How we work through a well pump problem

No water at the house, pressure that keeps dropping, or a pump that never shuts off. We check the system in order and repair or replace the part that failed.

  • No water at the house traced through power, pressure switch, tank and pump
  • Low or dropping water pressure checked at the gauge and at the tank
  • Pumps that short cycle or run without building pressure
  • Pressure switch replacement, with cut in and cut out pressures set
  • Control box, wiring and breaker faults on the pump circuit
  • Pulling a submersible pump, drop pipe and wire for inspection

Well Pump Installation

The complete pump system on a new or existing well

Core Well Drilling installs the complete pump system on new and existing wells. That covers the submersible pump, the pitless adapter, the pressure tank and switch, and the hookup at the house.

  • Submersible pump sized to the well's depth, casing size and yield
  • Drop pipe and pump wire run down the casing
  • Pitless adapter set below the frost line at the wellhead
  • Well cap on casing that stands above the ground
  • Pressure tank and pressure switch set to matching cut-in and cut-out pressures
  • Tank precharge checked before the tank is plumbed in

Pressure Tanks

A pressure tank sized to the pump on your well

A well pressure tank holds water under pressure so the pump does not run every time a faucet opens. We install and replace pressure tanks across the Upstate, sized to the pump on your well.

  • New pressure tanks on new wells and on existing well systems
  • Replacement of waterlogged tanks and split bladders
  • Tank sizing matched to the pump and to how much water the house uses
  • Air precharge checked and set 2 psi under the cut-in pressure
  • Pressure switch set to standard pairs such as 30/50 or 40/60 psi
  • Pressure switch replacement when the switch is the part that failed

Water Lines

Trenching and hookup from the wellhead to your house

We trench and lay the water line from the wellhead to the house or the barn. Old lines that leak or sit too shallow get replaced the same way.

  • Trenching the water line from the wellhead to the house
  • Pitless adapter at the casing so the line leaves the well below the frost line
  • Pipe laid below the frost line and bedded before the trench is backfilled
  • Replacing an old or leaking well water line
  • New line run to a barn, a shop or a hunting camp
  • Hookup at the house, into the pressure tank and the pressure switch

Irrigation Wells

Wells sized for irrigation systems, livestock and farm ponds

Irrigation and farm wells for sprinkler systems, livestock, ponds and pools around the Upstate. We size the pump to the well and run the line out to the field.

  • New irrigation wells for lawn, pasture and crop sprinkler systems
  • Livestock wells for stock tanks, barns and pasture troughs
  • Wells drilled to fill and top off farm ponds and pools
  • Agricultural wells for small farms and rural acreage in the Upstate
  • A site survey before scheduling to pick where the well goes
  • A written estimate that quotes a minimum depth and explains the casing
