What To Do If You're Having Problems With Your Well

Call A Contractor

If you’re having issues with your well you’ll need to call a contractor to get the issue assessed and fixed. You can easily find well contractors in your area by using this Contractor Lookup Tool.

Report The Issue To Your County

Many North State counties are asking residents to voluntarily report well issues to them to help them compile information about the impacts of the drought and to help them understand their groundwater system.

Store Water

If you’re in need of water because you’re experiencing issues with your well, contact your local Environmental Health Department to see if they have any water filling locations set up. You can also hire a state licensed water hauler to bring potable (drinking) water to your residence.
