When You Need a New Well

A new well is the right call in a handful of situations:

You're building a new home or developing a property with no water source
Your old well has run dry, or the water table has dropped below its depth
Your well casing has collapsed, cracked, or corroded beyond repair
Your existing well can't keep up with your household's water needs
You've had an old well rehabilitated before and it keeps declining

If your current well is just losing capacity, drilling a new one may not be necessary — cleaning and rehabilitation can often restore it. See our Well Cleanout & Rehabilitation page, or call (530) 565-3871 and we'll tell you honestly which one you need.

What Drilling a Well Involves

A new well is a major investment, and a lot goes into doing it right. Here's how we handle the whole process so you get clean, reliable water for decades.

Site Evaluation & Permitting

We assess your property, local geology, and water table, and handle the county permits so your well is drilled legally and in the right spot.

Drilling & Casing

We drill to the depth your water supply requires and install proper casing to protect the well and keep your water clean.

Well Development

We develop the new well to clear out fines and sediment so it produces clear water at full capacity from the start.

Pump & System Installation

We install and connect the pump, pressure tank, and controls, so you get a complete, working water system — not just a hole in the ground.

Flow Testing

We test the finished well's output so you know exactly what your new well produces before we hand it over.

Well Drilling FAQs

How long does it take to drill a well?

Most residential wells are drilled in a few days, though permitting and scheduling add time on the front end. We give you a realistic timeline up front.

How deep will my well need to be?

It depends on your property and the local water table. We evaluate your site and drill to the depth needed for a reliable supply.

Do you handle the permits?

Yes. We handle the county permitting so your well is drilled legally and correctly.

Do you install the pump too, or just drill the well?

We do both. We install the pump, pressure tank, and controls so you get a complete, working water system — not just a drilled hole.

How do you know where to drill?

We evaluate your property, access, and local geology to place the well where it has the best chance of a strong, lasting water supply.
