No Water From Your Well Right Now?
Before anything else: check your breaker. A surprising number of "dead pump" calls turn out to be that simple.
Request ServiceLosing water completely is the most disruptive well problem there is — no showers, no dishes, nothing. Before assuming the worst, a couple of quick checks take less than five minutes and occasionally solve the problem outright.
Quick checks before you call
-
Check the breaker
Well pumps are usually on a dedicated breaker. A power surge or overload can trip it without any other warning. Reset it once — if it trips again immediately, stop and don't keep resetting it.
-
Check the pressure switch
There's often a small red reset button on the pressure switch itself, near the pressure tank. Some systems trip this switch as a safety measure.
-
Listen at the pressure tank
If you can safely get to it, listen for the pump. Humming with no water movement suggests the motor is getting power but isn't moving water. Total silence suggests a power or switch issue further upstream.
-
Check for a recent power outage
Some pressure switches don't reset cleanly after a brief outage or brownout. If you lost power recently, that's worth ruling out first.
If none of that brings water back
At that point you're likely looking at a failed pump, a failed pressure switch, or a bigger electrical issue, and it's time to get someone out to look at it properly. Fill out the form below with as much detail as you can — what you've already checked, any recent changes, and what the pump sounds like (or doesn't) — and we'll prioritize getting back to you.
