Great company! We called Sunday afternoon when our well pump broke down. Matt came out on Monday as promised and replaced it within three hours. Very professional, highly recommended!

Reviews
I woke up in the morning to no water. Replaced my water softener filter, no visible concerns. Turned everything back on, still no water. Noticed my supply tank had no pressure. Maybe it is the pressure switch, checked that with voltage and ohm meter, that is working! Now my heart sank. Did the math my well pump is 29 years old. I made the call to C.E Layman & Son. Within 3 hours they were in my driveway. They were able to get the original pump pulled out and new pump 100% clear to run in 4 hours. Very satisfied.
My wife & I highly recommend Matt from C.E. Layman & Son Well Drilling. We had an emergency need over the weekend, and Matt came out right away, assessed the situation and replaced our well pump, tank, valve, electrical adapters... Not only is our well working again, but the sprinkler water pressure and faucet pressure throughout the entire house is better than ever. Matt was exceptional and even followed up with us afterward to make sure we were happy.
