Well Pump & Pressure Tank Repair in Oakland County

Low water pressure, a pump that keeps cycling, or no water at all? Maglothin Well & Water Treatment is a family-owned, Ortonville-based well company serving homeowners across Oakland County. We’ll diagnose the problem and recommend the best fix.

Pumps are the heart of your water system. Our technicians perform pump testing to diagnose performance issues, complete efficient repairs to restore functionality, and handle professional installations for optimal performance. We work with submersible pumps, jet pumps, and booster pumps for residential and commercial properties.

Call us if you notice any of these:

• No water at any faucet, or water that sputters and spits air
• Low or weak water pressure throughout the house
• Pressure that surges or drops while a faucet is running
• The pump runs constantly or turns on and off rapidly (short cycling)
• Clicking or humming near the pressure tank or switch with little or no water
• Higher electric bills without a clear reason
• Cloudy, sandy or dirty water that wasn’t there before

Sometimes it’s the pump. Sometimes it’s a pressure switch or a failing tank. We test the whole system so you only pay for the repair you actually need.

Your pressure tank stores water and keeps pressure steady so your pump doesn’t have to start every time you open a faucet. When a tank fails, the pump works harder and wears out sooner.

Common pressure tank problems:

• Waterlogged tank — the air charge or bladder has failed, so the pump short cycles
• Rapid on/off clicking at the pressure switch
• Pressure swings in the shower or at faucets
• Leaks, rust or corrosion on the tank
• Tank too small for the home’s water use

What we do: diagnosis and repair of pressure tanks, with replacement when needed. We check the air charge, pressure switch and settings, and install a correctly sized tank for your home and well to help protect your pump.

“My well water stopped running and I was without the well water for a long time. Glen came, checked the well, and replaced the pressure switch and had the well running again.” — Ed D.

“Glen was very quick to come out and help, super professional, knew exactly what he was doing and did it fast and inexpensively. I’d absolutely recommend him to a friend.” — Michael P.
