Often it's the pressure tank rather than the pump itself, since a tank that has lost its air cushion makes the pump short cycle and the pressure jump. Wells around Taghkanic and Ghent run on the same basic setup as city homes downstream of the meter, minus the utility regulator. A plumber can check the tank charge and the switch settings together.

In most setups the homeowner owns the service line from the curb stop into the house, while the main under the road belongs to the water utility. The curb stop itself is usually the dividing point. If you aren't sure where yours sits, the utility can mark it, and a plumber can trace the run from the meter back toward the street.

It gives heated water somewhere to expand once a check valve or regulator closes the system off from the street. When the tank loses its air charge, that expansion has nowhere to go and pressure spikes every time the burner or element runs. A tank that feels heavy at the bottom is usually waterlogged and done.

It can shorten its life, because every heating cycle in a closed system pushes against a relief valve that was never meant to be the pressure control. A valve that drips is doing its job under conditions it shouldn't be facing. Correcting pressure usually stops the dripping without touching the valve.
