Well Pump Repair in Castle Pines, CO

Signs that sound like pump trouble

• Water stops at every fixture at once
• Pressure that is weak and getting weaker
• Sputtering faucets after the water was off
• A banging or humming sound in the pipes
• Wet spots in the yard between the street and the house

On a private well these would point to the pump, switch or tank. In Castle Pines, where water arrives from a district main, they usually mean a problem with the service line, the pressure regulator or the district's system.

Castle Pines water service

Castle Pines North Metropolitan District (CPNMD) provides both drinking water and wastewater service to the community. From October through April it also buys wholesale water from Highlands Ranch Water, so the water you get can change with the season, and CPNMD is a partner community in Rueter-Hess Reservoir. The Village at Castle Pines, just south of the city, is served by a separate district, Castle Pines Village Metropolitan District, whose system runs on eight groundwater wells.

Groundwater supply doesn't mean you have a well pump. The district pumps, treats and pressurizes the water; your home receives it through a meter. If you lose water, call CPNMD at (303) 688-8550 or your Village district first to rule out a main break or planned work. If neighbors have water and you don't, the problem is likely on your side.

In The Village, every home and business has a backflow prevention device, and devices on fire sprinklers or permanently plumbed pools and hot tubs must be tested yearly by a certified tester registered with BSI Online.

What affects the price

• Whether the issue is a pressure regulator, a fixture or a buried service line
• How deep and how long the line run is, and what sits on top of it
• Backflow device repair or replacement in The Village
• Permits: the City of Castle Pines treats water and sewer line repair or replacement as a 1-Stop permit
