"Absolutely GREAT! I had places to go in December and ordinary bathing and laundry had become extremely time consuming and the problem was worsening. He came out on an already busy day for him and had the whole system (more complicated than some) removed, and the plumbing working again very well in a bit over an hour. Wonderful! I can't add enough superlatives! Left a clean area, besides!"

"Plumbzona pulled my tub and replaced it with a shower. The work was done when he said it would be and it was done right the first time. We are very happy with plumbzona and will definitely use them again for my plumbing needs."

"Aldo was great. He came about two hours after I called him. I have an old AC unit that I wanted him to repair so it would last a couple of more months. The last HVAC guy told me there was nothing to be done and handed me an estimate for a new unit: $17,500. Aldo took care of the problem, and for a very reasonable price. I only wish I had called him first. He was very helpful and not rushed. It has been many years since I hired anyone to repair anything that impressed me as much as Aldo did. He's a star."

"I had a problem at my vacation rental. John contacted me quickly when I posted my problem for quotes online. I had a failing septic. It was no longer draining. John came out and accessed the the situation and based on faulty drawings I supplied, he gave me an estimate for repair. I agreed to the figure. When he discovered that the drawings were wrong and he only had to dig up 5 feet (not 14) between the septic tank and the seep box he lowered his estimate. You can't ask for more honesty and fairness. He and his worker completed the job in less than 2 days. Hire him!"

"Overall, it went excellent. First and mainly, after over 4 months, we are simply delighted with having this liner in the crawlspace. Allergies that were bugging me for the past 7 or so years are gone. Can't say it will affect others that way, but for me, it did -- granted, we had done a lot of research and also cleaned up down there thoroughly prior to finally installing this liner. The liner was the final touch, the part that we did to help maintain the cleanliness.
John, the person who comes to give the estimate, won me over completely; he's just very honest and sincere. And that was the final point that made me decide to go with Clean Crawlspace and not another company that had come to give an estimate. I'd read that Clean Crawlspace prices are more sometimes, but for us it was only some $150 more, but that was worth it to me for other value I felt we would be getting.
David, the owner, is simply wonderful to work with too--so nice and accommodating. I had many questions before we started and he responded quickly and thoroughly to my inquires.
The job took 4 full days. We had some tricky places to seal in, where our cinder block base around the perimeter was missing and the foreman was not sure of the best way to proceed on those (though he had ideas), so he erred on the side of caution, until he was able to get David's advice. There was a little miscommunication between us and foreman in that regard, but David cleared it up immediately via phone, and bent over backwards to be sure we were also satisfied. They did everything and went beyond the call of duty to be sure we were comfortable and satisfied.
John came out and checked everything, too. He also offered to come out during the rainy season to check the tricky areas. They are confident it will be fine, but he offered to do this to give me peace of mind. (That visit hasn't happened yet, since there's not yet been rain.)
I'm just very pleased with the product and the customer service, which is excellent. They are like your friends.
...One note to be aware of: after putting in the lining, after about 3 months, we noticed that the oak floor (original from 1948, with the nail holes in full view and everything) must have dried up some as there are now cracks between the wall and the oak floor that were not there before. It is not everywhere and in the widest area it is only 5mm. Our general contractor was here the other day, and he agrees with us that it must be from the planks drying out, from the reduction of humidity in the crawlspace. I don't know if that would happen with newer floors, but it is something to be aware of. Anyway, we have no problem with this, and plan to simply apply some oak-colored caulking, because the reduction in the humidity and the disappearance of those irritating allergy symptoms has been WELL worth this little inconvenience.
We haven't yet used the crawlspace as a storage area, but it is definitely possible with the lining there. Needless to say, service workers who've had to go under there are thrilled with the liner (we had to have a plumber check something, and also a pest control check something). My husband is hoping that he won't have to go under there anymore, anyway, with all the clean up and the final point of this liner keeping it all clean, and so far, so good.

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

The pressure in a well pressure tank should be set 2 to 3 PSI below the pump's cut-on pressure. The cut-on pressure is the lower number in the pressure setting (e.g., the '30' in 30/50 PSI) and is the point at which the pump starts. The cut-out pressure is the higher number, where the pump stops.

For example:

  • If your pressure switch is set to 30/50 PSI, the tank pressure should be 27-28 PSI.

  • If your pressure switch is set to 40/60 PSI, the tank pressure should be 38 PSI.

Common pressure settings for household applications include 20/40, 30/50, and 40/60 PSI. The difference between the cut-on and cut-out pressure is typically 20 PSI.

Age is certainly a factor in well pump failure. The older your pump, the more likely it is to fail. 

Beyond age, other factors can cause your well pump to fail, too. Things like poor water quality can cause sediment buildup in your pump. Without proper cleaning, your pump can seize up and fail. Having a dry well for too long can also cause your pump to fail, as it keeps working even though there's no water for it to pull. 

Regular checks of pressure tanks, testing water quality, and cleaning intake screens.

Here are some signs of a bad well pump that a pro should look at: 

  • If your well pump isn’t pumping water, you could have a leak or malfunctioning pump on your hands. 

  • If your water pump runs nonstop, there might be a leak or problem with the pressure tank, which can cause the pump to fail. 

  • Low water pressure can happen because of your pressure tank, low-water levels, or a wrong-sized pump. 

  • Dirt or sediment in your water can be a problem with a powerful pump, damaged pump filter, or the pump’s location.

Some states and municipalities restrict well pump repair and replacement to licensed plumbers and technicians, while others don’t have requirements. However, it’s always a good idea to hire a certified plumber to repair or replace well pumps and water pumps. Certified professionals are far more likely to get the job done correctly and prevent future issues, which is especially important for ensuring access to clean water for your home.
