Shenandoah, TX homeowners rely on private wells for a steady water supply, but wells require regular attention to keep working properly. Pump failures, low pressure, and water quality issues can disrupt daily life without warning.
Conroe Water Well Service provides drilling, repair, and maintenance for well systems throughout Shenandoah and the surrounding Montgomery County area. We work on residential and commercial wells, addressing everything from routine inspections to emergency pump replacements.
In this post, we cover the services we offer, common well problems Shenandoah property owners face, and what to expect when you schedule an appointment with our team.

Shenandoah homes rely on well systems that need consistent maintenance and fast repairs when something fails. We handle the full range of well and pump issues, from minor pressure fluctuations to complete pump replacements.
We diagnose problems at the source rather than guessing at symptoms. Common issues include worn casings, contaminated water supply, cracked well caps, and sediment buildup that reduces flow.
Our inspection process covers the well's structural integrity and the equipment connected to it. We check for signs of corrosion, water table changes, and mechanical wear that shorten a system's lifespan.
Once we identify the cause, we walk you through the repair options. We explain what's necessary now versus what can wait, so you're not paying for work you don't need.
Pumps fail for different reasons depending on their type and age. We work on submersible pumps, jet pumps, and constant pressure systems commonly found in Shenandoah properties.
Signs a pump needs attention include:
We repair pumps when the components allow it. When a pump has reached the end of its service life, we replace it with a unit matched to your well's depth and your household's water demand. We also inspect pressure tanks during this process, since a failing tank can mimic pump problems.
Low pressure and no water are two of the most common calls we receive. These issues stem from several sources: pump failure, pressure switch malfunction, clogged pipes, or a drop in the water table.
We start by testing the pressure switch and tank, since these parts fail more often than the pump itself. If the pressure tank has lost its air charge, water flow becomes inconsistent even when the pump works fine.
For a complete loss of water, we check the electrical connections, the pump motor, and the well's water level. We isolate the exact failure point instead of replacing parts unnecessarily.
Homeowners and property owners in Shenandoah rely on properly drilled wells for consistent access to groundwater. We handle both residential and agricultural drilling needs, matching equipment and methods to each site's geology.
We start every project with a site assessment to determine the best drilling location and depth based on local aquifer conditions. Shenandoah sits above groundwater resources that vary in depth, so we use test drilling data to confirm well placement before committing to a full installation.
Our drilling process includes:
We install submersible and jet pumps depending on well depth and intended use. Once drilling is complete, we connect the system to existing plumbing and verify flow rate and pressure meet the property's needs.
We drill dedicated irrigation wells for properties that need a separate water source for landscaping, gardens, or agricultural use. Separating irrigation from household water reduces strain on the primary well and can lower utility costs.
Irrigation wells typically require less filtration than potable water systems, since the water isn't used for drinking or cooking. We size these wells based on the property's irrigation demands, whether that's a residential sprinkler system or larger-scale crop watering.
We also install the pump and pressure system needed to run irrigation equipment efficiently. Our team checks local water rights and permitting requirements before drilling begins, since irrigation wells in Montgomery County fall under specific regulatory guidelines.
A well that operates without regular checks can develop problems before homeowners notice any change in water flow or taste. We approach inspections, maintenance, and water quality testing as connected services that protect both the equipment and the water supply.
We start every inspection by checking the wellhead, casing, and cap for cracks, corrosion, or gaps that could let contaminants in. Our team also tests the pump's electrical connections and pressure output to confirm it's running within normal range.
During diagnostics, we look at:
We document our findings and explain any issues we find in plain terms. If we spot a problem, we give homeowners a clear repair estimate before any work begins.
Routine maintenance keeps a well system running efficiently and extends the life of its components. We recommend scheduling a full system check once a year, though wells with heavy use or older equipment may need more frequent visits.
Our maintenance visits typically include:
We also look for signs of wear on seals and fittings that could lead to leaks later. Catching small issues early usually costs less than waiting for a full system failure.
We test well water for bacteria, nitrates, iron, and other common contaminants found in Montgomery County groundwater. Testing helps us confirm the water is safe for drinking, cooking, and daily household use.
If results show elevated mineral content or bacterial presence, we recommend treatment options suited to the specific issue. This might include a water softener for hard water, a filtration system for sediment, or a disinfection process for bacterial contamination.
We explain the test results in straightforward terms and outline what each treatment option addresses. Our goal is to give homeowners the information they need to make a sound decision about their water supply.
Some water well needs go beyond routine repairs. We handle well decommissioning and commercial-scale service for property owners and businesses with specific requirements.
When a well is no longer in use, we don't recommend simply leaving it in place. An unplugged well creates a direct pathway for contaminants to reach groundwater, and it can also pose a safety hazard on the property.
We follow state-regulated plugging procedures to seal wells properly from bottom to top. This typically involves removing pumps and equipment, then filling the borehole with approved sealing materials such as bentonite or cement grout.
Our process includes:
We handle the paperwork so property owners aren't left navigating compliance requirements on their own.

Businesses that depend on a well for daily operations need dependable output and minimal downtime. We service commercial wells for restaurants, agricultural operations, manufacturing sites, and other facilities where water supply interruptions directly affect operations.
Our commercial work includes:
Service
| Purpose
|
|---|---|
Pump diagnostics and repair
| Restore consistent water pressure and flow |
Well rehabilitation
| Address declining output from sediment or mineral buildup |
System upgrades
| Support higher water demand as operations grow |
Scheduled maintenance
| Reduce the risk of unexpected shutdowns |
We assess each commercial system based on actual usage patterns rather than applying a one-size-fits-all solution. This allows us to recommend equipment and service schedules that match the demands specific to that business.
