Called on a Saturday morning with low water pressure. Dispatched a service call by 5pm. Very professional throughout the process. Diagnosed the issue quickly and had the well pump replaced and back in service within 2 or 3 hours. It was expensive but I also requested weekend service which costs much more. Although the service provider (Chuck) did offer a less expensive fix we went with the full pump replacement, which he agreed was the best option. End of the day he helped us get our water pressure from 20 pounds to 60... and upgraded the pump so that we would have fewer issues in the future. Very happy with the results.

Same day service performed once I discovered this morning I had a problem with house/well pressure. Essentially, the "T" fitting that was installed in 2008, by another company along with new pump, had rusted a hole thru it on backside of fitting (galvanized). Pump was running constantly unable to build up pressure. Installer replaced with a brass fitting (pulling pipe up from well) and made corrections to how the vertical and horizontal pipes were aligned/supported. They were very friendly and professional both on the phone and in person. I even got a follow up call after service was completed. Found on Angie's list and was not disappointed. In the event I need further service, they get the

The company grossly overcharged for the work that it did, and it didn't insulate the new pipes that it installed. This lead to the pipes freezing in the winter which caused further problems. The company sent a technician out to inspect the pipes, and he confirmed that they were indeed frozen. However, he stated that the company doesn't insulate pipes and wanted to charge me $85 just for coming out to do the inspection which was ridiculous. I ended up talking them down to $45 instead.

Response from Aqua Well & Pump Systems Inc
Aqua is sorry to see the bad review written by the member. Aqua installed a pressure tank in July of 2013 in a utility room because there is no basement. the member well system was installed by another company in 1990. Aqua simply replaced his pressure tank & fittings in the same location. Unfortunately due to our extremely harsh winter many people including many municipalities had freezing issues that they never had before. Aqua Well does not install heat tape on any type of plumbing due to the liability. the member called Aqua the day of service and said his water had come back on but would still like it checked. We do charge a service call and it is always quoted over the phone, as it was when we did the tank replacement. Our technician even moved the member van for him at his request so he would have better access to it with his wheelchair. We wish this would have had a better outcome however Aqua cannot control the weather & hope the members issue was resolved.

Relatively simple repair, seemed a reasonable price. Super nice fellow stayed after hours to make sure my repair got done the day it was scheduled. I thought the $85 trip charge in addition to the hour of labor was a bit pricey.

They had all the parts needed with them on the service call. They also pointed out a few things that we might want to look into replacing in the future. We need have our electric conduit changed out which they service man said he could change out but it would cost less if we would call an electrician. We appreciated his honesty.

Excellent, friendly and efficient service. There was a problem with the pump 2.5 months later and they came out on a Saturday to figure it out and replaced the box and the flow sensor in the basement. The problem was in the pump, but it was under warranty, and they wound up replacing a check valve down in the well on the following Monday. They were very responsive and we're very happy with their service.
Description of Work: We had our submersible pump replaced and the electric circuit upgraded to 220 for it.

Better than expected - at first we thought the washer had died, it was just humming and stuck at the end of the fill cycle. I was trying to figure out if I could confirm exactly what was wrong with that, when my wife was going to make some coffee and she figured our we didn't have any water. The company that had dug the well and installed the pump was located just 2 miles from here but they had closed years ago, so I went to Angies List to look. Selected Aqua because they generally had good reviews and they were only about 15 miles away. It was a good choice because less than six hours from the time we found no water 'till the new pump was installed. We never had a new pump installed, regardless who does it and how efficient they are, it will be a pain. The pump company has to chlorinate the well and you can't use it for at least 8 hours, so we ended up getting a hotel room for the night. Then you have to run the well to get the high levels of chlorine out, it took over 5 hours. You also probably will want to take all the aerators off your faucets for a while - the pump removal, chlorination, and disruption caused all sorts of fine grit that got into the house pipes (we did flush the toilets before the chlorine was out and before I brought the filters and softeners back on line) Removing them in advance would be easier than cleaning the grit out of the aerator screens. All in all, I can't complain. I suspect I could have gotten a better price - had I waited until Monday and did some shopping but then we would have been disrupted during the work week. I gave them a B on price - based on the last estimate i got I was expecting 1500 give or take... I also only gave them a B on quality because of my read of the warranty. I reviewed the manual for the pump and it read something like for 18 month from manufacture date or 1 year from installation, whichever comes 1st. That just struck me as strange. It sounded like the pump could actually have no warranty if it was manufactured 18 months ago. Maybe I misread it but that was my 1st impression and it didn't inspire confidence. I'm hoping it will be good for another 30+ years.
Description of Work: On a Saturday afternoon the faucets went dry - I called Aqua for a service call. They indicated there was a fee for weekend service calls and that someone could be here be here within a couple hours. In less than the 2 hours the doorbell rang, and their technician introduced himself and explained what was included in the fee. He would troubleshoot both downstairs and (if necessary) outside. He determined that problem wasn't in the basement and checked the well outside. He indicated that there was a short but he couldn't be sure if it was in the wiring or the pump. He would need to pull the pump, to trouble shoot that. He quoted me a price for replacing the pump and I agreed. In the basement he installed a new foot valve, new pressure gauge and switch, He backed his truck up to the well, adjusted the hydraulics, and proceeded to extract the pump. When the pump was out he gave me the option of testing the wires or the pump for the short. I declined (the pump was over 30 years old) and had him install a new pump, new wires. He chlorinated the well. He then bypassed the water filters and softeners and tested the new pump. Then explained what he did, how long we had to wait before flushing the chlorine out of the well and the water sampling procedure and when I needed to submit it. All in all I don't think he was here more than 4 hours - the one technician did it all himself.

Everything went very well and was all done within a matter of hours.
Description of Work: We had a leak in our well pressure tank. Chuck from Aqua Well came to the house within 2 hours of us calling the company. He checked over everything, finding the tank was cracked and water was spilling out. We needed to replace the tank. He made a call, and ordered the tank. The tank was here at the house within about 30 minutes. He installed the new one and all was taken care of. All in the same day. We will certainly call them again with any other problems.

I was amazed at how quickly the company responded to our questions and actually came out to look at the well. When the serviceman, Ezra, determined that there was a hole in the pipe leading to the well as well as a 20+ year old pump, he gave us several options as to how to address the problem from simply replacing the pipe, to replacing the pump and the pipe, to capping the well and hooking up to city water, each with its pluses and minuses.When he replaced the pump he decided to pull it from the ground by hand rather than driving his truck over the lawn Wow! He seemed to have more respect for our needs than his own! I would use this company again for any service that they perform and would definitely recommend them to others. They are great!
Description of Work: Outside water well did not hold pressure. Determined that both the pipe to the well and the pump itself were defective. Replaced items.

We went to bed Friday with no water and my sons opening night of his first play the next day. I called Aqua Well Saturday and told them the problem and our time constraints. They were out within an hour and had us fixed up within 20 minutes. Josh was a true professional and so incredibly knowledgable. He explained everything to myself and my father in law so we could explain it to my husband. He answered all of our questions and told us about the well system we have and how it works. I will always call Aqua Well for anything we need.

Aqua was great, the day before closing on our home sale, the buyers mortgage company demanded a well inspection and water test. Aqua was able to fit us in for the well inspection the following morning and when the inspection determined that the well was too close to the septic mound by a few feet and that they well casing was too low they contacted the DNR in Madison and worked to get a variance the same day the application was submittied. They also extended the well casing by 6 inches. Overall Aqua went above and beyond to get our well passed for closing. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Since it had gone through the pump prior to leaking there water was black from the inside of the tank and very difficult to clean.

If you think you need a new well, DEFINATELY have someone evaluate the well for air-lifting. This process restored a well which was yeilding only 1 gallon per minute, and now yeilds in excess of the pump capacity (10+ gal/minute)....at a small fraction of the cost. The crew was great about explaining the process and timelne, and was very clear upfront about the unavoidable damage to nearby plant beds...which gave us plenty of time to temporarily relocate plants. Very responsive on the phone, too, and quick to fix a check valve that became faulty.

I noticed water on the floor around the water pressure tank in my basement. I called Aqua because I had used them before with good results. They came out that same afternoon. Chuck & Jared, the service techs, checked it out. They determined there was a rust hole in the bottom of the tank & showed it to me. I decided to have it replaced & they were able to do it right away. The old tank sat directly on the floor. When the new tank was installed the guys put "feet" under it so it was up & off the cement floor. They were friendly, considerate & cleaned up after themselves. (always appreciated!)

We were very disappointed that Aqua did not stand behind their work. They replaced pump and tank in June 2005. Because of how they did the replacement pump originally, after 2 years it had major leakage and spraying problems. We do not feel that it is our problem and therefore should not be made to pay for the repair. We told them so. They insisted that we pay for the repair. Even after we complained that we did not feel it was our responsibility.
