Water Well Services

Reduce your lawn sprinkler costs by installing or maintaining a well system in Martin County – Stuart, Jensen Beach, Sewall’s Point, Port Salerno, Hobe Sound and Palm City

There are only two forms of possible water supply to your home; one is city water and the other is a well. In Martin County, well water can be an affordable and safe alternative to city water. As a new or prospective home owner, it’s a great idea to have a well contractor go through your system and help you get familiar with it.
Even if you have city water, using a well to supply a sprinkler system is usually more cost effective then using city water with the main expense being the minimal cost of electricity to run a water pump. If your well was installed prior to 1992, it is probably below ground. That is challenging to some new home owners and prospective buyers as they may not be able to locate an old well. Unresolved, this can be an issue.

We are able to locate wells if their location is unknown.

Water Well 101

Being unfamiliar with a well may make some people a little apprehensive about purchasing a home with a well and pump. A well is like a straw inserted into an underground aquifer. This is generally a 2” to 4” galvanized or PVC pipe. A pump pulls water from this straw, pressurizes it in a tank, and sends it into your home and/or sprinkler system. Since 1992, state law has required wells to stick up 12” out of the ground. If a well was installed prior to 1992, it is probably below ground. We are able to locate wells if their location is unknown.

Wells and the economical benefits

Even if you have city water, using a well to supply a sprinkler system is usually more cost effective than using city water with the main expense being the minimal cost of electricity to run a water pump. Some wells produce more iron than others and can stain driveways, walls, and even trees. Installing a chemical injection unit can substantially lessen staining, but does require maintenance and in turn adds additional cost. On occasion, if a well has a high iron content, it may be more cost effective for a licensed well contractor to hook a small yard up to city water to prevent iron stains.

Issues with your well?

While out of water problems and low water volume can be due to pump or tank issues, it can also be the direct result of a well problem. Incidentally, other than age and normal wear and tear, lawn mowing and landscaping are the main causes of well damage. Our technicians can evaluate and pinpoint your well problem. If a well is found to be unrepairable, it will need to be abandoned and a new well installed. (If a well is not abandoned properly, it can cause contamination of aquafers.)

There are areas in South Florida prone to certain water elements like iron or sulfur. We find this in some Martin County neighborhoods. If a well has unfavorable water, it is possible that a well contractor can install another well at a different depth and obtain better water quality. Additionally, if a well does not produce enough water volume to supply a sprinkler system, it is possible to install an additional well to add the needed volume.
