The person that installed our well gave us some reasons to not want to continue to use him.
My water to the house is not working and the resets we usually do under the house are not working.
The reserve tank is tripping off a few minutes after being turned back on.

Does anyone have a well repairman that they could recommend??

Don't know where you are located, but we use Eddies Well and Pump service in Hillsborough, and have found him to be as good a local business as you'd want to work with.

In the Bahama/Rougemont/Timberlake area (north of Durham) we call on Danny Tackett plumbing out of Timberlake. He worked on our well in the past...replaced blown submersible motor/pump and fixed our reserve-pressure tank. very satisfied. Honest and fair priced. 919 730 5461

Sounds like the pressure switch or pressure tank. MY advice to anyone with a well is to get to know them yourself because they never fail at a convient time. They are not very complicated. Pump, pressure tank, pressure switch, some misc pipe and fitting's. Also to keep them clean use technical or food grade Hydrogen perioxide (H2O2 -------water + oxygen) H2O2 will also remove sulpher smell from your water, which is the off gas from an anerobic bacteria. Unfortunately we can only get technical grade(29%) H2O2 in the area ( Fifth Seasons Garden Center.)

^Sounds like it's a problem with the water and not the well components.
