80% of housing is detached houses.
Free to homeowners in Jonestown — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

In Jonestown, 80% of housing is detached. On a private well the householder is the water utility: no one else tests it, and a pump that short-cycles has usually lost the air charge in its pressure tank.

What this site is
PumpDepth is a referral service, not a contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We carry out no work, we sell no equipment, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.Jonestown in numbers

Short cycling is the tank, usually
A pump that starts and stops every few seconds has almost always lost the air charge in its pressure tank. Running it that way is what kills the motor.
No water at all
Work outward: the breaker, then the pressure switch, then the tank, then the pump. Most no-water calls stop at one of the first three, and all three are above ground.

Checking a plumber in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania has no state license for plumbers. Its Department of Labor and Industry states it has no jurisdiction and keeps no records of which municipalities require one, so the only reliable answer is your own city or township. Start here. Ask the contractor which municipality licenses them and confirm it with that office before work begins.
