A family business that answers its own phone

Ackerman Pump Company was founded in 1952 by the Harry Ackerman family. Don Slater Jr. has run it since 1991, and plenty of customers have met his dad on a job too.

What we do, and what we don't

Ackerman works on the part of a well you depend on every day: the pump in the ground, the pressure tank in the basement, and the switches, controls and lines that connect them. We don't drill wells. When a well needs to be drilled or deepened, Don will tell you so and point you to the right people.

How we work

Customers mention the same things in their reviews again and again. Don shows up when he says he will. He shows you what failed. When it's a twenty dollar part and not a new pump, he says so. When the pump is eighteen years old and the wire just broke, he gives you both options and lets you choose.

The truck carries the common pumps, pressure tanks and controls, so most repairs and replacements happen in one visit. The shop is on Warwick Turnpike in Hewitt, which puts most of North Jersey's well country within a short drive.

Great experience with Lakeland Water Pump. Alan was professional, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job replacing my well pump. He explained everything clearly, worked efficiently, and got my water back up and running without any issues. The price was fair for the work performed, and I’m very satisfied with the service. I would definitely recommend Lakel…

Don JR & Don Sr were such a pleasure to work with. They were very responsive to our last minute need to replace our well. They were reasonably priced and reliable. I’d recommend them to anyone!

Woke up to no water due to bad wiring on my pump. Don showed up within the hour of calling. Great service and great work. Highly recommend using him for any and all, of your well pump service needs.

Water acting up? Call now.

Every hour without water makes a bigger mess. Call, and you'll know in a few minutes whether it's something you can reset or something Don needs to come out for.
