I can't say enough nice things about this company. Wanted to prophylactically replace my pump which was quite old before it failed. The Berg's and their company were very responsive in these challenging times and I am very pleased with the completed project.

They researched my original installation and arrived with all possible parts that may be needed and replaced only what was bad. From first call to replacing a blown submersible pump was only three hours. Crew was very courteous and professional. I highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: Had no water. Water pump and pressure tank needed to be checked and repaired.

Called them and they rearranged their day to get a team here within an hour. They found a bad controller/switch, adjusted the pressure on the pressure tank, and replaced the pump - all in under 4 hours.

Very prompt service. Thoroughly explained what was wrong and how it would be fixed. Their prices were similar to other service providers. They seemed to be honest folks that provided the required services at a fair price. I would recommend Berg Well Drilling to anyone who needs to have their well serviced.
Description of Work: Replaced failing well pump, control box, wire and a section of drop pipe.

Mr. Berg (the first) told me he would call me at noon the next day and let me know when his son would be heading my way. He called promptly at noon and asked if I still had water, which I did. They had an emergency "no water" call at an adult foster care home in a neighboring county and Mr. Berg asked if it would be ok to reschedule and come out first thing in the morning. I agreed and at 8:30 am the next day, Mr. Berg (the first) called to let me know that Doyle Berg III was on his way. This is a wonderful family to deal with because they are knowledgeable, polite and very organized. All the repairs went very smoothly and I've had no problems since. I would highly recommend their services!
Description of Work: They responded within an hour of when I called them to report that I had no water. This is a business that employees three generations of Bergs. Doyle Berg II assessed the problem as a bad bladder tank that prompted the pump to start and stop way too often which led to a burned-out pressure switch. Mr. Berg II sanded the points on the switch to get it to work temporarily. Doyle Berg (the first) called me back a few hours later with an estimate for the repairs. I agreed to the cost and the repairs.

Description of Work: The ai compressor for the well failed. They replaced compressor, switch, and pressure guage. Identified some pipes that needed immediate replacement. These guys did an incredible job! Very puctual. arrived within the hour. in and out. cleaned up after them selves. Heres what amazed me---first time customer, i wasnt planning on a $600 repair this week. The owner offered payment arrangements saying h*** do whatever we need. I expected credit apps or something. He dropped off a bill the following evening and told us just mail a check whenevr youre ready. Didnt make us sign anything...Heres a reputation made the old fashioned way...TRUST! Bergs trust in us helped eliminate a really stressfull experience for us and alone has earned my business and my referrals without question. These guys were GREAT!!!

I've given it a lot of thought in the weeks since and can only speculate as to why he never responded. We live lakeside, and were looking for someone to drill a shallow well. I'm thinking that there isn't much money to be made from drilling a 35 foot well, when other customers need 100+ foot wells. I don't think he wanted to waste time with us when there was better money to be made elsewhere. That's the only theory I can come up with that makes sense, as each phone call was pleasant and I really believed him each time he said he'd send us a proposal. If he'd simply said this up front, or that he was sorry, but his firm only specialized in deep well digging I would have understood and moved on. It was just that both our sons are ordained and he came highly recommended so I kept giving him the benefit of the doubt. Definitely not how I do business.
Description of Work: This firm came highly recommended by a local plumber. I called five separate times to arrange a quote and each time Mr. Berg told me it would be forthcoming. I told him he came highly recommended and that we thought it was worth the wait for to be able to do business with a quality firm. Unfortunately, he never called, emailed, or snail-mailed us the proposal after promising five separate times to do so.

We called Berg Well Drilling because we did not have any water. Doyle Berg Jr. came out and determined that our well pump had frozen and the pump casing had split. He had to make two trips, one to determine the problem, and another to replace the pump. He was very professional, friendly, prompt, and showed us how to use and take care of the new pump. I would definitely use Berg Well Drilling again.
Description of Work: Replaced the well pump, and checked to see that the pipes under the house were not frozen.

Woke up in the morning, well was no longer working, contacted Berg Well Drilling to discuss the issue. They were out at the house by 11:00 am. They pulled the original well permits to try and get an idea of how deep the well was. Per the permit the pump was only down 40 feet. Berg suggested we try and pull the pump out by hand to save some money if he didn't have to leave and bring back his well truck. Found out well was much deeper. He left, was back within 2 hours with his truck, took a little over 2 hours to pull the old pump out and place the new one in. Upon inspection it was determined that the cause of the failure was from lightning. He worked with my insurance company for reimbursement of the costs of the replacement minus my deductible. Was still having some pressure issues after work was completed, he came back out to the house a couple of days later, tested my pressure tank and pressure switch, made a suggestion to me on what to clean out which helped my pressure. He did not charge me for the second trip to the house. It wasn't great to have this experience but working with Berg made it a lot easier. Very friendly, professional and accommodating, answered my questions while doing the work. From what I've read the price was maybe a little more than what I could have gotten through other companies but the overall experience working with Berg was so good I wouldn't hesitate to suggest one of my friends calling them even if it were to costs a little more. The customer service aspect was totally worth it.
Description of Work: Replaced well pump. Pump was down 185 feet.

Description of Work: I needed to have my well chlorinated. Well driller "A" was called. He was unable to pull up the pump. He even poured acid down the well to loosen the rust but was still unable to remove the pump. He said I might need a new well to the tune of over $10,000. Berg was called and promptly came out. Mr. Berg said I would not need a new well. He had to put in a new pressure tank, mostly because of the acid which loosened alot of gunk. After pulling the pump he chlorinated the well and I have never had better water pressure. I am extremely impressed with the service I received from Berg's. I will definitely call them if I ever have any other problems. I can't say enough about them.
