How often should I have my well inspected?

• <div><p>You should have your well inspected once per year. You should also have a well inspection done when you’re buying a house with a private well, when the well cap is opened, when the septic tank is repaired, or when there is flooding.</p><p>During your annual visit, a pro will make sure that everything is working correctly and check for certain contaminants, including total coliform. Every other year, they’ll look for things like metals and nitrates, and every five years, they’ll test for pesticides.</p></div>

What are the signs that a well pump is going out?

• <div><p>Here are some <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/signs-you-may-need-new-well-pump.htm">signs of a bad well pump</a> that a pro should look at: </p><ul><li><p>If your well pump isn’t pumping water, you could have a leak or malfunctioning pump on your hands. </p></li><li><p>If your water pump runs nonstop, there might be a leak or problem with the pressure tank, which can cause the pump to fail. </p></li><li><p>Low water pressure can happen because of your pressure tank, low-water levels, or a wrong-sized pump. </p></li><li><p>Dirt or sediment in your water can be a problem with a powerful pump, damaged pump filter, or the pump’s location.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

What should I consider when I drill a well?

• <div><p>When considering the price of drilling a well, factor in how much you’ll save in water costs per year. The average family of four uses <b>100 gallons</b> of water per person per day in the U.S. With a private water well, you can save hundreds each year.</p><p>Wells are also environmentally friendly. You don’t need to worry about drinking water treated with chemicals. Talk to at least three well pump contractors in your area. They’ll be able to tell you more about your options, give you different quotes, and discuss the biggest concerns.</p></div>

How deep should a well be for drinking water?

• <div><p>Wells should be at least <b>100 feet deep</b> for drinking water, but they may need to be deeper depending on the local geology, water quality, and your household’s water usage. Work with a qualified well drilling professional who can assess the appropriate depth for your well and test the water before drinking it. </p></div>

FABULOUS!! Jonathan was amazing. He listened to what I wanted and gave very intelligent solutions. Like a pop up drain emitter to make sure we didn't get any erosion in the back yard or critters crawling into the pipe. Our sump pump was routed through a wall 18 feet away. We had Cardinal drill...

Do not hire them. Huge huge integrity issue. They came to diagnose my heat pump/ac unit figured it out. Well because I didn't hire them on, they pulled the breaker out on the outside box so my ac wouldn't work - which was working prior to them leaving. I have 2 kids just unbelievable.

J&C installed my heat pump when the old one went bad. That's the set of calls that matters most. Our inside unit started smoking--enough so that we called the fire department. It was one of the most frigid winters we've had in recent years; lots if people who had heat still had issues with...

He showed up on-time and called ahead; which was great. Once he got there he diagnosed the problem as a blown fuse, but did not have the fuse to repair it and was going to charge me extra to get the $3 fuse from Earl's and install it. I ended up paying him $55 for a 5 minute job and when I...
