Well Pump Repair in Southwest Colorado
Serving Durango, La Plata County, and Surrounding Region
Keeping Your Water Flowing
When a well pump sputters or stalls, life grinds to a halt—showers slow to a trickle, livestock go thirsty, and businesses risk costly downtime. Animas Well Drilling has spent more than twenty years bringing wells back online quickly and correctly, so our neighbors stay focused on living, ranching, and running thriving enterprises. We combine seasoned technicians, purpose-built service trucks, and a deep inventory of parts to resolve most pump issues in a single visit. From tiny cabin systems to high-volume commercial setups, our goal is the same: restore steady water pressure, protect your equipment investment, and leave you confident the next turn of the tap will deliver.
Why Well Pump Repair Matters in the Southwest
High-desert climates and rugged geology present unique stressors to pumps, motors, and control boxes. Voltage spikes from lightning storms, abrasive sand in fractured formations, and rapid water-table swings can all shorten pump life—often without warning.
Key local pain points a prompt repair solves:
Instant water loss
Instant water loss during peak summer demand when wells are already working overtime.
Preventive cost savings
Preventive cost savings by spotting minor electrical faults or seal leaks before they escalate into full replacements.
Colorado water-rights rules
Compliance with Colorado water-rights rules that require accurate flow rates and metering for certain wells.
Energy efficiency gains
Energy efficiency gains from upgrading to modern, variable-speed motors that match output to demand and cut power bills.
Our Well Pump Repair Service
A malfunctioning pump can’t wait days for help, so we operate on a rapid-response model that minimizes disruption and maximizes transparency. You’ll know exactly when we’re arriving, what we find, and how we’ll fix it—no guesswork, no sticker shock.
Our step-by-step approach:
1. Diagnostic Call & Scheduling
A quick phone assessment narrows the likely culprit—electrical, mechanical, or water-level related—and books the earliest feasible slot.
2. On-Site Troubleshooting
Using digital amp meters, pressure gauges, and down-hole cameras, our technicians pinpoint faults without unnecessary pull-outs.
3. Repair or Replacement
We carry submersible motors, pressure switches, capacitors, and control boxes on the truck to solve common failures as quickly as possible.
If the pump must be pulled, we use hoists designed for pump size and your land geography, protecting landscaping and casing integrity.
4. Performance Audit & Optimization
Once flow is restored, we test static and dynamic water levels, inspect wiring, and verify pressure-tank settings to prevent repeat issues.
5. Owner Walk-Through & Maintenance Tips
Before leaving, we demonstrate simple checks—like listening for short-cycling or watching pressure-gauge behavior—so you can spot early warning signs.
