. There are several things you can do between inspections to help ensure the safety of your well and well water.

Call the professionals. Never try to service your own well. You should always call in professionals who know exactly what to do when it comes to well drilling and well maintenance. We know that there are a lot of do-it-yourselfers out there, but well maintenance and repairs are not a do-it-yourself project.

And, if your well pump is not working properly and you just had a new one installed, that might mean that it was not put in correctly in the first place. You should call the water well repair experts at Hartmann Well Drilling to come out and check on the installation job to ensure it was done correctly.

Act fast. Wells can be affected by a multitude of issues but it is always important to have them dealt with as soon as possible. For example, water well damage can even be a result of lightning striking your well. You might not even notice a problem right away but a professional water well repair company like Hartmann can pinpoint the issue.

Avoid hazardous chemicals. Keep hazardous chemicals away from your well. Be sure to occasionally look at your well cap to make sure it's not broken and in need of repair.

These are just a few of the reasons to enlist the professionals for your water well repair in New Prague. Call us at Hartmann Well Drilling at 952-758-2202, or you can contact us and get a Free Estimate.

Utilize Water Well Repair to Keep Your Flow

Your well water level varies at different points throughout any year. Your typical year offers its highest water well levels in spring (think snow melt), lowers in the late summer towards fall (think less rain). Spells of time without so much in the way of rain, will wreak havoc upon your water well levels. Those drawing their water from the ground (dug wells, shallow bedrock dug wells, wells located on high ground, etc.) are likely to be affected by dry conditions.

If you are running into issues such as no water or are experiencing general fluctuations in pressure, these phenomena can serve as indicators that your well is having a hard time keeping up with your demand. You may have issues with some of the components found within your well (waterlines, pumps, valves, etc.). If the above represent your experience, call on Hartmann Well, professional water well repair specialists to Minneapolis residents. We will pay you a visit to assess the problem(s) and go from there.  

To make it through this period of diminished water supply, conserve water and take notice of when and just how much you use. Wait a little bit to do your laundry. Cut your shower length down by a few minutes. Use your dishwasher at a time separate from when laundry is being done. Take a scattershot approach with your water usage throughout the day and night. This will allow replenishment to occur over time.

If you have attempted our suggestions to no avail, do not hesitate to call Hartmann Well. We can help with making some possible changes within your overall well set-up and water supply. We can take steps like dropping the pump itself deeper into the well so that it rests further down into the water table. You can try digging your existing well itself deeper, possibly allowing for additional water sources to enter your well.

These tasks being more involved than those which can be implemented from within the house, may call for a water well repair specialist. If you go as far as trying to carry out these tasks on your own, with minimal success (or even the likely possibility that you can damage your water system), call on a professional.
