Residential water wells provide clean water to homes across the country that don’t have easy access to a municipal water system, and while they are designed with longevity in mind, they aren’t immune to damages and breakdowns that are normal as the well ages. The earlier you recognize signs of disrepair, the sooner you can contact us here at Barefoot’s Well Drilling and Pump Service for a well repair service.
Here are a few of the top signs your well needs repair.
- Decreased water pressure. Your well should provide you with a consistent water pressure for your shower or faucets. If you’ve noticed your water pressure lowering, don’t ignore the issue. Your well may be experiencing potential clogs or other issues if your water pressure has decreased, and it’s recommended to have a professional inspect your system if this is the case.
- Discolored water. No one wants to bathe, wash their dishes, or drink discolored or murky water. Water discoloration indicates the presence of a contaminant that could be harmful if ingested or if it comes into contact with your skin. Addressing discolored water is a matter of personal safety, so you should definitely contact a well repair service if your water quality has gone down.
- Unusual noises. You should always pay attention to any unusual noises coming from any of the machinery or equipment around your home. When strange noises start coming from your plumbing system when you turn on your faucet, your well might be the culprit. Most often, unusual noises point towards a well pump issue.
