Emergency Well Pump & Pressure Tank Replacement

Early Friday mornings don’t always start quietly—especially when a home suddenly loses water pressure. At 7:59 a.m. on a Friday, our office received a call from a homeowner on Dove Road in Yulee, FL. The customer reported that during showers the night before they completely lost water pressure. After checking the pump house, they noticed the well pump was squealing and humming, so they wisely shut the system down at the breaker to prevent further damage.

On-Site Assessment & Approval

Upon arrival, our technician inspected the system and confirmed failure of both the existing well pump and pressure (bladder) tank. After reviewing options, the customer approved a full replacement to restore reliable water service.

Work Performed

Installed a new Bert Norman–supplied 20-gallon pressure tank

Installed a new shallow well pump
