"I do not have words to describe the rudeness and unprofessionalism I experienced working with Solutions Mechanical & Plumbing. First, the plumber and his apprentice were completely rude and seemed disgruntled by the idea that they had to fix unforeseen (but common) issues with the toilet replacement. They made disparaging comments about our house, even after we told them it was a fix-up job inherited from a deceased parent. They arrived at our homes maskless despite the pandemic and pretended to not be sure if they had masks on hand to wear. It was only after offering them spare masks of our own that they reluctantly put on theirs. After arriving, they sat in our driveway having breakfast before getting to work. The apprentice repeatedly summoned us with commands and was on his phone throughout the process. He also may or may not have smeared gum on the bumper of our car on the way out. Finally, they accidentally broke an expensive glass shelf in our bathroom, took the shelf with them, and then attempted to replace it with a poorly shaped and uneven, very cheap shelf. They refused to replace it with an equivalent shelf. When we contacted the headquarters to complain about this behavior, they provided excuses for the apprentice and the plumber and treated us with absolute disdain and rudeness. They went as far as to claim that "they don't wear masks where they're from" - not sure where they could be from that isn't also legally required to wear masks during a global pandemic. I will never work with them again and I strongly advise you to seek help for your needs elsewhere."

"Tony Hall was awesome. I know of JES since they started in the area but never had any reason to request a free inspection until I wanted to assess the condition of my crawlspace prior to selling the house. I learned so much about the function of a crawlspace and the current condition of mine. His inspection did not reveal any emergent issues with my 25 year old house but he did take the time to show me about encapsulating my crawlspace which will improve insulation properties and keep the area just about maintenance free. Included is a 25 year warranty which is transferable should I sell the house. I completely recommend JES and their inspector Tony Hall. I will be calling them to inspect and make recommendations to my next home when purchased."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

If you have a self-cleaning washing machine but you’re still seeing lint, your water pump filter might be clogged. To clean it, you should unscrew the drain hose, then remove the water pump filter. From there, you can inspect it and clean it with warm water before replacing it. Check to be sure your washing machine is functioning by running a short cycle. 

A well does not run out of water because the groundwater continues to refill with rainwater that seeps through the ground. If the well is too shallow or there is a drought, a well can run dry or be short in supply. It’s important to have a well deep enough to source enough water for your home’s use. Deeper wells tap into more groundwater reserves. If your well is not producing enough water, you may need to redig your well.

Why is my irrigation pump not pulling water?

There are a few reasons your irrigation pump isn’t pulling in water. You could have a clogged suction filter. You may have not properly primed your pump so air got stuck somewhere in the system. Your pump also won’t work properly if it has faulty or damaged pump components, like a pump motor or pressure switch.

Most well pump pressure switches have a factory setting of 30 to 50 PSI. There’s some flexibility with this if you’d like a lower or higher water pressure, but remember that it should sit 2 to 3 PSI above your well tank’s general pressure setting.

The inside of your pressure switch cover will usually indicate minimum and maximum settings—going below and above the numbers might damage your well pump.

Well pumps need power to run, so they can’t function without electricity. If your power shuts off, there can sometimes be enough pressure in the water tank to allow for a lucky flush or a bit of tap water—but this won’t last long. It’s a good idea to have a backup generator or an alternative power source like solar if you’re worried about losing power.
