What we do

Residential well drilling

New domestic wells, sited and cased properly, with a clean job site and an accurate, state-filed driller's log at the end of it.

Most of our work is putting clean, reliable water under a home. We site the well using local knowledge, neighboring well logs, and the geology of your particular piece of ground, then drill and case it to last.

You end up with a properly cased well, a state-filed driller's log, and a system tuned to your household. We leave the site the way we found it.

Most domestic wells across our range land between 100 and 400 feet, with mountain sites running deeper, but the only honest number comes after we've looked at your site. Call us and we'll walk through it.

Questions about residential well drilling.

How much does a new well cost?

It depends on your site. Depth, geology, and the system all shape the job, so rather than guess over the phone, we come look and give you a free estimate. Call us and we'll walk through it together.

How deep will my well need to be?

Depth varies across the range we work, and we estimate before we drill using local knowledge, neighboring well logs, and geology data when we need it. Most domestic wells in southwest and central Idaho land between 100 and 400 feet, with mountain sites running deeper.

Do I need a permit to drill a well in Idaho?

Idaho requires a permit and a state-filed driller's log for new wells, and the work has to be done by a licensed driller, and there's no drill-it-yourself option in Idaho. As a licensed outfit we handle the permit and the paperwork as part of the job, so you get the well, the log, and the records the state needs.

How long does it take to drill a well?

A typical domestic well is a couple of days of drilling once we're on site, though scheduling, permits, and weather move the start date. We give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you posted if anything shifts.
