Direct answer
What well pump problems do you fix?
We diagnose and repair all common well pump issues: pumps that will not start, pumps that cycle rapidly, low pressure from the well, waterlogged pressure tanks, failed pressure switches, and pumps that run continuously without building pressure. For submersible pumps that have failed, we pull and replace the pump and drop pipe. We also service jet pumps, install new pressure tanks and replace pressure switches and control boxes.
No water from the well at all?
Check your breaker panel first. If the breaker is not tripped, call (940) 905-8032 and we will diagnose whether the problem is the pump, the pressure switch, the pressure tank or the wiring.
No backup supply
When the well pump stops, everything in the house stops
Homes on city water lose pressure occasionally, but the supply comes back when the main is repaired. Homes on well water have no backup. When the pump fails, there is no water for drinking, cooking, bathing, flushing or laundry until the pump is repaired or replaced.
That urgency is why we treat well pump calls as priority service. A family without water for a day faces immediate practical problems: no flushing, no handwashing, no cooking, no laundry. We diagnose and repair well systems with that urgency in mind, carrying common parts on the truck so most repairs are completed on the first visit.
Pressure tanks
The pressure tank is the most common well system failure
A pressure tank stores pressurised water so the pump does not have to run every time a tap opens. Inside the tank, a rubber bladder separates the water from a charge of compressed air. When the bladder fails, the air charge escapes into the water, the tank becomes waterlogged, and the pump starts cycling on and off every few seconds because there is no stored pressure to sustain flow between pump cycles.
Rapid cycling is the most common well system call we get, and replacing the waterlogged pressure tank is the fix. It is a same-day repair that immediately stops the cycling and protects the pump motor from the wear that short cycling causes. Left uncorrected, rapid cycling will burn out the pump motor, turning a tank replacement into a much larger pump replacement job.
How the job runs
Our well pump diagnosis process
Every well pump call starts with systematic diagnosis to identify the failed component.
- 01
Check the basics
We verify the breaker is on, the pressure switch is functioning and the electrical supply to the pump is intact.
- 02
Measure pressure
A gauge is placed on the system to read cut-in and cut-out pressures, which tells us how the pump and tank are performing.
- 03
Check the tank
The pressure tank is tested for waterlogging by checking the air charge. A waterlogged tank is the most common finding.
- 04
Test the pump
Amp draw is measured to determine whether the pump motor is working within specification or drawing excessive current.
- 05
Diagnose and repair
The failed component is identified and repaired or replaced: pressure switch, pressure tank, check valve or pump.
- 06
Test the system
The full system is run through multiple pressure cycles to confirm the pump, tank and switch are operating correctly together.
Warning signs
Signs your well pump system needs attention
- Pump cycles on and off rapidly every few seconds
- No water at any fixture in the house
- Water pressure is noticeably lower than usual
- Pump runs continuously without shutting off
- Pressure gauge reads zero or does not move
- Air sputtering from faucets when first opened
- Higher electric bills from a pump that runs too often
Before we arrive
Quick checks before calling
- Check whether the breaker for the well pump has tripped
- Listen for the pump running or cycling at the pressure tank
- Note the pressure gauge reading on the tank if one is visible
- Check whether no water is affecting the whole house or just some fixtures
- Note when the problem started and whether anything preceded it like a storm or power outage
Why us
Why rural homeowners near Wichita Falls call us for well work
Same-day priority
No water means no water. We treat well pump calls as priority service because the impact on your household is immediate.
Common parts on the truck
We carry pressure tanks, pressure switches, control boxes and common pump sizes so most repairs are completed on the first visit.
Systematic diagnosis
We test each component in order rather than assuming the pump is bad. A pressure switch or tank replacement costs far less than pulling a pump unnecessarily.
Submersible pump service
We pull and replace submersible pumps and drop pipe for wells of common residential depths. The job is completed start to finish in a single visit when possible.
Water quality awareness
Rural wells near Wichita Falls often have hard water, iron or sediment. We can recommend filtration and softening as part of the well system service.
Well systems near Wichita Falls
Rural properties and the wells that serve them
Properties outside Wichita Falls city limits in Iowa Park, Burkburnett, Archer City and across Wichita and Archer counties commonly rely on private wells for their water supply. Well depths in this area vary from shallow to several hundred feet depending on the aquifer and the location, which affects the type of pump, the drop pipe material and the cost of a pump replacement.
Many of these properties also have hard water that benefits from softening and filtration. When we service a well pump, we test the water quality and can recommend treatment if the results show hardness, iron or other issues that affect fixtures, appliances and water heater lifespan.
Pricing
What does well pump repair cost near Wichita Falls?
A pressure tank or pressure switch replacement is a same-day repair. A submersible pump pull and replacement is a larger job that depends on well depth and pump size. We diagnose first and quote in writing before starting.
