"My well pump froze after 26 years of service and an inquiry to my previous well service company was not answered. I then reviewed a few companies before contacting Ramiro and discussing options for the replacement. I decided to go with an exact replacement Goulds J10S pump that I acquired and have one of Ramiro's team install it. The scheduling and installation went without a hitch. I am pleased and highly recommend Quality Pump Service."

"Tyler came out the same day, Fri, otherwise we would've had to wait until at least Monday with another plumber. He cleaned out the roots and was very respective of our property because the only access to the pump is through our master closet. After a thorough testing, it worked just fine until that evening when the pump came on and wouldn't shut off, so I just pulled the plug. It's supposed to turn on for only a short time (seconds) when waste water is present. Tyler came out the next day (Sat) and fixed the problem, which was that one of the floats in the basin was tilted on its side."

"The sewer line backed up at 8PM on a Sunday night. Called J Drains because they could come out right away. We've had problems with tree roots in the past, so figured that was the issue. They showed up around 10PM and stayed until 12AM, but were unable to clear the blockage. The person came back the next day and eventually cleared the blockage, or so I thought. One week later it was clogged again. Ended up calling another company who replaced a 12 ft section of the main sewer line between the house clean out and the city clean out (all under the yard, not the patio, thankfully).
I give J Drains credit for showing up late at night and trying to fix the issue. However, in retrospect, the guy that showed up did not really know what he was doing. The house clean out (a two way clean out) was holding water, which means that the clog was downstream. The city clean out 12 ft away was dry, so clearly the clog was in between those two. However, time after time, he put the cable down the clean out and fed out nearly 60 ft of line. Obviously that was running into the house, and he could have damaged the plumbing in the house. Then he tried to tell me that the clog was upstream of the house clean out that was holding water. How is that possible?! There was talk of busting up the courtyard patio, etc. He even took the cable up on the roof and went through a bathroom vent trying to clear the blockage. Eventually, he got lucky, and the cable went the correct direction through the house clean out, punching through the clog. Too bad the sewer line was so damaged, that a week later, it had to be replaced. This time, by a company who could correctly locate the position of the blockage, and recommend a logical plan of attack.
The last thing that bothered me about J Drains was the bill. While the cost was reasonable, the guy who came out told me that his boss wanted him to charge me over $1000 for a list of things. He proceeded to tell me that he was going to waive all those fees and only charge me $400 total (for the previous night plus that day). At the time, I thought I was getting a deal, but the more I thought about it, the more it annoyed me. It felt like they were jacking their prices up, so they could then discount it, making me feel better about what I was paying. If he was really invoicing people for less than half what he should, he'd be out of a job. So clearly, this is a company practice to make people think they're getting a deal. Not professional at all.

"I purchased the special through Angie's list for the faucet replacement. Daisy, with Rayne, called me before I could call them to schedule the appointment! Super fast, and super friendly. I got an appointment for just a couple of days later! Super convenient! When I made my appointment, I mentioned that my daughter had a show for camp on that afternoon, and they would have to be there and finished by 2pm. On the day of the appointment, they called me first thing in the morning and came even earlier than promised! Super punctual! Aaron Campa, was very friendly, and completed the work very quickly. He even checked with me on the positioning of our multi-hose connector! He went above and beyond! All in all, I couldn't say enough positive things about Rayne, and my experience with them. I will now use them for all my plumbing needs!"

"Started out as checking the reason for a leak of an old toilet and decided to replace the toilet. Ray, the worker, was professional, knowledgeable, with a helpful sense of urgency - he was able to purchase and install the toilet in the same day - on the spot. I would hire again. YAYYY!"

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

FAQs for well pump installation and replacement projects in Los Gatos, CA

Signs that your well pressure tank requires replacement include inconsistent water pressure, your pump turning on and off frequently (known as short cycling), visible leaks around the tank, or unusual noises from your well system. Physical damage, corrosion, or a tank that's reached its seven to 10-year expected lifespan may also indicate it's time for replacement. When multiple issues arise simultaneously, replacement often proves more economical than attempting repairs.

The timeframe for professional well pressure tank replacement varies depending on your specific system and any complications that might arise during installation. Factors that can affect installation time include accessibility of your current tank, whether additional components need replacement, and the complexity of your well system. For precise timing expectations, consult with the professional handling your installation.

Attempting to replace your well pressure tank involves several potential risks, including improper pressure calibration that could damage your pump, contamination of your water supply, and physical injury from handling heavy equipment. Additionally, incorrect installation might lead to water leaks, property damage, or system inefficiency. Many manufacturers also specify that professional installation is required to maintain warranty coverage, making the $125 to $200 professional installation fee a worthwhile investment for most homeowners.
