When Is It Time to Replace a Well Pump?
The average lifespan of a well pump is around eight to 15 years. Aside from the age of your pump, some obvious signs such as little to no water in the home are key indicators of a problem. Additional signs that could suggest a potential failure are things like rusty discoloration of your water or sudden and intermittent water pressure changes. In order to avoid major disruption, it’s usually best to identify potential problems during a maintenance visit and to replace your pump before it fails.

James was very professional and listened to all I had to say. He looked everything over and left it up to me how much work I was able to afford to have him fix. James did impeccable work and I’m no longer worried about my leaking toilet, etc.

Chris Muller
Angel was super helpful and patient with our (very overdue) boiler maintenance. He explained the process before starting, provided estimates for possible work needed without feeling pushy, and was able to repair nozzle damage the same day. Very happy with the service and will keep Heritage in mind for the future.
