The Town of Willards draws its water from two wells drilled 320 feet into the Manokin aquifer, and the county's water plan notes the wells are treated for high iron. Iron that gets through can leave orange stains on sinks and toilets, build up in aerators and settle in water heater tanks.

Willards was incorporated in 1906, and about 38% of its homes were built before 1960, with more than one in five built before 1940. Older homes may still have galvanized supply pipe, worn shut-off valves and original drain lines that clog or leak more often. We also handle drain cleaning Willards homes need when kitchen or main lines slow down.

Low pressure in older homes
Older galvanized supply pipe can corrode from the inside, narrowing the line and staining water.
Orange stains and clogged aerators
Iron settles on fixtures and builds up in faucet screens and shower heads.
Sediment in water heaters
Iron and minerals settle in the tank, causing rumbling and shortening heater life.
Slow kitchen and main drains
Grease and buildup in older drain lines lead to recurring clogs.
In homes built before 1960, corroded galvanized pipe is a common cause. A pressure check at a hose bib and a look at exposed pipe usually tells you whether repiping is worth considering.
It can. The town treats its wells for high iron, but any iron and sediment that reach your home settle in the bottom of the tank. A yearly flush and checking the anode rod help the heater last longer.
The town's 2025 report shows a lead 90th percentile of 2.3 ppb, under the action level of 15, with no violations. If your home has older plumbing, call and we can look at your pipes and fixtures.
