Well pump repair in Whitehouse, TX
Pump, tank and water problems for homes on wells around Whitehouse and the Lake Tyler area.
Whitehouse has grown from about 8,300 people in the 2020 census to an estimated 10,000 in 2025, and much of the growth around it is rural lots and acreage outside town water service. Between Whitehouse and Lake Tyler, many homes rely on private wells.
What should owners of newer homes on wells know?
New wells in Texas must be drilled by a licensed driller, who is required to give the owner a copy of the well log within 60 days of finishing the work. Keep that log. It records the well's depth, construction and water level, and it helps a pump company size a replacement pump correctly years later.
How far should a well be from a septic system?
Texas well construction rules set minimum distances between a new water well and sources of contamination: generally 50 feet from a septic tank and 100 feet from a septic drain field or spray area. Many Whitehouse-area lots have both a well and a septic system, so placement matters when adding a new well or system.
What do Whitehouse well calls usually involve?
- Pump failures on rural lots and acreage
- Low pressure and short cycling
- Iron staining and filter clogging
- Pressure tank and switch replacement
