TRUMBULL COUNTY, OHIO · 30 MIN FROM OUR CORTLAND OFFICE
Hubbard-area wells run deep, tied for 2nd of 23 Trumbull County towns by median depth, yet rock sits close to the surface: three logs in four reach it within 34 feet. Most of a typical well here is drilled rock, and the water in it can settle a long way down, which shapes the pump.

WHAT WE DO IN HUBBARD
Whether you’re on a private well or city water, the same crew handles the water source, the pressure, and what comes out of the tap.
Homes on city water get their report from the city. For a private well, treatment starts with a water test, on site or through a certified lab. The county's USGS record has no hardness or iron figures to go on.
Rock lies 16 to 34 feet down in the middle half of 820 logs, and the Pennsylvanian Allegheny and Pottsville Groups are mapped at the town center. Local wells finish deeper than the county's 96-foot median, so expect a long run of drilled rock below a casing of at least 25 feet, the Ohio minimum.
Three logs in four yield 10 gallons a minute or more, which leaves room to size a pump comfortably. The harder variable is how far down the water stands, and that decides where the pump hangs.

EPA lists nine lead sampling rounds for Hubbard City (OH7801415) from 2016 to 2025, for a system serving about 8,518 people through 3,919 connections. Six show a measured 90th percentile, from 0.0024 mg/L in 2019 up to 0.0043 mg/L in 2025, the highest on the record. The rounds for 2020, 2022 and 2023 are recorded as zero. Every round is under the 0.015 mg/L action level.
That is a figure for sampled taps across the city, and it says nothing about any single address. The pipes and fixtures in one house can read higher or lower, so the way to know about your own tap is a water test at the sink. If it finds lead, reverse osmosis at the kitchen tap is the usual answer.
In 840 local logs, water settles at a median of 28 feet once drilling stops. The spread matters more than the median: a quarter settle within 16 feet, but another quarter sit at 47 feet or deeper. With the median well at 108 feet, there is still room to hang the pump well below even the deeper levels.
That puts most wells here in submersible pump territory, with the pump hung deep enough that heavy use doesn't draw the water below it. The pressure switch and tank are matched to the flow so the pump runs in long, even cycles, and emergency pump repair covers the day a deep-set pump stops.

A LITTLE CLARITY
Our Cortland office (7115 Hoagland Blackstub Rd. Unit C, Cortland, OH 44410) is about 30 minutes and 22 miles by road from Hubbard. Service calls for Hubbard are scheduled from there.

Ohio’s well-log database lists 883 domestic wells within 5 miles of Hubbard: the median is 108 feet deep, and the middle half fall between 83 and 140 feet. The median well was logged at 15 gallons per minute. Drillers reached bedrock at a median of 23 feet. Your own well's depth depends on the ground under your lot.
EPA lists the city system as buying surface water from Aqua Ohio - Masury, recorded as filtered, rather than drawing its own. It also names one treatment plant and one storage tank, but lists no treatment steps, so the record doesn't say what is done locally. The city's water report is the place for those details.
EPA's record doesn't show whether the water is softened or whether it carries chlorine or chloramine, so a test at your tap is the way to find out. If it shows hardness, or a chlorine or chloramine taste bothers you, one CityLux unit softens the water and removes either disinfectant for the whole house. If the test shows nothing to treat, nothing needs fitting.
