If your home has a private well, a professional well evaluation is one of the smartest inspections you can schedule — especially during a real estate transaction. At Quality Home Inspections, we provide a detailed, visual inspection of the well system and its components to confirm they’re functioning safely and efficiently.
We are certified and trained to conduct well inspections through WelGard, a trusted name in well equipment warranties. This ensures that your inspection meets both state and industry standards — giving you accurate results and long-term protection.
Our inspection includes both performance and safety checks, such as:

Verifying that pumps, switches, and wiring are functioning properly.

Measuring how quickly the well recovers as water is used.

Confirming the proper water flow rate from the well.
These steps help identify issues like worn equipment, pressure loss, or failing pumps before they lead to costly repairs.

We proudly serve:

Well equipment can fail, run dry, or lose efficiency over time — and most Delaware inspectors do not perform this type of detailed evaluation. Repairs can range from $2,000 to $3,000, and drilling a new well can easily exceed $10,000.
Our goal is to help clients avoid these expenses by detecting potential failures early and ensuring everything operates as it should.
When we perform your well evaluation, we also include:
A 3-Month Warranty through WelGard that covers all components, including drilling a new well if yours runs dry.
The option to extend to a 1-Year Warranty, offering complete coverage and peace of mind.
With WelGard coverage, you’ll never have to worry about unexpected well expenses again.
"Great experience with Ted. He was extremely thorough and explained every detail to us in a way that we would understand. He took his time to investigate all areas of the house and was incredibly friendly. We will 100% recommend his services to others we know in need of an inspection.” — Review by Amy W.
