Well & Pump Repair in Central Maine

Full-service well and pump repair for drilled and dug wells across Central Maine.

Well & Pump Repair

When the water stops — or starts running dirty, weak, or short — we track the problem from the faucet back to the well and fix the actual cause, not just the symptom. Pine State Well & Pump services submersible and jet pumps, pressure tanks, switches, wiring, pitless adapters, and the controls in between. Most Central Maine homes run on drilled bedrock wells, and we know how they behave: low-yield wells that pump down, iron and sediment that chew up impellers, and pressure problems that get blamed on the pump when the tank is the real issue. We diagnose before we quote, and we explain what we found in plain terms.

We diagnose the whole system, not just the pump

A drop in water pressure can come from a failing pump, a waterlogged pressure tank, a bad pressure switch, a pinhole leak in the drop pipe, a clogged sediment filter, or a well that is simply running low. Swapping the pump when the tank is the problem wastes your money and does not fix anything. We test pressure, amperage, and well drawdown so the repair matches the fault. On bedrock wells we also check static and pumping water levels to tell a pump problem apart from a low-yield well.

Built for Maine wells and Maine winters

Most homes here draw from drilled wells 200 to 600+ feet into granite, with a submersible pump hanging on poly or galvanized drop pipe and a pitless adapter through the casing below frost line. We carry the fittings, wire, torque arrestors, and pump sizes those systems actually use, and we account for our water chemistry — iron, manganese, and grit that shorten pump life. In winter we also deal with frozen lines and freeze-prone pressure tanks in unheated basements and crawlspaces.

Well Repair — Questions We Hear a Lot

My water stopped completely — what should I check first?

Check the breaker for the well pump and the pressure switch; a tripped breaker or a switch stuck open is a common, cheap cause. If the breaker holds and you still have no water, do not keep resetting it — that can burn out the pump. Shut it off and call us. We will test whether the pump, the switch, the tank, or the well itself is the problem.

How do I know if it is the pump or the pressure tank?

Rapid on-off cycling (the pump kicking every few seconds when a tap is open) almost always points to a waterlogged pressure tank, not the pump. Weak pressure that builds slowly, or no water at all, points more toward the pump, switch, or wiring. We test both so you are not paying to replace a healthy pump.

Do you repair both drilled and dug wells?

Yes. Most Central Maine homes are on drilled bedrock wells with submersible pumps, but we also service shallow dug wells with jet pumps and the older systems still common on camps and farmhouses.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — we are a licensed, insured Maine well and pump contractor, and we disinfect the well any time the system has been opened.
