A few of them, word for word.
Piedmont Well Service came to my rescue when I had a water emergency on Labor Day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Bryan and Tyler were fantastic from the very first encounter. I called them, they responded immediately. They put in a new water conditioning system in less than a week from the day I called after my old one died on me. They were on time, the pricing was fair and they even helped with another issue while they were here.
Can’t thank Piedmont enough! Very knowledgeable, professional. Explained everything honest and straightforward. Highly recommend. Thank you Bryan & Tyler
Bryan was quick to respond and came out the same day to service our well unit. He was professional, polite, and took the time to share helpful maintenance tips. Very pleased with his service and highly recommend Bryan and Piedmont Well Service!
Could not be more pleased with the Piedmont team. From the first call with Bryan to completing the job efficiently and cost effectively…look forward to working with them for years to come.
160 ftThree kinds of ground
Maryland wells aren’t all the same well.
A Carroll County well finds water in cracks in hard rock. A Hagerstown Valley well taps limestone. A Talbot County well draws from layers of sand. Each one fails, tests and treats differently.
Piedmont counties
Fractured crystalline rock: wells find water in cracks, not sand.
Coastal Plain
Layered sands and clays: shallow and deep aquifers stacked like pages.

Well water questions.
I have no water from my well. What should I check first?
Check whether the house has power, then look at the breaker for the well pump (usually a double-pole, 240-volt breaker labeled “well” or “pump”). If it has tripped, you can reset it once. If it trips again, leave it off and call.
How long does a well pump last?
A submersible well pump often lasts around 10 to 15 years, and some run much longer. Life depends on how often it starts, the water chemistry, sand, voltage, and whether the pressure tank is protecting it.
How often should I test my well water?
Test for bacteria (total coliform and E. coli) and nitrate at least once a year, and after any flood, repair, or change in taste, color or smell. Test once for a broader panel (hardness, iron, manganese, pH, arsenic, radon in water) and repeat every few years.
What causes orange or brown stains in sinks and laundry?
Iron. Dissolved iron is invisible coming out of the ground and turns orange-brown when it meets air. Black stains usually mean manganese.
Why is my neighbor’s well deeper than mine?
In Maryland’s Piedmont, water is stored in fractures in hard rock, not in a continuous layer. A driller keeps going until the well crosses enough water-bearing fractures, so depths and yields vary a lot even between neighbors.
