Since 2009, Dierolf Plumbing & Water Treatment has been the reliable partner for homeowners in Elverson and West Nantmeal Township. We know that Elverson is a unique community. It sits at the intersection of three counties and balances historic charm with active agriculture and protected open spaces. The company was founded by Mark Dierolf. He brings over 25 years of hands on industry experience to every job. Whether you live in a restored property near the historic Hopewell Furnace or on a working farm off Route 23, we understand the specific geology that shapes your water quality.
Elverson is defined by its rural character. Unlike the suburban boroughs nearby, the vast majority of homes here rely on private wells. This independence is a point of pride, but it comes with responsibility. The water chemistry in the 19520 zip code is complex. We frequently see issues related to the agricultural landscape, including nitrate runoff and bacteria concerns. We also encounter natural mineral challenges like iron and hardness. We do not offer generic solutions. We treat every well as a unique ecosystem. We analyze your specific water composition to provide a fix that keeps your family safe.
Well Water and Agricultural Runoff
Living in “farm country” means paying close attention to your groundwater. Agricultural runoff is a reality in Elverson. It can introduce nitrates and bacteria into private wells. Nitrates are odorless and tasteless, making them impossible to detect without professional testing. This is especially critical for households with infants or pregnant women. We recommend annual testing for all wells in the area. If issues are found, we can install custom filtration systems and ultraviolet (UV) disinfection units to create a firewall against contaminants. You can learn more about these invisible threats in our guide to demystifying water chemistry.
Iron and Hardness: The Visible Problems
While nitrates are invisible, iron is not. Many Elverson wells produce water with high iron content. This leaves stubborn orange rust stains on your laundry, toilets, and fixtures. Combined with the natural hardness of the local groundwater, this can ruin your plumbing appliances in just a few years. We specialize in multi stage treatment systems. We often install a dedicated iron filter alongside a high efficiency water softener. This combination removes the staining minerals and protects your pipes from scale buildup.
Protecting Your Water Investment
In a rural area like Elverson, your well pump and pressure tank are the heart of your home. If they fail, you have no water. We specialize in maintaining and replacing these critical components. We use high quality, American made pumps that are built to last. Whether you have low water pressure or a pump that is short cycling, our Licensed Master Plumbers have the expertise to diagnose the issue correctly the first time.
We are proud to serve the Elverson community. We love grabbing a fresh sandwich at September Farm Cheese or spending a weekend exploring the trails at French Creek State Park just as much as you do. You might see our trucks driving past the Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site on the way to a service call. We support the local businesses and landmarks that make this area special. Our goal is to ensure your water quality allows you to enjoy the peaceful, rural lifestyle you chose. You can always check the EPA private well resources for more information on maintaining your system.

Common Questions from Elverson Homeowners
How often should I test my well in Elverson?
Because of the surrounding agriculture, we recommend testing for bacteria (coliform) and nitrates every single year. It is also smart to test for lead, iron, and pH every 2 to 3 years to ensure your treatment system is working correctly.
My water smells like rotten eggs. Can you fix that?
That smell is typically sulfur gas. It is naturally occurring in some Elverson wells but can also indicate bacteria in your water heater. We can diagnose the source of the smell and install a sulfur filtration system to eliminate it.
Do you service well pumps?
Yes. We are fully licensed well pump installers. Whether you have no water, low pressure, or a surging pump, we can pull and replace your well pump to get your water flowing again quickly.
