What's your water doing?

Tap the one that sounds like your house. Each one explains what's going on, what you can check yourself, and when it's time to call.

How a call goes

No forms, no queue, no call center reading a script.

  1. 1

    You call, a person answers

    Don or someone who works with him picks up, day or night.

  2. 2

    A few quick questions

    What you're seeing, what the gauge says, whether the breaker tripped. Sometimes that's the whole fix, and you'll hear it.

  3. 3

    The truck comes stocked

    Common pumps, pressure tanks, switches and controls ride along, so the fix can happen in the same visit.

  4. 4

    Straight answers

    You see what failed and why, and you get the options before anything is replaced.

Woke up to no water due to bad wiring on my pump. Don showed up within the hour of calling. Great service and great work. Highly recommend using him for any and all, of your well pump service needs.

Where we work

From the shop on Warwick Turnpike in Hewitt, across four New Jersey counties and over the line into Orange County, New York.

Every morning at 6:30

The Wake Up Water Check

One ten-second check on your well every morning: the gauge, the first glass, the shower test. It's how you catch a problem on a Tuesday instead of finding it on a Saturday with no water.

Today's Wake Up Water Check card

Save the well guy before you need him

When the water stops, nobody wants to compare search results with a kitchen full of dishes. One tap puts Don in your contacts, today, while nothing's wrong.

Save Don to your contacts

Works on iPhone and Android. Adds one contact card, nothing else.

Questions people ask

Do you answer the phone at night and on weekends?

Yes. The phone is answered around the clock, including weekends and holidays. If your water is out, call 973-853-1550 whatever the hour.

Do you drill wells?

No. Ackerman works on everything from the well cap to the tap: pumps, pressure tanks, switches, controls and the lines between them. If a well itself needs to be drilled or deepened, Don will tell you straight and point you to the right people.

How long does a pump replacement take?

Most submersible pump replacements are finished the same day. The truck carries the common pump sizes, pressure tanks and controls, so a diagnosis and a replacement can happen in one visit.

Which brands do you install?

Grundfos and Goulds well pumps and Amtrol pressure tanks. They're the brands Ackerman has sold and serviced for years, and parts for them are easy to get when you need them.

Where do you work?

Passaic, Bergen, Sussex and Morris counties in New Jersey and Orange County, New York, from the shop at 735 Warwick Turnpike in Hewitt.

Who will I talk to when I call?

Don Slater Jr., who has run Ackerman since 1991, or someone who works alongside him. Not a call center.
