My well is a depth of 575 feet. I need advice on what is a fair price to replace 1 HP Gould pump hung at 567 feet deep?
Pretty easy to access. Some grass to drive over...maybe 100 feet total...I get calls like this every day and here are the questions I ask.
With or without wire? Without
Two or three conductor wire? 3 wire
If three wire, new control box? Maybe new bos needed
Pump Tek? No Pump Tek required. I was told a 1 HP Gould Pump was installed in 1999 before I bought the house, therefore no need.
With a new pressure switch, gauge and nipple? Possible new pressure switch.
New well cap? Cosmetically eh cap looks perfect. Not sure if a new one would be needed.
Poly or sch 80 drop pipe? Not sure.
Easy location, or does they guy have to use mud mats to get his truck in?
In the openAlso inside a pump house or out in the open?
NJYour location will be one significant factor.
So maybe $1000 plus $1600 (after markups) for the pump, control box, splice kit , new pitless gasket, incidentals, plus sales tax on the $1600?27 joints of galv pipe. All day job for two men and a pump hoist.

He said it was hung at 567'. That tells me it's on galv pipe. Thank god we don't have to go that deep here.
This is awkward, but...
