F.A.Q.

Rodger Craig recommends a well inspection and a flow test. These tests will determine if the well and well system components are sized appropriately for the property and in good condition. A home inspector’s yield test is NOT sufficient to determine this information. Our flow test will  provide an accurate assessment of gallons per minute (GPM) and if it meets your family's water needs.

Rodger Craig recommends having your well water tested yearly, along with your other well water system components. Staying on top of water quality is important for properties that have a water well. Nobody wants to run out of water!

Your well may need chlorination if bacteria is present or a "rotten-egg" smell is present. This is done by introducing two types of chlorine into the well then running the treated water through the entire home's water system. This is to ensure chlorine is present at every tap and bacteria is eliminated. When having an EPA chlorination performed be prepared forgo use of the water (other than toilets) for 24 hours. Chlorine will be present at lower levels after 4-7 days.  

Yes! Your best defense against costly repairs and the stress of water outages is a properly maintained well water system. Your water system consists of many components that may deteriorate over time. One small issue can lead to damage or early failure of the well pump. Your best defense is a well inspection performed by our well water professional.
