When a well pump is the primary – or only – water source for your home, encountering problems can create chaos. Whether the pump stops working completely or delivers insufficient amounts of water, these type soft issues can interrupt your family’s daily routine.

Typically, the cost difference between both types is minor, although the cost of some submersible pumps can be higher. On the low scale, the average cost for a well pump is between $300 and $600.
