Primary Service

Well drilling and water well installation in St. Augustine

A new well may be needed for new construction, a property that's never had its own water supply, or an older well that can't keep up anymore. The right plan depends on the site and how you'll use the water — a household alone needs something different from a home that also irrigates pasture or runs a workshop.

Drilling is only part of the job. A finished system has to move water from the well into the house at steady, usable pressure, so the pump and pressure equipment are part of the conversation from day one. We also cover access for the rig and the permitting process — in St. Johns County, well construction permits go through the St. Johns River Water Management District — so you know what's involved before work begins.

If you already have a well, we can test how it's performing before you commit to a new one. A failing pump or another piece of equipment may be the real culprit. And if a new well does replace the old one, we'll talk about properly abandoning the original.

Well pump repair and replacement in St. Augustine

Even a good well can't supply your home if the pump stops working. Losing water entirely is the obvious sign, but falling pressure, a pump that cycles on and off rapidly, or uneven flow are worth a call too. Those symptoms don't pinpoint the failed part by themselves — the pump, pressure tank, pressure switch and electrical controls all work together.

We diagnose the cause before recommending well pump replacement. If the pump has failed or no longer suits your needs, we'll explain your options and choose a replacement matched to your well and expected water use. After installation, we check system operation and pressure. If something else is to blame, the repair estimate focuses on that instead.

When you call, let us know whether the water stopped suddenly or faded over time, whether the pump seems to cycle, whether there was a recent storm or power outage, and whether the problem affects the whole property. Those details help us narrow it down quickly.

Well inspections

An inspection helps an owner or buyer understand a private well. It's useful before a real estate closing, after a home has sat vacant, or when the system starts acting differently. We review the accessible well and pressure-system components, check performance, and explain what we observe. If you'd also like water sampling or lab testing, that scope is spelled out separately in the estimate.

An inspection can't promise a well will never need repairs, but it gives you a clear view of current conditions so you can decide whether maintenance, further testing or equipment work makes sense.

Well abandonment

A well that's permanently out of service needs more than a lid. Proper abandonment fills and seals the well using the required method so it doesn't become a direct path for surface contamination to reach the groundwater. It often comes up when a new well replaces an old one, or when a property connects to a different water supply.

We assess the existing well, explain the abandonment scope, and handle the applicable permitting and paperwork. Florida's water well rules govern this work, so the well's construction and condition shape the plan.

Which service do you need?

You don't have to diagnose the problem yourself. If you have no water, the pressure has changed, or you're planning to build, tell us what's going on. We'll find the right starting point and explain the proposed work before you decide. You can also read how we work.
