The problem

When the pump quits, everything stops — no kitchen tap, no stock tank, no irrigation on a 100-degree week. And a dead tap can be a $325 pressure switch or a $4,500 pump set 700 ft down; you can't tell from the faucet.

Regional outfits route Gillespie County calls behind Kerrville and Boerne jobs, so you wait days hauling water. Then they quote a full pump replacement because nobody on the truck wants to troubleshoot a control box.

We diagnose in order of cheapest-first — switch, capacitor, control box, wiring, then the pump itself — and tell you the actual failed part. Pull rig and common pump sizes are stocked in Fredericksburg, so most replacements happen within 24 hours of diagnosis.

Frequently asked questions

How fast can you get to me?

Calls that reach us by mid-morning usually get a same-day visit anywhere in Gillespie County — the truck starts on N Llano St in Fredericksburg, not in Kerrville or San Antonio.

My water is on and off — pump or pressure tank?

Short-cycling is more often a waterlogged pressure tank or a bad switch than the pump itself. That's exactly why we diagnose cheapest-first: a $500 fix shouldn't be sold as a $4,000 one.
