"Patrick was very efficient and professional. He was able to identify the issue quickly and fix it promptly. I had a few other plumbers out and they were not able to fix the problem but Patrick was able to fix it right away. He is very knowledgeable and is an expert in his field. I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is looking for a plumber."

". The first visit-. After reviewing the choices on Angies list, I read the reviews for the plumbing doctor and decided to call. John answered the phone immediately, and agreed to come fix the issue the next morning which was a Saturday!! Asked me to text the info to him, gave me a time range he was going to arrive and texted 10 minutes before arrival. Evaluated issue and fixed the clog immediately. Cleaned up after work completed and as stated above gave pointers on how to avoid future problems. Second visit of repairing tub in another condo. Again was flexible with range of times. Worked around my schedule. Due to unusual turn off valves for my condo unit, John had to return 3 times without issue and fixed the issue within 20 minutes and also checked the toilet and found that there was an issue as well and fixed it immediately without coming back for an additional visit. Worked well with our condo management company and our maintenance guy Knowledgeable, timely, efficient and communicated throughout both issues. Would definitely use again and would highly recommend.

"It was a great deal and I'm glad we had it done. The crew did the assigned work quickly and efficiently, reporting the results to me and answering my questions about other work. They offered me an alternative for rodding the waste stacks and we are considering it. There was no heavy pressure, just good information and description. It's more expensive than what we are doing now but the technique looked interesting so I will pursue and get back to them. Even if we don't do the hydroblasting we may still use this company for the rest of our work."

"I highly recommend The Scottish Plumber. I was treated with courtesy and respect throughout the entire process, and found they went above and beyond and performed high-quality work and service. Jack and Tom came to diagnose the issues and give me the best possible plan of action. Because of my budget, they came back and re-evaluated to determine what the next-best options were and what could be saved for a second phase. Homer, Bernie and Sergio O. came out for multiple days of hard, messy work - much of it in the rain. They were on time, communicative, and answered all the questions I had throughout the process. Best of all, they completed the work and did it really well. I have had terrible experiences in the past, to say the least, and was very nervous throughout this process - but these guys did right by me and my home, and I will be a loyal customer for it."

"Called Saturday morning after my sump pump malfunctioned, fortunately it was not raining. Matt answered, asked about the problem and then said he could out in a couple hours. Less than 2 hours Matt arrived, assessed the situation and replaced my old pump with a new pump. In less than a half hour later the new pump was installed and working as expected. Everything went smoothly and efficiently. Very pleased with the responsiveness. Will look to M & E Plumbing for all future plumbing needs."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

If you notice any changes to the water coming from your well, consider that a sign to get a well inspection. For example, if the water is foul-smelling, bad-tasting, cloudy, or discolored, you should call a pro. It’s also a good idea to schedule an inspection if you observe a loss of water pressure, broken equipment, loss of well capacity, or other unusual signs.

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours. Complex issues may require additional time.

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.

Yes, you can adjust your well pump pressure relatively easily by yourself. You’ll need to remove the cover from your pressure switch and adjust a nut that controls cut-in pressure. Learn more about how to adjust a well pump pressure switch with a step-by-step guide to setting your water pressure.

Excessive pressure (above 80 psi) puts too much stress on plumbing pipes, joints, and fixtures. This can lead to leaks and burst pipes. Plus, it shortens the lifespan of appliances, can waste water, and can raise your utility bills. High water pressure might feel like a gift, but it’s actually a silent threat to plumbing.
