The Initial Steps: Planning for Well Drilling

The journey to securing a reliable source of groundwater begins with careful planning. Here’s what’s involved:

  • Consultation with Experts: Reach out to reputable water well drillers for an on-site consultation.
  • Geological Survey: Understand your property’s geological makeup to assess natural resources like groundwater availability.
  • Optimal Location Determination: Identify the best spot for accessing groundwater effectively.
  • Permit Acquisition: Secure the necessary permits to comply with legal standards and environmental guidelines.

The Well Drilling Process: Tapping into Natural Resources

Here’s a step-by-step look at the well drilling process, which is essential for harnessing groundwater:

  1. Site Selection and Permitting: Choose an appropriate location for the well and obtain the required permits, ensuring responsible use of natural resources.
  2. Drilling: Employ rotary drills to reach the groundwater, guided by geological insights.
  3. Casing Installation: Use steel or durable plastic casing to protect the well from collapse and prevent groundwater contamination.
  4. Well Screen Placement: In sandy or gravel-heavy areas or where high flow rates are needed, a well screen is installed.
  5. Grouting: Add grout between the drill hole sides and the casing for additional stability and contamination prevention.

Post Well-Drilling: From Well to Home

Once the drilling is complete, here’s how we ensure your well is up to standard:

  • Cleaning and GPM Estimation: We clean the well using air and water from the drill rig, allowing us to calculate an estimated GPM (Gallons Per Minute).
  • Pump Testing: Tests are run if mandated by state regulations or specified by the owner or contractor.
  • Trench and Installation: We dig a trench from your home to the well site, where we install the well pump and tank.
  • Chlorination: We introduce chlorine into the system to sanitize the well and all connected piping and plumbing.
  • Water Testing: After flushing out the chlorine, we conduct a water test to ensure the water is safe to drink and to assess if any water treatment is needed.

The Importance of Professional Well Drilling Services

Professional well drilling is vital to setting up a reliable water supply system. It requires a deep understanding of geological surveys, construction details, and the ability to pick the best location for the well.

  • Knowledge and experience to tackle the complexities of well drilling.
  • Upfront cost estimates for transparency and budgeting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should you service a well?

Professional service, including maintenance and water testing, should be done annually. This ensures cleanliness and efficiency, especially for wells drilled for drinking water.
With regular service, a well system can last several decades. However, its longevity depends on other factors, such as the quality of pump installation and the cleanliness of the well’s water.

Replacement costs vary, influenced by factors such as the pump repair’s complexity and the well casing’s condition. Professional drilling services are crucial for avoiding collapse and maintaining a clean water supply.

Signs of a problem include fluctuating water pressure, dirty water, and unusual noises from the pump. A drilling company can promptly repair these issues to prevent more significant problems.

Well drilling provides a reliable and clean water source independent from the public water supply. It’s cost-effective and gives homeowners control over their water quality.

The amount of water a residential well can produce depends on factors such as the depth of the well and the nature of the underground rock or earth it’s drilled into. However, a well-designed and drilled well should supply adequate water for a typical family’s needs, from drinking water to showering, washing, and perhaps even irrigation.

Elliot Assia
Very curtious, professional, and came out to fix my well pump system in a couple hours after it stopped working. They have a great team that really worked together efficiently. They took the time to make sure everything was working properly and explain to me what I needed to do once they left. Everything in my water system closet was clean with new valves and pipes where needed when they were done. It's been several weeks and my water system is working better than it did before!
Marshall Pysher
First Class AAA+ rating from me. Professional, knowledgable, friendly and HONEST! Jake and Jesse came, realized my issue right away (check valve), didn't try to sell me a well pump. I went with them becasue of the great reviews and they lived up beyond expectation. Jesse went so far as to expain everything about my well, pump and entire system. Great job!
Patty Greeby
I can't begin to express how thankful and impressed with are with Kocher's Water Pumps & Tanks Inc. We lost water and had another company come and first told us that our well was dry, then that we had to dig up the water line underground. They didn't complete all appropriate tests to make this assessment but quoted $7000 to complete the job. I almost fainted. There was no way.My husband called Kocher's and from the first phone call they were kind, quick, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable! Through each step of the process we were given updates, key pieces of information to make decisions, and felt that we were top priority on their list. The guys were so respectful of our home, our property, and listened to us. Their dedication to helping us made us feel like we were apart of their family. They did not want to stop until every single issue was resolved, and resolved the correct way. They went through so many tests to determine what the issues were and how best to fix them. We found out that there were other issues than what we were told from the previous company. They were here when it was cold, windy, and raining. The day we got our water back, they stayed past 6pm on a Friday while it was raining outside to ensure we had running water. All that while each one of them had a smile on their face and not a single complaint. We can't thank them enough. They will be the only company we refer anyone to.Thank you Kocher's Water Pumps & Tanks Inc., you are one of a kind!

Nothing is worse than not having water when you need it. That was what my family woke up to this morning. I called Kocher's because I remembered 20 years ago when my well went dry how good to us they were. They were at my house within an hour and and diagnosed the problem quickly. Jake Jr. was very friendly to deal with and respectful of coming in and out of our home. Two other members of their staff came and were equally respectful. Jake explained everything to me and tried hard to keep the costs down. The staff when you call in to the office are also very friendly and nice. I will never go anywhere else for my well or water system needs and neither should you.

I had Kocher's replace our entire water system as it was 22 years old. They installed a well pump, tank with SS fittings, acid neutralizer, water softener, constant pressure system, whole house filter and an RO system (reverse osmosis). All of the old parts were hauled away. There were two service technicians to replace the pump and then one service technician to install the new system. The plumbing runs were a work of art. When finished, the service technician explained how the new system works, how to change the clock time in case of power failure and filter replacement intervals. The area was left in a very clean condition. I wiil be a lifetime customer and highly recommend Kocher's for all of your water needs.
