Wells: pumps, tanks, and water quality
Where there is no public water main, the homeowner owns the entire supply system. That means submersible or jet pumps, pressure tanks with failed bladders, waterlogged switches that short-cycle a pump to death, and water quality complaints — iron staining, sulfur odor, sediment — that turn into treatment-equipment sales rather than repairs.
A caller who says 'no water' on a well is describing a completely different job from a caller on a municipal main, and the parts required are not on a standard service truck. Establishing water source is the single most valuable question in Suffolk plumbing intake.
