The pressure can be adjusted at the pump. You may need to replace the inlet to the home with 3/4 inch water line. If you have 1/2 inch line and a high iron content, the pipes may be partially plugged.
Ans 2 - You don't say if this is a shallow well with jet pump or a deep well (over 75 feet) with a submersible pump, or what kind of pressure tank. (all vital information ! ) - First of all, in any well system the pipe to house should be 1", Secondly, the pressure can always be adjusted at the well tank unless it's an extremely unusual set-up.
As you apparently know little about your system, call a well technician , (NOT a plumber) and get it repaired properly and often cheaper than plumber rate.
