Layer 2Real jobs, their photos
Basements, yards and broken lines.
These are B&E’s own job photos: a basement treatment install with a softener, filter tanks and a big pressure tank; a softener beside a water heater; and a split poly line, dug out and repaired.

Layer 3Local knowledge
What’s under Richland County.
The glaciers left Richland County with two kinds of water. In the old valleys of the Clear Fork, Rocky Fork and Black Fork, buried sand and gravel holds a lot of it. Up on the till and the ridges, wells drill down into Mississippian bedrock: Cuyahoga shale and sandstone, the Black Hand and Logan sandstones the old drillers called the “Big Injun,” and the Berea Sandstone at depth.
That’s why two wells on the same road can have different depth, yield and water. It’s also why B&E tests before it treats.

Layer 6Straight answers
Well water questions.
I have no water from my well. What should I check first?
Check the breaker for the well pump in your electrical panel. If it’s tripped, reset it once. If it trips again, leave it off and call (419) 566-9589: a breaker that keeps tripping is telling you something is wrong with the pump, wiring or motor.
Why does my Ohio well water leave orange or brown stains?
That’s iron. It’s dissolved in a lot of Ohio groundwater and turns orange-brown when it meets air or bleach. Black stains usually mean manganese.
What is shock chlorination of a well?
Shock chlorination is disinfecting a well and the household plumbing with a strong chlorine solution, letting it stand, then flushing it out. It kills bacteria that have gotten into the well and water system.
My water stopped on a cold morning. Are my lines frozen?
Possibly. In Ohio the most common freeze spots are pipes in crawlspaces, unheated well pits, pump houses and exposed lines near the pressure tank. A line between the well and house that wasn’t buried deep enough can freeze too.
Who regulates private water wells in Ohio?
The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) Private Water Systems program sets the rules and registers contractors, and your local health district issues permits and inspections. In Richland County that’s Richland Public Health.
How deep are water wells around Mansfield?
It varies a lot across Richland County. Wells in the buried valleys of the Clear Fork, Rocky Fork and Black Fork can finish in sand and gravel, while upland wells usually drill through glacial till into Mississippian shale and sandstone, the Cuyahoga Group, the Logan and Black Hand, or the Berea at depth.
