If your well suddenly stops delivering water or your pressure drops to a trickle, your submersible pump might be the reason. Replacing it may sound overwhelming, but for homeowners in Riverview, FL, it’s easier than you think—especially when you work with seasoned professionals like Galan Well Drilling and Pump Inc. With over 40 years of hands-on experience, we’ve replaced hundreds of deep well pumps across Hillsborough County, restoring water quickly, cleanly, and correctly.
Let’s walk you through exactly what happens during a submersible pump replacement so you know what to expect.
Step-by-Step Breakdown of the Replacement Process
Here’s what happens when you schedule a replacement with Galan:
1. Initial Diagnosis
We inspect your system to confirm the pump is the issue—not the pressure switch, tank, or control box. We use specialized equipment to avoid unnecessary digging or damage.
2. Power Disconnection
For safety, we turn off power to the system before any work begins. This step is critical for both technician safety and equipment protection.
3. Well Access
We remove the well cap and use precision tools to pull the pump and piping from deep within the well. This often involves 100+ feet of pipe, especially in deeper Riverview wells.
4. Pump Removal
Once the old submersible pump is extracted, we examine it for signs of wear, corrosion, or electrical damage. We then discard it safely and prepare to install the new model.
5. Pump Installation
We install a new, energy-efficient submersible pump, properly secured with new pipe, wire, and connectors as needed. We ensure it’s the correct size and flow rate for your property.
6. System Testing
Before we leave, we test pressure, flow rate, and overall system performance. We won’t finish the job until your water is clean, strong, and reliable.
What Makes Submersible Pump Replacement Unique?

Waterproof electrical sealing
