With our team you can expect full preparation for every job, no matter how rushed.

"Having removed the cistern cover of the powder room toilet to disentangle the flush chain, I discovered that a gasket at the top of the ballcock mechanism was leaking and squirting water all over the place. I quickly closed the wall shut-off valve, which promptly began to leak water on to the floor. These components are 30 years old. I found SAV Plumbing on Angies List and put in a computer request for a quote. Mr. Sumilovas called me a few minutes later and I explained the problem. He came to the house in about 30-40 minutes. I showed him the parts that were leaking. He replaced the entire ballcock assembly with a new, modern type and also the wall shut off valve with a new stainless steel type of valve and braided connection pipe. The new ballcock assembly fills the tank very rapidly and is much, much quieter than the old one, so I was very pleased with it. He completed the work in less than an hour and there have been no leaks. I am very satisfied with the work, especially the fact that the replacement parts are of high quality. I have been looking for a good plumber for some considerable time and I am very happy to have found one. I will definitely call Mr. Sumilovas again if I have any further plumbing needs."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

There are many reasons you may want to extend the depth of an existing well or drill a new, deeper well on your property. A deeper well can tap cleaner water sources—shallow water may contain more contaminants. With a deeper well, you’ll also have an easier time reaching the water table depth (the level at which underground water is found) and can get past tricky soil conditions. 

Plus, if your local building code requires a minimum well depth for safety and environmental standards, you’ll meet the code by digging a deeper well in the first place.

If your well pump gets stuck in its casing, you may be able to free it loose by gently wiggling the line or by vibrations from tapping the line with a hammer. However, if your pump is stuck in a buildup of minerals around the casing, you’ll probably have to call in a well pump contractor to get it out. They’ll likely use a muriatic acid solution—a strong, corrosive acid—to break down the minerals and free the pump loose. 

To avoid a stuck pump in the future, experts recommend a professional well cleaning once every 10 years. 

Most professionals recommend that a deep well pump shouldn’t run more than 10 hours consecutively before cycling off. Overworking the well pump beyond the recommended amount can prematurely wear out your pump and burn out the motor, which means replacing it more often than you otherwise should need to. Your well pump should also come with the manufacturer’s use and maintenance recommendations that are specific to the model.

If your water pump fails, the first step is to turn off the power to the pump to prevent any further damage. Check for common issues such as clogs, electrical problems, or mechanical failures. If you cannot identify the problem, contact a professional who specializes in pump repairs. Prompt action can help minimize damage and repair costs.

Yes, you can shock a well yourself, but it can be dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing. We recommend calling a pro, but if you decide to do it yourself, make sure to follow proper safety precautions. This means wearing the correct safety gear, such as rubber gloves, goggles, and boots. You should also mix the chlorine solution in an open area with plenty of ventilation. Also, make sure not to drink or use the water for a few days afterward, until you’ve flushed the system and retested the water.
