So here's the story. It was 7PM. I turned on my water hoping to quench my thirst with some cold, clear well water, and all I got was a trickle. Then less than a trickle. Then nothing. I walked out to my well pump house to check on my pump and the poor old retched thing was smoking. I quickly killed the power. My well pump was dead. I ran to the store and bought a new one. I brought it home, pulled of the old pump, wired and hooked up the new one, attached my new pipes and flipped the power switch. Success! My new pump worked!.....kinda. Still no water. At my wits end, I decided I should call a professional. Gary Willis kept coming up from people I work with and people I interact with while at work. I called Gary Willis Plumbing at 9:30 in the morning and desperately explained my dilemma. I was told someone would be at my house later in the day. At 4:30PM while sitting on my porch, pondering life without water, I suddenly heard it. The sound of Heavenly Angels, with trumpets roaring. Turns out it was a van. My wife tapped me on the shoulder and said "They're here". I looked up and behold, a white van with GARY WILLIS PLUMBING emblazoned on the side. I swear the van glowed, but it could probably be the way the sun was shining at that time of day. Either way, I didn't care. Kevin and Dustin emerged from this vehicle like Zeus descending Mt Olympus. I swear I saw little cherubs carrying them to the well pump so their feet wouldn't be marred by the grass. But I was probably hallucinating from the lack of water.
Seriously though, Kevin and Dustin were great. While diagnosing the problem of not getting any water, despite the new pump, Gary Willis himself showed up. Between the three of these great men, I now have water. Since the pressure tank was rather small, I asked if they would install a new one. Gary said if I ran to Lowe's and picked one up, they'd install it while they were there. So I hopped on my trusty steed........ok, I got in my car and drove to Lowe's and got the biggest pressure tank possible and brought that bad boy home. Kevin and Dustin had that thing installed in less than 15 minutes. The whole crew, from Gary to Kevin and Dustin, each of them was polite, professional, and extremely competent and efficient. If EVER I need a plumber, and I mean E-V-E-R need a plumber!!!! I'm calling Gary Willis Plumbing. Reasonable rates, professional staff, and just downright NICE folks! Thank you for the great work! read more
