Hi all, my well pump is acting up. It's still pumping but it pumps continuously as I only found out after a huge electricty bill. I replaced the expansion tank but the problem is still there so it's probably the check valve on the pump, which outside my DIY capabilities.

So I'll have to get a professional to sort it and was looking at the grant which supposedly covers 85% of the cost up to 5k which would be great. It says on the website that you need to get three different quotes from different companies to apply. I've only been in Wexford for a couple of years so not familiar with the well companies etc.

Has anybody gone through this process? Which companies did you use? Does the council pay the company directly or do I have to front the cost and get re-reimbursed? Anything else I should know? There's usually some catch to these things so I'm a bit wary.

Thanks in advance for any info.
