They were able to come out right away and looked over my system and determined the well pump was bad. They replaced the pump in a timely fashion and at a reasonable price

We had no idea was causing our low water pressure. Bob (service tech) came out. Discussed possible issues, answered my questions and solved the problems (in record time). He has the knowledge, tools and parts to do the job. I could not ask for better service. You bet I will call again should I run into any troubles.

I contacted them late on Friday night. I had no water. They called me first thing the next morning and were at my home in les than two hours. A friend had already determined I needed the new pump. They checked my whole system. They were excellent.

Bob (Service Tech from Rippe) was prompt, professional, and exlpained everyting before and as it was being done. My well was producing black specs in the water and suffered from irregular pressure. He first tested the well tank and after it was found to be good, then looked to the well. Upon removal of the pump a large crack was found in the side of the pump. He quickly replaced it and powered everything up for a test. All tested well and within a hour and a half of arriving he was on his way with my well functioning perfectly. I would highly recommend RIPPE in the future.

I noticed a small puddle of water along my sidewalk and knew that's where the water line comes in from the well so I called Rippe to have them come and inspect. The guy came out the same day and said that they would have to dig to find out the problem. They came the following Monday as promised and dug very carefully, making sure to not damage the electric lines or the water line. They found a pinhole in the water line and repaired it, all within 30 minutes. The only problem was that they charged me $700 just to dig. The reason the guy gave me was that "they never know what they might find". They didn't find a major issue so I didn't know why I had to pay as much as if they did. Other than that, the service was outstanding. For this price they also replaced the well tank ($300).

There was an odd smell coming from the water in the home I just purchased. My inspector said the well needed to be "shocked", which is apparently a chlorination process. I called Rippe Well to shock the well. Basically they have to pour bleach in the well. They came out and did it at the price quoted. You have to wait 24 hours before you can use the water again, and then you have to flush out the bleach in the water for about an hour, but the water does not smell bad any more. I just had it tested and it is all good.

Just bought a new house that had sat vacant for a year. When cleaning up to move in we noticed we couldn't run more than two faucets and get any volume. Bob came out next day and walked through the system checking. Turns out the pressure tank had leaked out. He refilled the pressure tank and reviewed the system again. Also suggested proper sizing for the tank (provided a quote) and how to flush out the system before we moved in.
