That helps a shop. If the part arrives with notes on its history and a few photos, the repair can be planned before it is on the bench. For a gearbox, the nameplate and how it failed are the most useful details, and a pump needs its model, shaft diameter and a photo of the worn area; our [gearbox rebuild guide](https://wolfmachinenv.com/guides/gearbox-rebuild-what-to-expect/) lays out the steps. ## The supply side of the system This page covers the supply side: the pumps that lift and move water, and the drives and gearboxes at power companies. We do pump repair and fabrication for water and power companies, and gearbox rebuilds for power companies. Treatment plants have their own page, [wastewater treatment](https://wolfmachinenv.com/industries/wastewater-treatment/). Pump work is covered in detail on the [pump, shaft and turbine repair](https://wolfmachinenv.com/services/pump-and-turbine-repair/) page, and the [gearbox repair](https://wolfmachinenv.com/services/gearbox-repair/) page covers rebuilds. ## Who is nearby The Reno-Sparks area is served by the Truckee Meadows Water Authority, which publishes information about its system. In the counties we draw from, the Census count of utility establishments is 8 in Carson City, 7 in Lyon County and 6 in Churchill County. County Business Patterns counts private establishments only, so public utilities may not appear in it. ## What to send for a pump or gearbox Send the nameplate details, photos of the failed area and a note on how the unit failed.
